This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) supports a collaborative research project to transform engineering education through the integration of adaptive learning (AL) methodologies. The $751,785 award, effective October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2029, aims to enhance student retention and promote the success of diverse learners by delivering personalized educational support and empowering faculty to adopt sustainable AL practices. The key products and services to be delivered include:

  1. Developing a cohesive curricular spine of interconnected AL course modules in statics, dynamics I, and dynamics II, which will offer tailored content, assessments, and feedback to improve student engagement and learning outcomes.

  2. Creating readiness models and best practices to foster widespread institutional adoption and scalability of AL methodologies beyond the project period, ensuring the sustainability of these innovations in engineering education.

The project is a collaborative effort led by North Carolina State University, with partners at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte and North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University. Findings from the comprehensive evaluation plan will be widely disseminated to inform best practices and encourage the adoption of AL approaches in engineering and other STEM disciplines.
