It has been a great privilege to facilitate the sharing of resources, research, presentations, career opportunities, and LNC conferences, as well as provide national and international dissemination of project work conducted by those in NSF’s MSP and STEM+C programs. We extend our sincere thanks for your participation and support over the years.

In 2000, <em><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif">How People Learn: Brain, Mind, Experience, and School: Expanded Edition</span></em> was published and its influence has been wide and deep. The report summarized insights on the nature of learning in school-aged children; described principles for the design of effective learning environments; and provided examples of how that could be implemented in the classroom. Since then, researchers have continued to investigate the nature of learning and have generated new findings related to the neurological processes involved in learning, individual and cultural variability related to learning, and educational technologies. In addition to expanding scientific understanding of the mechanisms of learning and how the brain adapts throughout the lifespan, there have been important discoveries about influences on learning, particularly sociocultural factors and the structure of learning environments. <em><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif">How People Learn II: Learners, Contexts, and Cultures</span></em> provides a much-needed update incorporating insights gained from this research over the past decade. The book expands on the foundation laid out in the 2000 report and takes an in-depth look at the constellation of influences that affect individual learning. How People Learn II will become an indispensable resource to understand learning throughout the lifespan for educators of students and adults."<br><br>MSPnet Location: </span><strong><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#96b05e">Library >> Teaching and Learning </span></strong><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#626262"><br><a href="http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001ETrCZRAy2Myntw0vhwrmLKxGjBZVvUMWz9enzVAKtaj8nkcFUKleCRDdYkQCjjD36J9dIBagIonXVga7gdsme3D3Q3GjNknZa2eeRdbtom-VgU3MBnjgCMCvFVkcxN1vsr_NP8csWmWEFGuDzFfO3yfTlwlf0GWSXAyxYCQJ_UBWdbajjmiYK9CMzosFySfq&c=P1tdgDypP2w2CQUBwAgf1BlUl1D3yuk1DJcoWFgXS_CpK-vKwiye2g==&ch=ZxvQTTuujWaTZEY2VxiuIgEOBd91bRZ0hEDhHwN9s1qL0CsjlQ2UsQ=="><span style="color:#466c9e">http://hub.mspnet.org/index.cfm/33650</span></a><br><br><br><strong><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif">2.

However, most studies investigate only a small number of these characteristics, likely underestimating the overall contribution. In this paper, we use a set of 28 teacher-level predictors drawn from multiple research traditions to explain teacher-level variation in student outcomes. These predictors collectively explain 28% of teacher-level variability in state standardized math test scores and 40% in a predictor-aligned math test. In addition, each individual predictor explains only a small, relatively unique portion of the total teacher-level variability.

Long-standing achievement gaps persist despite large-scale legislative changes at the federal and state levels, and American students continue to show poorer performance on international tests compared to peers in other developed nations. These and other factors have resulted in the creation of new accreditation standards for teacher education programs. These standards, developed by the Council for the Accreditation of Education Programs (CAEP), require teacher education programs to demonstrate their graduates are capable of having strong positive effects on student learning. The data and methods required to evaluate the effectiveness of teacher education programs ought to be informed by well-established scientific methods that have evolved in the science of psychology, which at its core addresses the measurement of behavior. Recent work highlights the potential utility of three methods for assessing teacher education program effectiveness: (1) value-added assess- ments of student achievement, (2) standardized observation protocols, and (3) surveys of teacher performance. These methodologies can be used by institutions to demonstrate that the teacher candidates who complete their programs are well prepared to support student learning. In this light, we discuss the evaluation of teacher education programs using these three methodologies, highlight the utility and limitations of each of these methodologies for evaluating teacher education programs, and provide a set of recommendations for their optimal use by teacher education programs and other stakeholders in teacher preparation, including states and professional associations."<br><br>MSPnet Location: </span><strong><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#96b05e">Library >> Ed Change & Policy </span></strong><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#626262"><br><a href="http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001ETrCZRAy2Myntw0vhwrmLKxGjBZVvUMWz9enzVAKtaj8nkcFUKleCQSDicUEfZyDx3wX_KxolHHqqNo2lD8081YxhZ906sph9g-dDJaSNDcBo6-MzbEXIY5LbDuYe3El-CtBvw_uJiYGUODHuT-n9i6NpNxJvsOwnE53q8L86ao6-lrAP3DJbm1U3VY8Tr3U&c=P1tdgDypP2w2CQUBwAgf1BlUl1D3yuk1DJcoWFgXS_CpK-vKwiye2g==&ch=ZxvQTTuujWaTZEY2VxiuIgEOBd91bRZ0hEDhHwN9s1qL0CsjlQ2UsQ=="><span style="color:#466c9e">http://hub.mspnet.org/index.cfm/29248</span></a><br><br><br><strong><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif">6.

