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 engaging in mathematics activities. The project will be carried out in partnership with five public school districts in Delaware and will involve two consecutive year-long pilot trials with approximately 90 first-year teachers. The University of Virginia will serve as a sub-awardee, with faculty members Dr. Patricia Jennings and Dr. Peter Youngs providing their expertise in teacher well-being, classroom interactions, and data analysis. The project seeks to improve elementary mathematics teachers' effectiveness and retention through more emotionally responsive professional learning, potentially reducing mathematics achievement gaps between underserved and adequately served students.
