STEM Workforce Development STEM Learning and Learning Environments Improved Measures of Data Visualization Literacy to Advance Research and Assessment in STEM Education Effective Years: 2024-2026 Data visualization literacy plays a pivotal role in effectively communicating patterns in quantitative data, making it a cornerstone of STEM education.
However, the landscape of test-based measures for assessing these skills is fragmented, without clear agreement on how to measure the key components of data visualization literacy. Furthermore, there might also be important aspects of data visualization literacy that are not well captured by existing measures.
This project seeks to overcome these limitations by thoroughly characterizing existing measures and leveraging the resulting insights to develop improved and unified measures of data visualization literacy. The research plan is organized into three objectives.
The first will focus on conducting controlled studies to determine the internal reliability and convergent validity of existing measures of data visualization literacy in demographically diverse samples.
The second objective will focus on the development of reproducible procedures for generating new measures that span the full spectrum of tasks and data visualizations used in existing measures, while also overcoming some of their most important limitations, including uneven estimation precision across different components of data visualization literacy.
The third objective will administer multiple variants of newly developed measures to multiple diverse samples, providing a strong test of their reliability. Taken together, these activities will generate a suite of well validated and comprehensive measures for assessing data visualization literacy skills.
In the future, these new measures can then be used to understand how well core data literacy skills are being learned in real-world educational settings. This project is supported by NSF's EDU Core Research (ECR) program. The ECR program emphasizes fundamental STEM education research that generates foundational knowledge in the field.
Investments are made in critical areas that are essential, broad and enduring: STEM learning and STEM learning environments, broadening participation in STEM, and STEM workforce development. 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.

TCUP lists eight funding tracks and roughly $10.3M a year, but the October 14, 2026 deadline applies to only three of them — CHAI, Pre-TI, and TCUP Partnerships — and each carries a restriction that disqualifies most applicants. Here is the track-by-track math.

One proposal per organization. And NSF is not buying you GPUs — it funds the coordination, the workforce and the faculty training, while the compute has to come from partners you have to already have.
Read articleAs of September 12, NSF had obligated $6.3 billion across 6,200 grants versus $8.1 billion and 8,600 last year. AHRQ has made 61 awards. Judge Allison Burroughs ordered the government to report by September 28 on whether IES will obligate $180 million before it expires. Here is what actually happens to the money on October 1 — and what it means for your FY2027 application.
