Project Grant 2501105
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) provides $499,997 to conduct a meta-analysis on the relationships between teacher support, student engagement, and mathematics achievement. The principal investigator and her team at the American Institutes for Research in the Behavioral Sciences (AIR) will systematically review and meta-analyze existing evidence on the Instructional-Relational Model of student engagement and math achievement....
- This $640,000 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) will fund a 9-month training institute to improve the methodological skills of STEM education researchers for conducting modern meta-analyses. The institute will provide online pre-workshop activities, a 5-day in-person intensive workshop, and post-workshop support to enable participants to develop meta-analysis research projects that explore the effectiveness of STEM education...
- This $750,000 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) aims to improve mathematics education for pre-service K-8 teachers at Arizona State University. The project will integrate visual computing technology and the engineering design process into an upper-division mathematics methods course, engaging approximately 180 pre-service teachers per year. Research will study the effectiveness of this interdisciplinary approach in...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) provides $329,768.00 to the Regents of the University of Michigan to conduct research on the long-term impact of a secondary mathematics summer program. The study will examine how the program influenced the mathematics identity, STEM career participation, and economic outcomes of former participants over 25 years old. The research aims to provide insights into strengthening STEM trajectories...
- This $300,000 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Undergraduate Education, under the STEM Education (formerly Education and Human Resources) federal grant program (CFDA 47.076), supports a meta-analysis of prior research on personalized adaptive learning (PAL) in undergraduate mathematics courses. The University of Central Florida will conduct a comprehensive literature review and synthesize findings across single studies using quantitative statistics to compute an...
- This $1.4 million Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) will support Fort Valley State University's "Driving Math Competency through STEM Modeling" initiative from October 2022 through September 2028. The project aims to increase degree completion among low-income, high-achieving undergraduates pursuing bachelor's degrees in mathematics. Specifically, it will provide scholarships for 30 unique students over six years, with 12...
- This $426,178 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) will support the development, assessment, and refinement of "Key Abstracts" - concise, infographic-type resources for communicating mathematics-focused practitioner articles to a teacher audience. The project aims to address the persistent challenge of the gap between research and classroom practice in mathematics education. By embedding teacher perspectives throughout the...
- This Project Grant award of $736,187 from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) supports research to determine why observing an instructor draw diagrams during STEM lessons, particularly in video-based instruction, helps students learn better. The University of Georgia Research Foundation will conduct a series of experiments to systematically test two main explanations: attentional guidance and action observation. The findings are expected to contribute...
- This $237,013 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) supports a collaborative research project to improve undergraduate mathematics instruction through a values-centered collaboration between mathematics education researchers and mathematics instructors. The project aims to: 1) characterize instructors' norms and values around mathematical definitions and identify barriers/supports in communicating them to students; 2) identify...
- This $515,428 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) program supports the development of new statistical methods and research tools for conducting small-sample studies of teaching and learning in STEM fields. The research project, led by the University of Cincinnati, aims to derive new estimation procedures for cross-classified structural equation models that can generate robust findings from studies with smaller sample sizes, which is a...
This federal Project Grant award of $922,923 from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) supports a comprehensive meta-analysis of research on supplemental mathematics interventions for students with mathematics difficulties. The study, conducted by Georgia State University Research Foundation Inc., aims to identify the most effective instructional approaches, learning environments, and implementation practices that consistently produce positive outcomes for struggling mathematics learners. The goal is to provide clear, evidence-based guidance to educators, school leaders, researchers, and policymakers on designing and delivering effective mathematics support within multi-tiered systems of support. The project will analyze group-design and single-case design studies to examine how malleable instructional features, such as intervention dosage and delivery mode, impact student learning and engagement with complex mathematical concepts. The award period runs from September 1, 2025 to August 31, 2028.
