The National Science Foundation Division of Undergraduate Education awarded $494,815 to Dona Ana Community College (a branch of New Mexico State University) on October 15, 2026, under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) to implement the Development and Excellence Through Learning Technology Acceleration Program, a Track 1 ITYC project focused on strengthening lower-level mathematics outcomes at two-year institutions. The project deploys an AI-supported three-stage approach to enhance mathematics preparation and student progression toward STEM degrees. Readiness Scholars (first-year students) receive diagnostic review and placement preparation. Progression Scholars who complete the readiness program engage in accelerated course pathways that merge prerequisite and general education mathematics into a single semester. Emerging Scholars participate in AI-scaffolded problem solving to promote mathematical reasoning. The college will implement this tiered student development framework and develop faculty expertise in novel mathematics instruction approaches. The project investigates how staged progression and curricular innovation influence student mathematics identity, semester-to-semester retention, and degree completion, contributing research on a potentially transformative approach to undergraduate mathematics at two-year colleges. Performance occurs in Las Cruces, New Mexico. The award period extends from October 15, 2026, through September 30, 2029.
