This federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) program provides $1,785,274 to investigate changes in teachers' classroom practices after participating in different professional development models. The 4-year study, beginning in September 2024, will examine six prior NSF-funded professional development projects to better understand effective factors associated with teacher uptake, learning, and impact. The research team, led by Arizona State University, will collect and analyze survey data, conduct interviews, and perform classroom observations to contribute to theories of mathematics teacher learning and instructional change. The project involves sub-awards to WestEd and the Research Foundation of the City University of New York to support the research effort. Findings will be disseminated through conferences, journals, and online platforms to provide research-based solutions and recommendations for future mathematics professional development approaches.
