The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $175,000 Project Grant under the STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) program to Tennessee State University (TSU), a Historically Black College and University (HBCU). The grant supports a 2-year project to examine the use of augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) technology, coupled with a project-oriented CDIO (Conceive, Design, Implement, Operate) educational approach, to improve learning outcomes in mathematics, civil and architectural engineering courses at TSU. The research team aims to develop and implement AR/VR modules that provide immersive, hands-on learning experiences for students, with the goal of enhancing their technical skills, engagement, and knowledge retention in STEM disciplines. This initiative seeks to contribute to the broader field of STEM education, particularly at HBCUs, by fostering a more effective and engaging learning environment.
