This federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) program contributes to building the capacity of the U.S. STEM education research workforce. The $103,325.00 award to the University of Illinois supports the PROQUAL Institute, which provides training to approximately 48 STEM faculty to develop their skills in interpretive research design and qualitative/mixed-methodology approaches for STEM education research. The institute's innovative 4-step program helps participants overcome epistemological and methodological barriers, while fostering a community of practice for long-term knowledge exchange. The project extends the impact of the previous PROQUAL Institute by providing web-accessible case study examples demonstrating the structured, design-based PROQUAL research approach. This award aims to sustain and expand this novel approach to STEM education research, with the ultimate completion date of September 30, 2028.
