COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: ENHANCING DATA SCIENCE AND STATISTICS TEACHER EDUCATION--TRANSFORMING AND BUILDING COMMUNITY -THIS PROJECT AIMS TO SERVE THE NATIONAL INTEREST BY BUILDING A COMMUNITY THAT WILL TRANSFORM UNDERGRADUATE TEACHER PREPARATION SO THAT FUTURE K-12 MATHEMATICS TEACHERS ARE PREPARED TO EFFECTIVELY TEACH MODERN DATA SCIENCE AND STATISTICS (DS&S). SOCIETY DEMANDS THAT CITIZENS BE STATISTICALLY AND DATA LITERATE, RESULTING IN GROWING EFFORTS AT THE SECONDARY LEVEL TO INCLUDE MORE DS&S IN THE CURRICULUM. TO MEET THESE DEMANDS, NEW TEACHERS WILL NEED ADDITIONAL PREPARATION TO FOSTER STUDENTS? STATISTICAL AND DATA LITERACY. SECONDARY MATHEMATICS TEACHER EDUCATION PROGRAMS OFTEN MINIMALLY ADDRESS DS&S IN COMPARISON TO OTHER BRANCHES OF MATHEMATICS, AND NEW TEACHERS TEND TO LACK CONTENT KNOWLEDGE AND CONFIDENCE TO TEACH STATISTICS TOPICS. TRANSFORMATIVE ACTIVITIES OF THIS PROJECT FOCUS ON MODIFICATIONS OF CURRICULUM WITHIN COURSES AND PROGRAMS, INNOVATIONS TO TECHNOLOGICAL TOOLS, AND FACULTY DEVELOPMENT AT A BROAD RANGE OF INSTITUTIONS. THE PROJECT AIMS TO EXAMINE THE CURRENT STATE OF DS&S TEACHER EDUCATION AND INTENDS TO ASSEMBLE AN EXTENSIVE COMMUNITY OF FACULTY, ORGANIZATIONS, INITIATIVES, AND PROJECTS FOCUSED ON TRANSFORMING UNDERGRADUATE TEACHER PREPARATION IN DS&S EDUCATION. THE CHALLENGE OF TRANSFORMING TEACHER PREPARATION PROGRAMS TO INTEGRATE DS&S IS MET USING TOOLS, METHODS, AND APPROACHES OF IMPROVEMENT SCIENCE AS A GUIDING THEORY OF CHANGE. THERE ARE THREE SPECIFIC PROJECT GOALS: A) INVESTIGATE THE CURRENT SYSTEMS IN UNDERGRADUATE TEACHER PREPARATION FOR TEACHING DS&S BY EXAMINING EARLY CAREER MATHEMATICS TEACHERS THROUGH SURVEYS AND CLASSROOM OBSERVATIONS, AND A SECOND SURVEY AND INTERVIEW STUDY TO IDENTIFY PROBLEMS OF PRACTICE FOR DS&S OF MATHEMATICS TEACHER EDUCATION PROGRAMS; B) BUILD AND SUSTAIN A DS&S TEACHER EDUCATION NETWORKED IMPROVEMENT COMMUNITY THROUGH PARTNERSHIPS WITH NATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS AND PROJECTS AND EXTENSIVE FACULTY LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES; AND C) REACH A BROAD, LARGE, AND DIVERSE TEACHER EDUCATION AUDIENCE THROUGH DEVELOPING, CURATING AND DISSEMINATING HIGH QUALITY DS&S TEACHER EDUCATION CURRICULUM MATERIALS. THE COMMON ONLINE DATA ANALYSIS PLATFORM (CODAP) OF THE CONCORD CONSORTIUM, ?AN EASY?-TO-?USE DATA ANALYSIS ENVIRONMENT DESIGNED FOR GRADES 5 THROUGH 14,? IS THE PRIMARY TECHNOLOGY TO BE USED IN ENGAGING WITH DATA, SIMULATION AND MODELING. IN THIS PROJECT, CODAP FUNCTIONALITY IS TO BE EXPANDED AND CAPABILITIES MODIFIED. THE NSF IUSE: EHR PROGRAM SUPPORTS RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS TO IMPROVE THE EFFECTIVENESS OF STEM EDUCATION FOR ALL STUDENTS. THROUGH THE INSTITUTIONAL AND COMMUNITY TRANSFORMATION TRACK, THE PROGRAM SUPPORTS EFFORTS TO TRANSFORM AND IMPROVE STEM EDUCATION ACROSS INSTITUTIONS OF HIGHER EDUCATION AND DISCIPLINARY COMMUNITIES. PARTIAL FUNDING IS FROM THE ROBERT NOYCE TEACHER SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM. THIS AWARD REFLECTS NSF'S STATUTORY MISSION AND HAS BEEN DEEMED WORTHY OF SUPPORT THROUGH EVALUATION USING THE FOUNDATION'S INTELLECTUAL MERIT AND BROADER IMPACTS REVIEW CRITERIA.