Using a mixed-methods approach, we examined the role of both formal organizational infrastructure and individual characteristics in shaping advice and information interactions about instruction among school staff within and between schools. Our findings from social-network models showed that, while individual characteristics were associated with within- and between-school ties, aspects of the formal school organization had larger effects. Moreover, having a subject-specific leadership position most strongly predicted between-school ties. Our analysis of interview data supported and extended these findings, showing that leadership positions worked in tandem with other aspects of the organizational infrastructure, such as organizational routines, to influence school staff members interactions about instruction."<br><br>MSPnet Location: </span><strong><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#96b05e">Library >> MSP Papers </span></strong><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#626262"><br><a href="http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001ETrCZRAy2Myntw0vhwrmLKxGjBZVvUMWz9enzVAKtaj8nkcFUKleCQSDicUEfZyD9s_SsWao-bWZOh2Kor4xzPzUh3zLFtA6M-qwheRuhOPb1SVzxkpv3i8aKX1jrRET4-0Ld7Mb4INRLF4XxgFWfV0J2dPktJy8k9etX_qH4mn49lHRICAhmVa-0PFrlkQp&c=P1tdgDypP2w2CQUBwAgf1BlUl1D3yuk1DJcoWFgXS_CpK-vKwiye2g==&ch=ZxvQTTuujWaTZEY2VxiuIgEOBd91bRZ0hEDhHwN9s1qL0CsjlQ2UsQ=="><span style="color:#466c9e">http://hub.mspnet.org/index.cfm/29259</span></a><br><br><br><strong><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif">2.

Assessment instruments based on the National Science Education Standards with 20 items in common were administered several times during the school year to both students and their teachers. For items that had a very popular wrong answer, the teachers who could identify this misconception had larger classroom gains, much larger than if the teachers knew only the correct answer. On items on which students did not exhibit misconceptions, teacher subject matter knowledge alone accounted for higher student gains.

The analysis suggests less variation in teachers' contributions to students' achievement goals than mathematics achievement. However, during a time when most students' mastery motivation is declining sharply, a one standard deviation increase in teacher contributions to student mastery orientation is associated with a 40% smaller decline in student mastery goals. Teacher mastery contributions are also associated with gains in a student's seventh-grade mathematics achievement (d = .11).

The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of middle school engineering curriculum on students' academic achievement in science and mathematics and also on non-cognitive skills such as student engagement and self-efficacy in academics. Specifically, the Engineering Design Process (EDP) conceptual model is used as a framework for the engineering curriculum, which is also grounded in Problem-Based Learning (PBL) practices while integrating science practices and foundational mathematics. Participants include 6th-8th grade students at four public middle schools in Georgia. The research results show that students who have taken at least two engineering courses show statistically significant gains on state-level standardized science and mathematics tests over those students who were never enrolled in these courses. Further, the results show a statistically significant increase in cognitive and behavioral engagement in STEM and science interest. The results of this study support the idea that enabling students to practice their science and mathematics skills and knowledge within the context of interesting and engaging middle school engineering classes can significantly benefit both their engagement in STEM and their academic achievement."<br><br>MSPnet Location: </span><strong><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#96b05e">Library >> MSP Papers </span></strong><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#626262"><br><a href="http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001ETrCZRAy2Myntw0vhwrmLKxGjBZVvUMWz9enzVAKtaj8nkcFUKleCYlOiov6jxcOOEo1UHamI705SGWCzUa-L0LlzjFT4Nhp3Zbp7fvISy4WRai0kElSk0QnylpU85nBct62noBUVtkm6_PTHxYaCdsb8GnJqpLsoNOSHkgYpTEw6USiip3Qa_hcKbQxC2Jh&c=P1tdgDypP2w2CQUBwAgf1BlUl1D3yuk1DJcoWFgXS_CpK-vKwiye2g==&ch=ZxvQTTuujWaTZEY2VxiuIgEOBd91bRZ0hEDhHwN9s1qL0CsjlQ2UsQ=="><span style="color:#466c9e">http://hub.mspnet.org/index.cfm/33606</span></a><br><br><br><strong><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif">5.

