- This Project Grant award of $347,688 from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) STEM Education Program (CFDA 47.076) supports Georgia Piedmont Technical College (GPTC) in developing a one-year pathway for high school dual enrollment students to earn two college certificates in the growing field of mechatronics. Over the three-year project, 60 students will be recruited to participate, with a focus on economically disadvantaged and underrepresented students in STEM. The award will align...
- This $1,799,500 project grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) aims to study the community-level impacts of out-of-school time (OST) STEM programs that engage youth in leadership and community improvement efforts. The primary activities include: (1) documenting the broader systemic impacts of youth involvement in these programs, (2) designing a framework for programs to capture these broader community-level impacts, and (3) identifying the...
- This $500,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) aims to prepare and retain highly qualified STEM teachers to address critical shortages. Over three years, the project will engage 24 middle and high school teachers from southeast Tennessee and north Georgia in authentic research experiences in microelectronics and artificial intelligence (AI). Teachers will participate in a six-week summer research experience and develop...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $150,000 project grant under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) to the Georgia Tech Research Corporation, doing business as the Office of Sponsored Programs, to support partnership development and planning for STEM certification in out-of-school learning programs in Georgia. The project seeks to model a partnership between the Center for Education Integrating Science, Mathematics, and Computing (CEISMC) at Georgia Tech and the Georgia Statewide Afterschool Network (GSAN) to identify the STEM professional development needs of out-of-school learning educators and create an action plan to address those needs. The robust process will result in a plan for professional development to support out-of-school educators and expand access to quality STEM education for K-12 students attending these programs. The project is focused on deepening mutual understandings, partnerships, and research and development capacity among stakeholders to ultimately improve STEM programming and learning opportunities in Georgia's out-of-school learning settings.
