Project Grant 2344795

This $105,316 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) supports collaborative research to investigate the impact of video-based analysis of classroom teaching on STEM teacher preparation, effectiveness, and retention. The project aims to engage approximately 200 future and current STEM teachers at seven institutions across the country in video-based analysis to build skills in noticing inclusive approaches to STEM teaching. The research is designed to examine how this video-based approach affects STEM teacher effectiveness and retention in high-need schools. This initiative involves partnerships with local high-need school districts at each of the seven research sites. The project has the potential to yield new insights about using video analysis to prepare and retain effective STEM teachers with skills in inclusive teaching practices.
