This Project Grant award of $299,925 from the National Science Foundation (NSF) STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) supports the development of an integrated computational thinking and science curriculum for elementary students on the island of Molokai, Hawaii.

The award engages teachers and researchers at Utah State University in a research practice partnership (RPP) to co-design curricular units that integrate the Full Option Science System (FOSS) science modules with computing and computational thinking projects. The goal is to create culturally relevant STEM+C learning materials that address the lack of community-centered educational resources for Hawaiian students. The project will use design-based research and cultural historical activity theory to investigate how the collaborative co-design process can shift the content and use of the curricular materials, as well as empower teachers to shape student experiences to match local needs and resources. The award period runs from January 15, 2025 to September 30, 2026.
