- This $900,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) will support the development and evaluation of an AI-based learning support system to provide personalized educational content for large-scale university courses in sustainability science. The key components of the project include: Designing and evaluating a system to interview students about their backgrounds and transform this data into a knowledge graph representation to inform...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) Project Grant award of $399,724 to the University of Massachusetts Lowell will develop AI-driven educational technology tools to support student learning in undergraduate computer science courses. The project will explore how large language models can be customized to enable personalized, interactive, and reflective learning experiences for STEM students. Key goals include examining how language models can provide...
- This $399,988 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) program aims to develop and test technology-based interventions to help introductory biology students improve self-regulation and learning. The project, led by the University of Colorado, will engage over 2,000 introductory biology students annually in reflective practices focused on motivation, metacognition, and self-regulation. The interventions will be integrated into a...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $900,000 Project Grant under its STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) program to Northeastern University. The grant, awarded on November 1, 2024, supports the development of an "AI-Empowered Reflective Learning" tool that aims to deepen and accelerate learning through the use of AI-supported prompts and feedback across different interaction contexts, including digital learning environments, virtual reality simulations, and augmented reality...
- This Project Grant award, totaling $750,000.00, was provided by the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) to the University of Missouri System, doing business as the Curators of the University of Missouri. The project aims to reimagine engineering education by creating innovative tools and strategies that support the success of all students, particularly in the critical first two years of the undergraduate experience. The project will use artificial intelligence (AI)...
- This Project Grant award of $298,375.00 from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Division of Undergraduate Education STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) program aims to design and implement an artificial intelligence (AI)-augmented formative assessment and feedback system. The system will support the development of STEM text summarization and problem-solving skills among students in large, introductory undergraduate physics courses at an urban university serving diverse and underrepresented student...
- This $400,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) to the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) aims to redesign an introductory computer science (CS1) course to teach programming with the aid of large language model (LLM) AI assistants. The key goals are to: 1) Redesign the CS1 course to emphasize skills like code reading, testing, and problem decomposition rather than just syntax and writing code from scratch; 2) Study how...
This federal Project Grant award of $449,605 from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) aims to advance student engagement and achievement in high-enrollment STEM courses. The project will substantively improve and evaluate CourseMirror, a mobile learning environment that uses state-of-the-art natural language processing to deliver real-time, AI-guided reflection support to learners. The project pursues three integrated aims: 1) engineering and optimizing adaptive prompts, motivational nudges, and automated reflection summaries through usability and feasibility testing; 2) exploring the effects of these features on motivation, emotion, self-regulated learning processes, and course performance through field experiments across multiple introductory courses at multiple institutions; and 3) analyzing multimodal data to determine whether gains in self-regulated learning explain improvements in student achievement. The project, led by Purdue University, partners with universities and community colleges to reach hundreds of students each semester and provide faculty with scalable, evidence-based practices that require no extra grading.
