This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program, titled "Promoting the Self-Regulated Use of Effective Learning Strategies in Gateway Undergraduate STEM Courses", provides $138,000 to support research investigating the effectiveness of a multi-component strategy training intervention on student learning and achievement in undergraduate chemistry and biology courses. The grant sponsors two large-scale experiments at Texas Christian University and Washington University in St. Louis under the direction of Drs. Uma Tauber and Mark McDaniel to evaluate how the strategy training impacts student knowledge, beliefs, self-regulated learning behavior, exam performance, and persistence in science. The research aims to address barriers preventing student use of effective learning strategies like retrieval practice, self-explanation, and distributed practice when studying independently. Findings seek to improve undergraduate science education outcomes, particularly for underrepresented groups in STEM fields.
