Project Grant 2545312
- 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 National Science Foundation (NSF) STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) project grant award of $478,433 to the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC-CH) aims to develop statistical procedures to improve the internal validity of STEM education impact evaluations. The 3-year project from July 2024 to June 2027 will focus on quantifying how the choice of outcome measures affects the conclusions of STEM education research studies. Key products will include new robust statistical...
- North Carolina State University received a $459,848 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation under the STEM Education (formerly Education and Human Resources) federal grant program (CFDA 47.076) to develop and evaluate a professional development model for secondary mathematics teachers serving linguistically marginalized students. Over a three-year period from August 1, 2023 through July 31, 2026, the university will design workshops and provide video-coaching to support...
- This Project Grant award of $548,223 from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) supports the University of North Carolina at Charlotte in designing meaningful learning experiences to develop statistical literacy in secondary mathematics students. The project examines how to foster critical statistical reasoning and thinking skills that help students interpret and explain social phenomena using data analysis. The focus is on creating an empirical theory of...
- This $237,013 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) supports a collaborative research project to improve undergraduate mathematics instruction through a values-centered collaboration between mathematics education researchers and mathematics instructors. The project aims to: 1) characterize instructors' norms and values around mathematical definitions and identify barriers/supports in communicating them to students; 2) identify...
- This federal Project Grant award of $922,923 from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) supports a comprehensive meta-analysis of research on supplemental mathematics interventions for students with mathematics difficulties. The study, conducted by Georgia State University Research Foundation Inc., aims to identify the most effective instructional approaches, learning environments, and implementation practices that consistently produce positive outcomes for...
- This $750,000 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) aims to improve mathematics education for pre-service K-8 teachers at Arizona State University. The project will integrate visual computing technology and the engineering design process into an upper-division mathematics methods course, engaging approximately 180 pre-service teachers per year. Research will study the effectiveness of this interdisciplinary approach in...
- This $1,783,246 five-year Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) aims to create online curricula and conduct research to prepare future middle and high school mathematics teachers to effectively use web-based dynamic geometry technology tools to facilitate productive classroom discussions on geometric concepts. The project has three key goals: 1) develop online modules to train future teachers on using technology to lead productive...
- This five-year $815,789 CAREER grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) will investigate the design of an after-school mathematics program to expand conceptions of mathematics for both elementary students and their teachers. The project, conducted by Northwestern University, seeks to create a community of practice that encourages students to view mathematics as creative and engaging, while also helping teachers develop their capacity to recognize...
- This $300,000 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Undergraduate Education, under the STEM Education (formerly Education and Human Resources) federal grant program (CFDA 47.076), supports a meta-analysis of prior research on personalized adaptive learning (PAL) in undergraduate mathematics courses. The University of Central Florida will conduct a comprehensive literature review and synthesize findings across single studies using quantitative statistics to compute an...
This $426,178 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) will support the development, assessment, and refinement of "Key Abstracts" - concise, infographic-type resources for communicating mathematics-focused practitioner articles to a teacher audience. The project aims to address the persistent challenge of the gap between research and classroom practice in mathematics education. By embedding teacher perspectives throughout the project, the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill will create and evaluate these innovative communication tools to help translate research-informed recommendations and practices into the classroom and support upper elementary students with or at risk for mathematics difficulties. The project also includes a collaboration with the university's Disability Center to provide funded research opportunities in STEM education to students with disabilities. The work will be conducted from July 2025 through June 2028.
