This $161,977 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) program will fund a project at San Jose State University to modernize undergraduate physics teaching laboratories. The project will secure wireless sensors and other modern equipment for physics teaching labs, allowing an estimated 1,000 students and 20 faculty to efficiently collect data so they can focus on understanding the physics concepts. The goals are to enrich the learning and experiences of undergraduate students by upgrading critical lab equipment and enabling students to collect and analyze data directly on their own devices. The project will assess the impact by monitoring student outcomes and gathering feedback. This grant aligns with the STEM Education program's objectives to improve STEM learning experiences and enhance workforce development.