INVESTIGATING THE PHILOSOPHICAL COMMITMENTS OF UNIVERSITY SCIENTISTS ACROSS DISCIPLINES -THIS AWARD SUPPORTS A COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH PROJECT AT THE INTERFACE OF PHILOSOPHY OF SCIENCE AND SOCIAL STUDIES OF SCIENCE. RESEARCHERS IN PHILOSOPHER OF SCIENCE, SOCIOLOGY, AND ANTHROPOLOGY WILL CONDUCT AN EMPIRICAL STUDY OF THE PHILOSOPHICAL COMMITMENTS OF SCIENTISTS ACROSS A BROAD RANGE OF SCIENTIFIC DISCIPLINES. IT IS OFTEN THOUGHT THAT THESE COMMITMENTS ARE SHARED WITHIN EACH SCIENTIFIC DISCIPLINE, THAT THEY DIFFER CONSIDERABLY BETWEEN SCIENTIFIC DISCIPLINES, AND THAT THESE DIFFERENCES POSE A SERIOUS CHALLENGE TO ENGAGING IN EFFECTIVE CROSS-DISCIPLINARY RESEARCH. THIS PROJECT WILL BE THE FIRST STUDY OF PHILOSOPHICAL COMMITMENTS TO BE CONDUCTED WITH A LARGE REPRESENTATIVE SAMPLE OF SCIENTISTS ACROSS MANY DISCIPLINES. THE STUDY HAS TWO FUNDAMENTAL GOALS: TO ACHIEVE AN ANALYTICAL DEPTH OF UNDERSTANDING OF HOW THE PHILOSOPHICAL COMMITMENTS OF SCIENTISTS INFLUENCE THEIR SCIENTIFIC PRACTICES, AND TO ACHIEVE A DEEPER UNDERSTANDING OF THE EXTENT TO WHICH PRIOR CROSS-DISCIPLINARY EXPERIENCES OF SCIENTISTS SHAPE THEIR PHILOSOPHICAL COMMITMENTS. BEYOND ENHANCING THE EFFICACY OF CROSS-DISCIPLINARY RESEARCH, THIS PROJECT WILL SERVE TO ENHANCE PUBLIC LITERACY OF SCIENCE BY PROVIDING INSIGHTS FOR REVISING THE TOOLS THAT EXPERTS IN PUBLIC UNDERSTANDING OF SCIENCE USE TO INVESTIGATE HOW THE VIEWS OF NON-SCIENTISTS ABOUT SCIENCE OR SCIENTIFIC THINKING RELATE TO THEIR VIEWS ON SOCIAL ISSUES. PHILOSOPHICAL COMMITMENTS REFER TO HOW SCIENTISTS CONCEPTUALIZE THE WORLD AND ITS SCIENTIFIC STUDY, FRAMING HOW SCIENTISTS UNDERSTAND AND CONDUCT THEIR RESEARCH. THESE PHILOSOPHICAL COMMITMENTS HAVE THREE DIMENSIONS: WHAT METHODS ARE EFFECTIVE IN ACQUIRING KNOWLEDGE (EPISTEMOLOGY), WHAT CATEGORIES ARE FUNDAMENTAL (ONTOLOGY), AND WHAT SOCIAL VALUES ARE IMPORTANT (AXIOLOGY). THE PROJECT WILL BEGIN BY INTERVIEWING APPROXIMATELY 50 SCIENTISTS TO DETERMINE THEIR PHILOSOPHICAL COMMITMENTS AND HOW THEY MANIFEST IN THEIR SCIENTIFIC PRACTICE. THE INTERVIEWS WILL FACILITATE THE DEVELOPMENT OF SURVEY INSTRUMENTS THAT ARE TO BE USED ON A MUCH LARGER SCALE TO MEASURE THE PHILOSOPHICAL COMMITMENTS OF SCIENTISTS. THESE INSTRUMENTS WILL THEN BE USED TO SURVEY A NATIONAL SAMPLE OF APPROXIMATELY 3,500 US SCIENTISTS FROM A WIDE RANGE OF SCIENTIFIC DISCIPLINES. THE SURVEY DATA WILL THEN BE ANALYZED TO TEST THE HYPOTHESES THAT PHILOSOPHICAL