- This Project Grant award, provided by the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076), aims to develop and document more effective ways to disseminate research-informed STEM education programs and practices at the University of Colorado-Denver. The $500,000 award will fund two key initiatives over a 3-year period from January 1, 2026 to December 31, 2028: Expansion of the Learning Assistants (LA) program to additional STEM courses with high DFW (D, F, or Withdrawal) rates,...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) provides $400,000.00 to Florida International University to develop, test, and disseminate a STEM multiliteracies curricular model for the undergraduate curriculum. The project aims to introduce a cognitive approach to analogy and pattern mapping as a learning strategy to enhance STEM multiliteracy and interdisciplinary competencies for STEM and non-STEM students. The curricular intervention will take the form of faculty-designed teaching modules that engage students in making interdisciplinary connections. The project seeks to position students to design better integrated solutions across STEM and non-STEM fields and become more proficient in science communication. The award has a project period from September 1, 2025 to August 31, 2028.
