This federal Project Grant award of $384,459.00 from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) aims to develop a collection of Earth and space science laboratory investigations designed to increase the scientific literacy of undergraduate non-STEM majors at two-year colleges. The project seeks to create, implement, evaluate, and disseminate these investigations, which can be used in both online and in-person settings without requiring specialized equipment. This effort is intended to advance innovation in Earth and space science courses, promote the success of non-STEM majors by improving their scientific literacy, and provide two-year college faculty with evidence-based resources to effectively engage non-STEM students. The awardee, the Community College of Rhode Island, will collaborate with partner institutions to develop and pilot the laboratory investigations over the award period from October 1, 2025 to September 30, 2028.
