Sean Yee Receives NSF Grant

Congratulations to Sean Yee, Ph.D. for receiving a prestigious NSF grant for his project, “Supporting the Faculty who Provide Teaching-Focused Professional Development to the Next Generation of College Mathematics Instructors.” This award recognizes Dr. Yee’s dedication to improving math education and helping new college math teachers get better training. The grant will allow Dr. Yee and his team to create new programs that help graduate students and other new instructors become better teachers, which will benefit college students across the country.

The project aims to improve professional development for new teachers by creating and testing teaching materials designed by experienced educators. These materials will include assessments and lessons to help new teachers learn effective teaching methods. Additionally, the project will build a community of educators who will lead future professional development efforts. By improving the skills of new teachers, the project will enhance the learning experiences of college students in STEM fields, ensuring they receive high-quality education from well-prepared instructors.
