This National Science Foundation (NSF) STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) Project Grant award to The Ohio State University provides $599,542 to expand the effectiveness, equity, and accessibility of the STEM Fluency online learning application. The project aims to improve students' mastery of critical STEM skills, such as algebra, trigonometry, and vector math, that are essential for success in introductory physics courses and STEM majors.

The key objectives are to: 1) implement STEM Fluency with new student populations at institutions including South Carolina State University, Hampton University, and Columbus State Community College; 2) expand the platform's content to cover a full two-semester introductory physics sequence; 3) improve accessibility; and 4) collect and analyze data on student performance and motivation to iteratively enhance the materials. A subaward to South Carolina State University will support implementation, feedback, and undergraduate research on the project. This expanded and improved STEM Fluency platform is expected to benefit a more diverse range of students nationwide when fully implemented.
