Abstract for the conference program

We provide an update on institutional programs undertaken as part of the STEM-II Initiative at Columbus State University and describe additional programs that have grown out of the STEM Initiative. Current STEM Initiative projects include a peer instruction leader program for core math and science courses, a faculty mini-grants program to promote scholarship on teaching and learning and awareness of best practices models, and a service learning course. Offshoots of the STEM Initiative include a Math and Science Teaching Council, a Math & Science Learning Center to support student success and promote studies of math and science, a $1.4 million UTeach replication grant, and a $1.2 million Robert Noyce Teacher Scholarship Program grant.
