- This $299,997 Project Grant award, funded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076), is supporting the development of an AI-powered, app-based platform to deliver targeted instructional feedback and professional development to early childhood educators. The research team at the University of Notre Dame, the grant recipient, is collaborating with early education teachers to co-design the platform, which aims to provide timely feedback on teachers' shared book...
- This $499,867 National Science Foundation Project Grant awarded on October 1, 2023 under the STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) program will support the creation of sophisticated assessments and data collection efforts to enhance STEM instruction and research across K-16 education. The project, led by Iowa State University, will establish eight working groups to address critical topics for ethical, large-scale data collection and diverse research collaborations. This will enable the expansion of the...
- The National Science Foundation awarded a $937,260 Project Grant to The Regents of the University of Colorado under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) to study how multi-digit number names and written symbols guide early elementary students' attention, memory, and place value learning. Over three years from July 2022 to June 2025, the University will conduct three experimental studies with kindergarteners using eye-tracking technology, assessments of students' place value knowledge, and...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) project grant award of $478,433 to the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC-CH) aims to develop statistical procedures to improve the internal validity of STEM education impact evaluations. The 3-year project from July 2024 to June 2027 will focus on quantifying how the choice of outcome measures affects the conclusions of STEM education research studies. Key products will include new robust statistical...
