This National Science Foundation STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) project grant to Southern University and A&M College for $1,047,856 aims to advance science teacher education by applying a pragmatic, iterative approach to developing teacher education program resources and tools that will support the implementation of evidence-based STEM teaching and learning practices in K-12 science classrooms. The project will identify evidence-based STEM teaching and learning practices through a systematic review of K-12 STEM education research and resources, and then collaborate with teacher candidates, practicing science teachers, and teacher educators to build capacity for instructional improvement in ways that are responsive to local contexts while aligned with national priorities in science education. The long-term goal is to increase the effectiveness and coherence of science teacher preparation programs at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) and more broadly, thereby contributing to future science teacher effectiveness and improved STEM learning for all students.
