Project Grant 2530446
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) provides $499,999 to the University of Delaware to conduct a systematic review of research on teacher professional learning in mathematics and science. The goal is to develop a new, next-generation framework (theory of change) that will inform efforts to improve the quality of STEM teacher professional development programs nationwide. The 3-year synthesis project involves a...
- 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 $418,466 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) will enable researchers at the California State University, East Bay Foundation, Inc. to examine how educators and decision-makers reason about complex causal models and the adoption of evidence-based practices in education. The 3-year project will use qualitative interviews and experimental studies to investigate why individuals sometimes resist adopting research-based practices that...
- This $300,000 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) supports research at Cal Poly Corporation to characterize undergraduate STEM research experiences and student outcomes. The three-year award aims to develop and validate a multi-dimensional measure of the work design structure of academic-year undergraduate research experiences. Researchers will adapt an established work design survey from organizational psychology for the STEM research...
- This federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) provides $1,389,237 to The Regents of the University of Colorado to investigate how informal STEM educators in settings like museums, libraries, and community organizations negotiate, redesign, and repair organizational and community infrastructures to support innovations in learning with computing. The research focuses on understanding the supports that informal STEM and computing...
- This federal Project Grant award of $123,502.00 from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) aims to advance understanding of the role departments play in transforming undergraduate STEM education. The award, with a performance period from August 1, 2025 to December 31, 2025, funds a collaborative research effort led by the University of Southern Mississippi in partnership with the University of Colorado at Boulder, Colorado State University, and Western Michigan...
- This $1,697,005 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) program will support the American Educational Research Association (AERA) in advancing knowledge related to STEM education through a multi-faceted research and training program. The key components include: Dissertation grants and small research grants to support fundamental STEM education research based on secondary data analysis of large-scale datasets. This will build research and...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) will examine co-design as a mechanism for transforming foundational research into usable K-12 STEM education interventions, and scaling and sustaining those interventions within diverse school systems. The $444,671 award, effective September 1, 2025 through August 31, 2028, will study a sample of 100 NSF-funded projects that engaged in co-design to develop STEM innovations. The project aims to...
- The National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) awarded a $307,850 Project Grant to Princeton University on September 1, 2025 to examine how educators and decision-makers reason about complex causal models and the adoption of evidence-based practices in education. Using a combination of qualitative interviews and experimental studies, the project will investigate why individuals sometimes resist adopting research-based practices with varying effectiveness across...
- This $247,817 Project Grant award, made by the National Science Foundation's Division of Research on Learning in Formal and Informal Settings under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076), aims to examine how K-12 teachers engage with and apply professional learning content in their classroom practice. The study employs a narrative inquiry approach to explore teachers' understanding, decision-making, and contextual factors that shape their implementation of research-based instructional...
This $251,349 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) will support a research project to examine the strengths and limitations of a widely used framework for translating education research into effective classroom practices. The University of Denver, the awardee, will conduct a systematic review of this framework, gathering insights through literature synthesis, interviews, and stakeholder engagement. The goal is to identify common challenges, misinterpretations, and opportunities for improving the framework to enable more efficient, scientifically valid, and scalable educational solutions. The findings from this 3-year project are intended to inform future framework design and support the development of improved programs, practices, and policies for educating the nation's diverse learners and educators.
