This Project Grant award of $738,969.00 from the National Science Foundation (NSF) STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) aims to improve the retention and effectiveness of STEM teachers in high-need school districts. The project at the University of Connecticut has three key goals: 1) uncover school factors associated with greater STEM teacher retention and effectiveness through quantitative analysis of state data, 2) examine how teacher identity (race and gender) contributes to STEM teacher...
The National Science Foundation awarded Texas Christian University a $469,066 Project Grant under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) to study the impact of different learning modalities on science and mathematics teachers' effectiveness and retention during the COVID-19 pandemic. The project aims to understand how high-need school districts' decisions about in-person, remote, and hybrid learning during COVID-19 affected STEM teachers. It will analyze district and school-level data to...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) provides $108,631 to the University of Missouri System to conduct a nationwide analysis of the effects of state-level computer science (CS) education policies. The research aims to determine how specific policies, such as requiring high schools to offer CS courses or creating CS teacher preparation programs, impact key CS education outcomes including high school course-taking,...
This $139,691 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) aims to investigate the impact of using video-based analysis to improve STEM teacher preparation, effectiveness, and retention in high-need school districts. The project will engage approximately 200 future and current STEM teachers across seven universities in video-based analysis activities within teacher preparation programs and induction support. The research will examine how...
This Project Grant award, provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076), aims to investigate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on undergraduate science education in the United States. The $113,972 award to Arizona State University will repeat a 2019 survey of approximately 18,000 instructors of first-year mathematics, chemistry, and physics courses across nearly 1,000 post-secondary institutions. This will allow the researchers to characterize...

This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (CFDA 47.076 - STEM Education) in the amount of $150,810 aims to identify trends in the demographics and turnover behavior of the STEM teacher workforce. The project will explore how factors like the COVID-19 pandemic and the Great Recession have influenced teacher outcomes, especially in high-need school districts and rural communities. The research will produce insights to inform actionable recruitment and retention practices for these school districts, as well as guide future research on teacher labor markets. The award recipient is the University of Missouri System, which will leverage its expertise across disciplines to conduct descriptive and regression analyses to answer the research questions. This project is part of the NSF's EHR Core Research program, which supports foundational STEM education research to address persistent issues in the field.
