(KSU R&SF) aims to improve preservice elementary teachers' responsive teaching skills in mathematics. The project will develop, enact, evaluate, and refine three instructional modules that utilize AI-based chatbots to provide preservice teachers with extensive opportunities to practice and refine skills such as noticing,...
- The National Science Foundation awarded a $300,000 Project Grant to Marquette University under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) to develop a human-centered engineering education model. The project aims to provide professional development for engineering faculty focusing on affective domain teaching methods grounded in caring science principles. Over a three-year period ending February 2026, the university will examine the impact of this faculty development curriculum on promoting...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) provides $398,236 to the University of Massachusetts (UMass) to create a sustainable, adaptable framework for fostering critical thinking and inspiring diverse learners in STEM fields. The project aims to promote sustained interest and critical statistical thinking across undergraduate STEM education by implementing a novel two-course cross-level structure that pairs advanced...
- This $300,000 National Science Foundation project grant supports the development of online learning modules to improve retention of STEM students at the City University of New York. Led by the Research Foundation of the City University of New York in partnership with the university system, the three-year project aims to design, implement, and refine eight modules focused on building students' sense of belonging and self-regulated learning skills. The modules will be piloted in two required civil...
- This National Science Foundation project grant award of $905,426 provides funding through February 2027 to Marquette University for a program titled "Preparing Mathematics and Science Teachers for Computer Science Teacher Certification and Expertise." The award is made under the federal STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076), which supports development of the nation's science, technology, engineering and mathematics education enterprise. Specifically, the university will recruit 24...
- This $552,999 National Science Foundation project grant supports research on integrated science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) self-efficacy among elementary preservice teachers. Funded under the Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics Education (formerly Education and Human Resources) program, the award involves a collaborative effort between Southern Methodist University, the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, Towson University, Indiana University Southeast, and partner...
- This Project Grant award of $736,651 from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program aims to prepare 30 high-quality secondary STEM teachers to serve in high-need schools in Massachusetts over a five-year period. The key products and services to be delivered include: Recruiting and providing two-year scholarships for four cohorts of 7-8 undergraduate STEM majors in biology, mathematics, chemistry, or general science, to prepare them for STEM teaching careers in high-need schools....
This $300,000 National Science Foundation project grant supports the development of four curricular modules to foster STEM thinking and integration in mathematics courses for elementary education majors at Marquette University. The modules aim to provide authentic problem-solving experiences for pre-service teachers related to quantitative relationships using ratios, proportions, scaling, measurement and estimation. Informed by the Next Generation Science Standards, Standards for Technological Literacy, Standards for K-12 Engineering Education and Common Core State Standards for Mathematics, the modules employ model-eliciting activities and a boundary-crossing framework to guide instruction integrating STEM disciplinary practices around problem solving. The two-year project from October 2022 to September 2024 directly responds to calls from the National Research Council to establish integrated STEM content and pedagogy in teacher preparation programs. Materials developed under this NSF Division of Undergraduate Education grant are expected to benefit mathematics teacher educators nationwide.
