Project Grant 2530457
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) provides $273,510 to the Regents of the University of Michigan to investigate how educational knowledge, resources, and practices spread within and across online and in-person communities to improve teaching and learning in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) fields. The project focuses on understanding the role of "brokers" - organizations and individuals that...
- 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 National Science Foundation project grant award of $990,856 provides funding from June 1, 2023 to May 31, 2028 to explore the impact of classroom observation protocols on instructor motivation and teaching practices under the federal STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076). The University of California San Diego, in collaboration with the University of California Riverside, will deliver professional development and research on instructional improvement to 60 science and math faculty across the...
- This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program ($299,499) supports the development of scalable, experiential learning models and tools for undergraduate STEM education from April 1, 2023 to March 31, 2026. The University of California Santa Cruz will establish a new pedagogical approach organizing project-based courses around "micro-roles" that scaffold apprenticeship-style learning pathways. This design-based research aims to develop organizational...
- 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 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 $370,000 National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) program aims to implement and study evidence-based teaching practices that promote equitable collaboration in undergraduate data science courses at California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo and California State University, Monterey Bay. The project will investigate students' experiences when collaborating on pair programming tasks in the data science classroom, with a focus...
- This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program ($106,679) supports the development of a model to understand instructor implementation of evidence-based teaching practices. Awarded February 1, 2023 for a three-year period concluding January 31, 2026, this collaboration between Yale University, SUNY-Binghamton, and the University of Connecticut aims to identify why some instructors continue to adopt evidence-based teaching methods after professional development...
- This $515,428 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) program supports the development of new statistical methods and research tools for conducting small-sample studies of teaching and learning in STEM fields. The research project, led by the University of Cincinnati, aims to derive new estimation procedures for cross-classified structural equation models that can generate robust findings from studies with smaller sample sizes, which is a...
- This $379,990 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) program aims to implement and study evidence-based teaching practices that promote equitable collaboration in undergraduate data science courses at California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo and California State University, Monterey Bay. The overarching goal is to understand how small group experiences, specifically pair programming, can be designed to create...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Office of Integrative Activities (CFDA 47.083) provides $372,178 to the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) to investigate how educational knowledge, resources, and practices are shared within and across online and in-person communities to improve STEM teaching and learning. The project focuses on studying "brokers" - organizations and individuals that help move knowledge into broader use - to understand how innovations are shared, adapted, and sustained across the U.S. education system. The interdisciplinary research team will use a mixed-methods approach including social network analysis, machine learning, and field-based studies to develop a theory-informed model for more effective translation and diffusion of educational innovations. This research aims to support the design of strategies to better connect educational research with everyday practice, benefiting students, educators, and policymakers.