COMMITMENTS ALIGN WITH SCIENTIFIC DISCIPLINES AND THAT SUCH PHILOSOPHICAL COMMITMENTS VARY WHEN SCIENTISTS HAVE HAD PRIOR CROSS DISCIPLINARY RESEARCH EXPERIENCE. THE MEASUREMENT INSTRUMENTS TO BE DEVELOPED IN THIS PROJECT WILL BE GENERALIZABLE; THEY CAN SUBSEQUENTLY BE USED BY OTHERS TO INVESTIGATE PHILOSOPHICAL DIMENSIONS OF SCIENTIFIC PRACTICE BOTH WITHIN AND OUTSIDE OF STEM FIELDS, TO INFORM SCIENCE EDUCATION, AND EFFORTS TO FACILITATE CROSS-DISCIPLINARY RESEARCH. THIS AWARD REFLECTS NSF'S STATUTORY MISSION AND HAS BEEN DEEMED WORTHY OF SUPPORT THROUGH EVALUATION USING THE FOUNDATION'S INTELLECTUAL MERIT AND BROADER IMPACTS REVIEW CRITERIA.

CONFERENCE/WORKSHOP: SHAPING FUTURE STS RESEARCH ON SOCIETAL SCIENCE ISSUES -THIS CONFERENCE GRANT WILL BRING SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY AND SOCIETY (STS) SCHOLARS TOGETHER TO ADDRESS EQUITABLE CONSEQUENCES OF CURRENT CONTEMPORARY SOCIETAL SCIENCE ISSUES, QUESTIONS, AND CHALLENGES. OUTCOMES WILL BE DISTRIBUTED THROUGH A BROADLY SHARED REPORT TO THE STS RESEARCH COMMUNITY. A SET OF READINGS THAT TRANSLATE CUTTING EDGE STS RESEARCH INTO ACCESSIBLE AND INTERESTING ARTICLES FOR UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS, AND DEVELOPMENT OF A MASTER SYLLABUS FOR TEACHING UNDERGRADUATE COURSES ON SOCIETAL SCIENCE ISSUES WILL BE DEVELOPED. THESE MATERIALS WILL BE FREELY AVAILABLE AND OF INTEREST TO POLICY MAKERS, CITIZENS AND EDUCATORS. THE WORKSHOP BRINGS TOGETHER SENIOR STS SCHOLARS WITH AN ESTABLISHED TRACK RECORD OF RESEARCH ALONG WITH NEWER STS SCHOLARS (GRADUATE STUDENTS, POST-DOCTORAL FELLOWS, ASSISTANT PROFESSORS) TO HELP SHAPE FUTURE STS RESEARCH. THE WORKSHOP IS ORGANIZED AROUND SEVERAL TOPICAL AREAS: EMERGING PUBLIC ENVIRONMENTAL PROBLEMS, EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION OF SCIENCE AND ITS PUBLIC UNDERSTANDING, GOVERNANCE, AND POSSIBILITIES FOR OPENING MORE POLICY OPTIONS AND BROADER DEMOCRATIC PARTICIPATION, ENVIRONMENTAL INEQUALITY AND INJUSTICE, AND HOW NEW SOCIO-TECHNOLOGIES AND SOCIETAL VISIONARIES BECOME INTEGRATED INTO EXISTING SYSTEMS. WORKSHOP PARTICIPANTS WILL BE RECRUITED IN EACH AREA OF RESEARCH TO SUMMARIZE WHAT IS KNOWN, OPEN DISCUSSION OF UNANSWERED QUESTIONS, AND CONTRIBUTE TO THE REPORT AND PEDAGOGICAL PRODUCTS. THIS AWARD REFLECTS NSF'S STATUTORY MISSION AND HAS BEEN DEEMED WORTHY OF SUPPORT THROUGH EVALUATION USING THE FOUNDATION'S INTELLECTUAL MERIT AND BROADER IMPACTS REVIEW CRITERIA.
