Through structured learning activities, the project will demonstrate how...
- This $965,105 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) will fund a 6-year initiative at Coastal Carolina University (CCU) to improve the retention and graduation of low-income, high-achieving engineering students. The project will provide scholarships to 11 students pursuing bachelor's degrees in engineering science, supplemented by a summer bridge program, mentoring focused on self-regulated learning, and paid engineering...
- The University of Michigan was awarded a $1,499,892 project grant from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program to develop curricular messaging and alignment for undergraduate engineering students. With a project period from October 2021 through September 2024, this grant aims to support the NSF's goal of ensuring the vitality of the nation's STEM education enterprise. Specifically, the University of Michigan will research how engineering curricula can better align with diverse...
- This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Undergraduate Education will fund an ethnographic study of student use of online resources in STEM coursework at the University of Maryland, College Park. With total funding of $598,830 over three years from February 2022 to January 2025, the award supports research and development under the Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics Education (STEM Education) program. The grantee will qualitatively examine how and why...
- This federal Project Grant award, valued at $751,785.00 and provided by the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076), serves to transform engineering education and enhance student retention and success through the use of adaptive learning (AL) methodologies. The project, led by North Carolina State University in collaboration with the University of North Carolina at Charlotte and North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University, aims to develop a cohesive...
- The National Science Foundation awarded a $199,998 Project Grant to The Trustees of the Stevens Institute of Technology under the Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) to develop new teaching methods and tools to facilitate knowledge transfer within engineering curricula. Specifically, the awardee will first seek to understand barriers engineering students face in applying knowledge across courses. They will then design and test in-class activities to promote knowledge transfer, assessing student...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) aims to enhance engineering curriculum and improve learning and graduation rates for all engineering students, especially those with fragmented time due to commitments outside of school. The University of Maryland Baltimore County will receive $398,687 from October 1, 2025 to September 30, 2028 to develop conceptual questions and inquiry-based, video-assisted homework modules for mechanical engineering courses. The project will implement and evaluate the effectiveness of these homework modules, and make modifications based on student feedback to further improve student learning outcomes. The goal is to advance understanding of engaging engineering curricula and methodologies to better support student learning and produce well-prepared engineering professionals to serve national interests.
