This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) supports research and development focused on customizable integrated science, engineering, and computational thinking curriculum for middle school classrooms. The $849,931 project aims to work with 18 teachers and up to 4,800 students in underrepresented STEM populations to investigate how teachers can customize computationally-rich, Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS)-aligned curricular...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (CFDA 47.076 - STEM Education) provides $565,771 to San Francisco State University, in collaboration with WestEd and 10+ California school districts, to design an effective and equitable professional learning program for middle school computer science (CS) teachers. The key objectives are to: Identify factors contributing to lower retention rates of underrepresented groups in middle school CS teacher preparation programs. Develop...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) program provides $320,915 to Vanderbilt University from August 2024 to July 2028. The project aims to support middle school teachers in customizing an integrated science, engineering, and computational thinking curriculum unit called the Water Resource Challenge (WRC). Through a participatory design approach, the project will investigate the supports teachers need to adapt STEM+CS (science,...
This $235,672 project grant, awarded by the National Science Foundation (CFDA 47.076 - STEM Education), aims to empower middle school teachers to integrate computational thinking (CT) into their science classrooms. The 3-year collaborative research project will involve three cycles of teacher professional development, iterative co-design, and classroom implementation of 28 new CT-integrated science activities. Additionally, the project will develop and test an AI-powered support tool called...
This $348,706 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) aims to develop and implement a curricular program for middle-school students in community-based settings. The program will focus on building data visualization skills to help students become critical consumers and interpreters of data. The research goals are to provide empirical evidence of middle school students building data visualization practices through learning technologies and to...
This $559,342 project grant, awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) program, aims to foster a STEM + medicine learning ecosystem that brings together secondary teachers in historically under-resourced schools and local STEM professionals to co-design and allocate STEM-based resources for youth. The research team will employ an ethnographic design to understand how integrating STEM lessons in under-resourced schools can advance equitable learning...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) aims to empower middle school teachers to integrate computational thinking (CT) into their science classrooms. The $564,135 award to North Carolina State University will fund the co-design and testing of 28 new CT-integrated science activities, provide professional development on CT in science for 84 teachers, and iteratively co-design and test an AI-powered tool to support teachers in...
This $692,931 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (CFDA 47.076 - STEM Education) aims to address the national shortage of highly qualified STEM teachers, particularly in computer science, for high-need schools. Over the 5-year project period starting October 1, 2024, the University of Rochester will recruit and prepare 21 prospective STEM teachers, including in computer science, mathematics, biology, chemistry, physics, and earth science. These teachers will be trained to...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) seeks to develop new technological and pedagogical frameworks for integrating data modeling and agent-based modeling into middle school environmental science curricula. The project, awarded to the University of California, Berkeley for $1,293,270, will design three technology-rich instructional units that allow students to explore environmental issues using data analysis and computational...
This $139,691 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) aims to investigate the impact of using video-based analysis to improve STEM teacher preparation, effectiveness, and retention in high-need school districts. The project will engage approximately 200 future and current STEM teachers across seven universities in video-based analysis activities within teacher preparation programs and induction support. The research will examine how...
