Federal Grant Award Summary Randolph Community College received a $1.12M Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Undergraduate Education under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076), effective October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2030. This Level 3 Improving Undergraduate STEM Education (IUSE) initiative, conducted collaboratively with Chandler-Gilbert Community College, aims to advance mathematics instruction in community college precalculus algebra courses nationwide by transitioning instructors from passive, lecture-based methods to active, evidence-based student-centered pedagogies. The project will deliver four primary products and services: (1) creation, modification, and curation of high-quality open educational resources (OER) for precalculus algebra designed for active learning environments; (2) production and dissemination of a multi-episode expository documentary showcasing active learning techniques and instructor/student perspectives in community college settings; (3) design and delivery of online professional development resources to support instructor transition to student-centered teaching practices; and (4) research documenting the critical support mechanisms needed for instructors to successfully implement active learning methods. These deliverables are designed to improve student success, retention, and persistence in foundational mathematics courses while removing mathematics as a barrier to STEM degree completion.
