NCSER Crowdsourcing Campaign Support

IES will award a Contract to provide support to NCSER for a Crowdsourcing Campaign. This Contract supports NCSER’s efforts to conduct a crowdsourcing campaign to obtain information from a variety of stakeholders to increase our impact. We seek to more fully understand how individuals with disabilities and their families have experienced special education, and their perspective on the pressing problems facing special education today.

We seek Contractor support to design and implement a challenge through Challenge.gov for the analysis of the information received through the crowdsourcing campaign using traditional qualitative methods or using more recent advances in machine learning such as natural language processing We also seek to raise the profile of almost 20 years of NCSER-funded research.
