Catalyst Projects provide support for Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU) to work towards establishing research capacity of faculty to strengthen science, technology, engineering and mathematics undergraduate education and research. It is expected that the award will further the faculty member's research capability, improve research and teaching at the institution, and involve undergraduate students in research experiences. Alabama A & M University intends to develop and implement an adaptive cyberlearning system to support student education and learning in freshmen-level mathematics courses. This cyberlearning approach seeks to lay the foundation for enhancing student engagement in mathematics, leading to long-term persistence in STEM and serving as a model for other institutional contexts. The primary goal of this project is to develop and utilize an innovative, transformative, and focused approach to improve students’ learning and performance of Pre-Calculus Algebra skills at Alabama Agricultural and Mechanical University (AAMU). Central to the approach is an adaptive cyberlearning system referred to as MATH-CyLE. Students and instructors will utilize MATH-CyLE’s digital learning content and embedded learning and engagement strategies to support pedagogy and provide students with an intelligent interactive adaptive system to support their individualized learning. The impact of the cyberlearning system will be investigated to determine whether there are improvements to the indirect learning of students who use MATH-CyLE, as compared to students who receive traditional instruction.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.

催化剂项目为历史上的黑人学院和大学（HBCU）提供了支持，旨在建立教师的研究能力，以增强科学，技术，工程和数学本科教育和研究。可以预期，该奖项将进一步进一步促进教职员工的研究能力，改善机构的研究和教学，并让本科生参与研究经验。阿拉巴马州A＆M大学打算开发和实施一种自适应网络学习系统，以支持新生级数学课程的学生教育和学习。这种网络学习方法旨在为增强学生参与数学的参与奠定基础，从而导致STEM的长期持久性并成为其他机构背景的模型。该项目的主要目标是开发和利用一种创新，变革性和专注的方法来改善阿拉巴马州农业和机械大学（AAMU）的学生的学习和表现。该方法的核心是一种自适应网络学习系统，称为数学网络。学生和讲师将利用数学网络的数字学习内容以及嵌入式学习和参与策略来支持教学法，并为学生提供智能的互动自适应系统，以支持其个性化的学习。与接受传统教学的学生相比，将研究网络学习系统的影响，以确定对使用数学循环的学生的间接学习是否有所改善。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是通过基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛的审查标准通过评估来通过评估来支持的。
