This Project Grant award of $491,411 from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) program supports a research project by WestEd, a nonprofit education research and development organization. The project will investigate how to design mathematics tasks and curricula that best support the learning of mathematical concepts, practices, and language use by English learner students in eighth grade. The research will include individual interviews, paired interviews, and small group tasks to examine how English learners learn and discuss mathematical ideas. The project aims to produce a set of mathematics tasks and design principles that can be used to create future tasks to support the development of conceptual understanding, practices, and language use in mathematics for English learners. This work is focused on the critical middle school period when students are learning foundational concepts for algebra, geometry, and STEM fields.
