The National Science Foundation Division of Undergraduate Education awarded $270,000 to CSU Fullerton Auxiliary Services Corporation on October 15, 2026, under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) to develop and test a customizable intelligent tutoring system for undergraduate quantitative methods education. The project will develop an AI-powered, computer-based tutoring application delivering personalized feedback and support to students working through quantitative methods and statistical content in a required research methods course for psychology majors. The system will include lessons on core course content spanning scientific writing and statistical analysis, standardized across course sections but customizable by individual instructors through a user-friendly interface requiring no technical expertise. Generative AI technologies will enable lesson dialogue and writing analysis tailored to individual student needs. The project will co-design the intelligent tutoring system with experienced undergraduate quantitative methods instructors to ensure it addresses real classroom needs and constraints. A study involving approximately 1,000 undergraduate psychology students will test how well the system supports learning and persistence in quantitative coursework and in STEM. Work is performed in Fullerton, California, with a period of performance extending from October 15, 2026, through September 30, 2029. CSU Fullerton Auxiliary Services Corporation, operating as CSU Fullerton ASC, is a non-profit sponsored programs administrator for California State University, Fullerton, a Hispanic-Serving Institution.
