- This Project Grant award, provided by the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076), aims to develop a suite of tools that elementary teachers can use to customize existing open-source, standards-aligned science curricula. The $749,227 project, awarded on September 15, 2025, with a completion date of August 31, 2029, will enable researchers and elementary teachers to co-design these customization tools to support students' use of their full communicative repertoires,...
- This federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) will support a research-practice partnership between the University of Colorado Boulder and the Weld RE-4 School District in Colorado. The $934,240 grant, awarded on September 1, 2025, aims to develop and investigate a novel methodological approach called "improvement-oriented curriculum adoption" to help school districts select, adopt, and implement high-quality instructional...
- This federal Project Grant award of $992,671.00 from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) aims to establish an interdisciplinary education ecosystem to create flexible pathways into, through, and beyond data science education for a broad spectrum of students. The key components of the project include: (A) Domain Exploration Modules that integrate data science into diverse disciplines to enhance data literacy among general students and enrich data science...
- This $399,997 federal project grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) aims to develop and research improved teaching strategies to support student engagement in science civic participation. The project, awarded to the Board of Regents of the University of Nebraska, will incorporate experiential learning and civic engagement activities into a large-enrollment introductory science literacy course. The research will examine the impact of these...
- This federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) provides $449,555 to the University of Georgia Research Foundation, Inc. to develop and test a professional learning model for high school science and ESOL teachers. The model aims to support multilingual learners' engagement in science and engineering practices through the Instructional Conversation pedagogy. Key products to be delivered include co-developed instructional materials,...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) in the amount of $956,126 aims to prepare highly qualified science teachers, including an increased number of teachers of color, for high-need school districts in the Greater Boston area. The project is a collaborative effort between Boston University and Bunker Hill Community College that will provide early teaching experiences to introduce students, particularly those from underrepresented...
- This $698,065 federal Project Grant award was provided by the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) to The Trustees of Princeton University. The award is intended to support behavioral experiments with adults that explore how the heterogeneity, or diversity, of scientific explanations for STEM topics affects understanding, question-asking, and learning. The research aims to provide insights into how having multiple explanations for the same phenomenon can promote...
- This federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) provides $1,389,237 to The Regents of the University of Colorado to investigate how informal STEM educators in settings like museums, libraries, and community organizations negotiate, redesign, and repair organizational and community infrastructures to support innovations in learning with computing. The research focuses on understanding the supports that informal STEM and computing...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) provides $398,236 to the University of Massachusetts (UMass) to create a sustainable, adaptable framework for fostering critical thinking and inspiring diverse learners in STEM fields. The project aims to promote sustained interest and critical statistical thinking across undergraduate STEM education by implementing a novel two-course cross-level structure that pairs advanced...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) supports the development of comprehensive district-level infrastructures that leverage students' diverse communicative practices to enhance elementary science learning. The $1,581,066 grant, awarded to the Trustees of Boston University, will partner the university with school districts to co-design, implement, and refine materials that foster the use of research-based practices integrating multiple forms of language and communication into standards-aligned science tasks. The project aims to explore how different components of the district infrastructure influence educators' science teaching, and will result in a framework and processes that districts can adapt to improve science learning for all elementary students. The award has a performance period from Sep 15, 2025 to Aug 31, 2029.
