ISEN-ASTC-L is a service of the Association of Science-Technology Centers
Incorporated, a worldwide network of science museums and related institutions.

On page 8 of http://nsf.gov/about/budget/fy2013/pdf/16-EHR_fy2013.pdf
I finally find some language about ISE specifically:
" AISL (formerly ISE) (-$13.58 million to a total of $47.82 million)
will support fewer awards,
focusing on the research and model-building contributions of the program
to better understand
effective means and innovative models for engaging today’s young people
and adults in science
outside of school settings. Additionally, this reduction helps support
the Core Launch area, which will
include an emphasis on learning outside of school."
The core launch area is "STEM Learning" From page 7
"The Division of Research on Learning in Formal and Informal Settings
(DRL) will lead the Core R&D
area of STEM Learning, where investments from several DRL-based programs
(DR-K12, AISL (formerly
ISE), MSP, and REAL (formerly REESE) will be treated as a portfolio that
contributes to a coherent body
of knowledge and evidence about STEM learning."

>> Unfortunately, Sue Ann is correct. While the amounts requested for EHR and each of the divisions contained therein -- including Research on Learning in Formal and Informal Settings (DRL), which houses ISE/AISL -- the ISE/AISL program is slated for that significant cut. For a detailed look at the EHR request, visit: http://nsf.gov/about/budget/fy2013/pdf/16-EHR_fy2013.pdf (pages 7-8).