In- service and pre-service teacher educators are involved in supporting teacher shifts in practice toward the new standards. With these efforts, it will be important to document shifts in science instruction toward the goals of NGSS and broader science education reform. Survey instruments are often used to capture instructional practices; however, existing surveys primarily measure inquiry based on previous definitions and standards and with a few exceptions, disregard key instructional practices considered outside the scope of inquiry. A comprehensive survey and a clearly defined set of items do not exist. Moreover, items specific to the NGSS Science and Engineering practices have not yet been tested. To address this need, we developed and validated a Science Instructional Practices survey instrument that is appropriate for NGSS and other related science standards. Survey construction was based on a literature review establishing key areas of science instruction, followed by a systematic process for identifying and creating items. Instrument validity and reliability were then tested through a procedure that included cognitive interviews, expert review, exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis (using independent samples), and analysis of criterion validity. Based on these analyses, final subscales include: Instigating an Investigation, Data Collection and Analysis, Critique, Explanation and Argumentation, Modeling, Traditional Instruction, Prior Knowledge, Science Communication, and Discourse."<br> <br><br>MSPnet Location: </span><strong><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#96b05e">Library >> MSP Papers </span></strong><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#626262"><br><a href="http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001ETrCZRAy2Myntw0vhwrmLKxGjBZVvUMWz9enzVAKtaj8nkcFUKleCQSDicUEfZyDnhoxsy0px2hq0GI5tUMyhy4ojl1gL8tAOwErXJfSuQESzeShaetAHTc_SqjKEbLpAlmejhPTM9O-uH-X9t4IS1w1C3sXNXeppgFOHPlrBj2SRwMWb_ABY3x7LUnm1mEB&c=P1tdgDypP2w2CQUBwAgf1BlUl1D3yuk1DJcoWFgXS_CpK-vKwiye2g==&ch=ZxvQTTuujWaTZEY2VxiuIgEOBd91bRZ0hEDhHwN9s1qL0CsjlQ2UsQ=="><span style="color:#466c9e">http://hub.mspnet.org/index.cfm/29337</span></a><br><br><br><strong><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif">6.

Changes in achievement goals, expectancy, and task value for students in eighth-grade algebra are compared with those of peers placed in lower-level mathematics courses (N = 3,306). In our sample, students placed in algebra reported an increase in performance-avoidance goals as well as decreases in academic self-efficacy and task value. These relations were attenuated for students who had high mathematics achievement prior to algebra placement. Whereas all students reported an overall decline in performance-approach goals over the course of eighth grade, previously high-achieving students reported an increase in these goals. Lastly, previously high-achieving students reported an increase in mastery goals. These findings suggest that while previously high-achieving students may benefit motivationally from eighth-grade algebra placement, placing previously average- and low-performing students in algebra can potentially undermine their motivation for mathematics.<br><br>MSPnet Location: </span><strong><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#96b05e">Library >> MSP Papers </span></strong><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#626262"><br><a href="http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001ETrCZRAy2Myntw0vhwrmLKxGjBZVvUMWz9enzVAKtaj8nkcFUKleCQSDicUEfZyDc-nC1_OexAT-nSRbDWFN38Q34lXHFe96DFL3V29L6fXdrAu_wBQXBDyxPYkJqyLq2jQhcXhmxGUyxKW-E_cxzi6fSjePqYUw3rEov-pCcJV7hXdC39c4EP241-G90cus&c=P1tdgDypP2w2CQUBwAgf1BlUl1D3yuk1DJcoWFgXS_CpK-vKwiye2g==&ch=ZxvQTTuujWaTZEY2VxiuIgEOBd91bRZ0hEDhHwN9s1qL0CsjlQ2UsQ=="><span style="color:#466c9e">http://hub.mspnet.org/index.cfm/29142</span></a><br><br><br><strong><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif">8.

