This $103,921 National Science Foundation project grant supports the development of quantitative models relating student learning outcomes and affect to varying degrees of instructional reform at Utah Valley University from June 2023 to May 2026. Through the NSF's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076), the awardee will design introductory geoscience lessons at different levels of reformed teaching practice based on established classroom observation protocols. Lessons will be administered across...
Yale University was awarded a $599,692 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) to develop and test a revised measure of student buy-in to evidence-based teaching practices in college STEM classrooms. The grant aims to produce a more concise and conceptually aligned survey tool to measure student buy-in through three key activities. First, the project will improve an existing student buy-in framework by exploring moderating variables through...
This Project Grant award, provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076), aims to investigate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on undergraduate science education in the United States. The $113,972 award to Arizona State University will repeat a 2019 survey of approximately 18,000 instructors of first-year mathematics, chemistry, and physics courses across nearly 1,000 post-secondary institutions. This will allow the researchers to characterize...
This Project Grant award of $400,000 from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) aims to improve undergraduate STEM education by synthesizing and evaluating the use of active learning strategies across STEM disciplines and institution types. The two-year project, awarded to Family Health International (FHI 360), will: 1) identify and describe the full range of active learning strategies and tactics used in undergraduate STEM courses, 2) determine which...
