This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) provides $274,244 to Louisiana State University (LSU) to establish partnerships with public and charter elementary schools in South Louisiana, as well as the University of Chicago and New Jersey Institute of Technology, to investigate the integration of computer science (CS) into core curriculum. The project, titled "TIME4CSFORLOUISIANA: PARTICIPATORY DESIGN OF COMMUNITY-FOCUSED AND INTEGRATED ELEMENTARY STEM LEARNING EXPERIENCES", aims to design, develop, and pilot instructional materials that will integrate CS into elementary (grades 3-5) content areas, with a focus on supporting students in South Louisiana. This research-practice partnership project has the potential to foster collaborative teaching strategies and produce high-quality curricular materials that can be implemented by teachers after the project ends, while also impacting students' STEM interest and CS identity formation. The award period is from September 15, 2025 to February 28, 2027.
