- This $399,957 project grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) program aims to transform the program review process for undergraduate mathematics education. The Mathematical Association of America (MAA) will develop, implement, and evaluate an Enhanced Program Review (EPR) model to make the program review process more productive, collaborative, and focused on continuous improvement rather than mere compliance. The project will engage 12...
- This Project Grant award, funded by the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076), aims to gain deeper insights into how undergraduate students in computer science and mathematics approach and comprehend fundamental discrete mathematics concepts. The $175,000 award to the California State University Long Beach Research Foundation will span one academic year from August 2024 to July 2025. The project will utilize a novel analytical approach combining the frameworks of...
- This $600,000 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Undergraduate Education, under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076), will support Texas State University in developing equitable group work strategies for proof-based undergraduate mathematics courses. Over a two-year period ending December 2025, the university will design and implement instructor workshops on incorporating group-worthy tasks adapted from K-12 complex instruction principles. It will also study the...
- This $640,000 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) will fund a 9-month training institute to improve the methodological skills of STEM education researchers for conducting modern meta-analyses. The institute will provide online pre-workshop activities, a 5-day in-person intensive workshop, and post-workshop support to enable participants to develop meta-analysis research projects that explore the effectiveness of STEM education...
- This $237,013 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) supports a collaborative research project to improve undergraduate mathematics instruction through a values-centered collaboration between mathematics education researchers and mathematics instructors. The project aims to: 1) characterize instructors' norms and values around mathematical definitions and identify barriers/supports in communicating them to students; 2) identify...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) project grant of $632,122 aims to develop curricular packages for teaching about teaching college mathematics and build understanding of the knowledge, skills, and communities that faculty who provide teaching-focused professional development (TPD) need to grow as provider-scholars and leaders. The project will assemble lessons from a library of TPD activities, create assessments of learning about teaching, and train new TPD...
- The Research Foundation For The State University Of New York received a $700,033 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) program. The grant aims to improve secondary mathematics education through a teacher preparation program that emphasizes community, equity, and inclusion. Over 5 years, the project will recruit 24 undergraduate mathematics majors and prepare them to become effective middle and high school mathematics teachers for...
- This $400,000 federal Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program will support a partnership between the American Institute of Mathematics (AIM) and California State University, Long Beach (CSULB) to invigorate mathematics research and expand student research opportunities at CSULB. The key products and services to be delivered through this grant include: Designing and implementing research projects in knot theory...
This $297,118 National Science Foundation project grant under the Institutional and Community Transformation track of the Improving Undergraduate STEM Education program will support the Mathematics Equity through Teaching Actively (META) project. META aims to transform undergraduate mathematics instruction at California State University Fullerton to be more equity-minded and actively engaged through implementation of a robust professional development program for faculty. The program will train and support faculty in adopting an active learning in mathematics approach with a deliberate focus on equity-minded instruction. META will conduct research to advance understanding of factors influencing faculty interest in active learning and the success of equity-focused professional development programs. Results will be disseminated through publications, conferences and existing networks to provide an evidence base for scaling the professional development program to other institutions. This award reflects the National Science Foundation's mission to enhance STEM education and broaden participation through evaluation of the project's intellectual merit and broader impacts.