Results show that it helps teachers to integrate technology into their teaching in a more permanent, constructive, and tool-independent way.

Tank, International Journal of STEM Education, March 2017.<br><br>"Science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education is becoming more prevalent at the elementary level, and there has been a push to focus on the integration between the STEM disciplines. Researchers within this study sought to understand the extent to which triads composed of a classroom teacher, student teacher, and an engineering fellow were able to use the context of an engineering design challenge to integrate and incorporate STEM concepts into the elementary classroom. Using a content analysis approach, researchers analyzed STEM integration across four phases of learning: professional development workshop, lesson plan, classroom enactment, and post-lesson reflection."<br><br>MSPnet Location: </span><strong><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#96b05e">Library >> MSP Papers </span></strong><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#626262"><br><a href="http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001ETrCZRAy2Myntw0vhwrmLKxGjBZVvUMWz9enzVAKtaj8nkcFUKleCctsxHDYC-wkchidHDs8K9taLgwdQOBAtGb210zO4l-0N0D2JdEAV5S2Q8TprrLAgVitPpobeSxprRyHtHusMEH1pCk8FichJdapfBgiwmoF150oO7EYwCVibLX_tTfiBg4SsDYeVmUu&c=P1tdgDypP2w2CQUBwAgf1BlUl1D3yuk1DJcoWFgXS_CpK-vKwiye2g==&ch=ZxvQTTuujWaTZEY2VxiuIgEOBd91bRZ0hEDhHwN9s1qL0CsjlQ2UsQ=="><span style="color:#466c9e">http://hub.mspnet.org/index.cfm/31774</span></a><br><br><br></span><strong><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#a95309">Most Popular Webinars</span></strong><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#626262"><br><strong><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif">1.

Organizations like the National Science Foundation and the non-profit Code.org are working to improve computer science educational opportunities for all students, but especially females and underrepresented minorities in the discipline. Still, despite that work and the work of many others, opportunities for students to learn computer science and what it is are relatively scarce. This webinar will provide participants with an overview of what is currently happening in K-12 computer science education now and areas for future educational research and development. Researchers from Outlier Research & Evaluation at CEMSE at the University of Chicago will provide examples from their research and evaluation work including a current NSF-funded research project (the BASICS Study) that focuses on identifying key supports for and barriers to implementing introductory computer science in large school districts<br><br><br><strong><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif">2.

Though many science teachers, district leaders, and state science supervisors are tasked with developing these new assessments, there is a need for both templates to guide design and examples of good “three-dimensional” assessments to draw upon (NRC, 2013). In this workshop, we will present and illustrate applications of two tools for integrating science and engineering practices and crosscutting concepts into assessments for classroom use. We will also discuss strategies for integrating supports for emerging bilingual students into formative assessment tools and practices.<br><br><br><strong><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif">3.

Many of these resources are housed in a collection of open education resources called STEM Teaching Tools (<a href="http://stemteachingtools.org">http://stemteachingtools.org</a>) and also at <a href="http://researchandpractice.org">http://researchandpractice.org</a>. They will outline how a curriculum adaptation approach to professional development can help teachers understand and implement aspects of the new vision while developing equity-focused instructional materials to support the learning goals of NGSS. These are district-level efforts that seek to engage all students, especially emerging bilingual students, through curriculum adaptation, the development of formative assessments, and the use of discourse strategies. They will highlight how research-practice partnerships between school districts, education researchers, and scientists/engineers can support this kind of implementation work.
