The project will investigate how VR labs with...
- This National Science Foundation project grant of $299,980 will fund the integration of inquiry-based and project-based learning into the pre-service STEM teacher curriculum at Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station (TEES) from October 1, 2022 through September 30, 2025. Under the NSF's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076), the project aims to train pre-service STEM teachers to effectively utilize hands-on teaching methods through applied research experiences, professional development in...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $830,209 Project Grant under the STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) program to the Trustees of Indiana University, doing business as Indiana University. The project, titled "Collaborative Research: Scaling Up AI Education for Rural Upper Elementary Students with Immersive Problem-Based Learning," aims to advance foundational knowledge in K-12 AI education by leveraging immersive problem-based learning pedagogies for upper elementary students in...
- This $552,999 National Science Foundation project grant supports research on integrated science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) self-efficacy among elementary preservice teachers. Funded under the Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics Education (formerly Education and Human Resources) program, the award involves a collaborative effort between Southern Methodist University, the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, Towson University, Indiana University Southeast, and partner...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) program aims to prepare prospective STEM teachers to effectively teach engineering concepts and design in middle and high schools. Awarded to the Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station (Tees) for $478,034, the 5-year project will provide scholarships for 20 prospective STEM teachers pursuing bachelor's degrees in engineering, engineering technology, science, or mathematics with secondary...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant under the STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) program aims to prepare undergraduate STEM education students to effectively teach science in K-12 schools. The $243,265 award to Southern Methodist University, in collaboration with four other institutions, will compare the use of virtual reality artificial intelligence simulations versus scaffolded peer teaching to help future educators develop skills for facilitating discussions of real-world scientific problems. The project will evaluate the impact of these two instructional modalities on approximately 250 undergraduate STEM education students across the five partner institutions using a mixed-methods approach, including teaching performance evaluations, participant surveys, and mentor feedback. By preparing future STEM teachers to deliver science instruction that encourages K-12 students to solve real-world problems, this project seeks to support the national need for a globally competitive STEM workforce.
