This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) provides $615,628 to Emory University to develop, test, and research a preprint and peer review platform named EIRxiv. The platform will empower high school students to share their scientific research, receive feedback from scientists, and participate in a peer scientific community. The goal is to transform students' understanding of science communication and scientific literacy. The project team hypothesizes that students will demonstrate significant gains in science literacy, disciplinary literacy, and identity through this authentic science communication experience. The award period is from September 2024 through August 2028. Emory University is partnering with Journal of Emerging Investigators and Lightoller LLC on sub-awards to support the development and implementation of the EIRxiv platform.
