This $299,989 National Science Foundation project grant supports the Culturally Sustaining Mathematics Education Project at Delaware State University to improve mathematics pre-service teacher preparation. The project aims to connect students' personal and cultural identities to mathematics understanding through culturally sustaining pedagogies and inquiry-based instruction. It will revise mathematics for teachers courses serving elementary and middle grades majors. Secondary math education...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) Project Grant award of $1,549,821 to the University of Delaware will develop and test the "Orienting Positive Emotions in New Educators for Mathematics (OPEN for Math)" professional learning program. The program aims to help beginning elementary teachers create equitable and positive mathematics classroom environments by supporting their ability to leverage the emotions they and their students experience when...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award for $135,612, provided through the STEM Education (formerly Education and Human Resources) program (CFDA 47.076), supports a collaborative research project led by Georgia State University Research Foundation Inc. to examine how pre-service elementary teachers develop equitable approaches to noticing and responding to children's mathematical thinking. The four-year project will develop instructional modules, resources, and tools to help...
Under a $158,787 project grant from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) program, The University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA) is conducting a multi-year collaborative research study examining how teacher education experiences influence pre-service elementary teachers' abilities to equitably notice and respond to children's mathematical thinking. The research will develop and evaluate resources, modules, and tools to help pre-service teachers learn about equitable...
This $887,316 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) program will support a study on the impact of "rough draft mathematics" teaching approaches on middle school students' engagement and motivation in learning mathematics. The University of Delaware, the prime awardee, will (1) observe teaching practices that promote rough drafting and revising in 24-32 middle school classrooms across three school districts, (2) analyze students'...
This $845,762 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Human Resource Development under the STEM Education (formerly Education and Human Resources) program supports a longitudinal study to investigate the classroom and psychosocial processes linked to mathematics engagement among racially diverse students from 6th to 8th grade. The study aims to identify patterns in student math engagement trajectories, examine how instructional and social characteristics...
This National Science Foundation project grant of $481,065 supports research on integrated STEM self-efficacy among elementary preservice teachers. Led by the University of Nebraska-Lincoln in partnership with multiple universities, the award will track changes in integrated STEM teaching self-efficacy as preservice teachers transition into the classroom. It will identify elements of teacher education programs that support self-efficacy development and examine relationships between...
This federal Project Grant award of $1,785,274 was provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) program. The grant aims to investigate changes to teachers' classroom practices after participation in different professional development models. The project will examine six prior NSF-funded professional development projects to better understand effective factors associated with teacher uptake, learning, and impact across diverse professional development...
This three-year, $984,603 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) aims to investigate factors influencing the effectiveness and retention of secondary mathematics teachers in high-need school districts.

This $599,971 National Science Foundation project grant under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) supports the development of case-based scenarios to enhance pre-service elementary teachers' enactment of equitable mathematics and science instruction. In collaboration with in-service teachers from diverse backgrounds, the University of Utah will design cases capturing authentic classroom situations addressing students' cultural resources and experiences. These cases will be implemented in...

This National Science Foundation Project Grant award of $468,565 supports a research project at the University of Delaware titled "Investigating How Opportunities to Learn Culturally Responsive Teaching Influence Beginning Elementary Mathematics Teachers' Effectiveness and Retention." The project, funded under the STEM Education (formerly Education and Human Resources) program (CFDA 47.076), aims to explore how teacher education programs prepare elementary teachers for culturally relevant mathematics instruction and how this affects teacher effectiveness, student learning, and teacher retention in high-need schools. The 4-year longitudinal, mixed-methods study will investigate a sample of 200 elementary teachers from 7 teacher preparation programs across 4 states. Key outcomes will include insights into effective integration of culturally relevant practices in teacher preparation and how such approaches translate into classroom instruction and student outcomes in high-need settings. Findings will be disseminated to education policymakers and teacher preparation program leaders to inform policies and practices.
