Shaping the future of STEM education

The Center for STEM Teaching and Learning (CSTL) shapes the future of STEM education through research, professional learning, and outreach. Our faculty team conducts high-impact scholarship in STEM education through collaborations with scholars across the globe, students, and community members. Our professional learning team partners with university faculty, educators, and community members to provide professional learning and development, collaborative grant development, community programs, and educational research services.

Our professional learning programs use research-based strategies to develop STEM content understanding, integrate engineering practices, and implement the vision of STEM education for all. The CSTL has over 30 years of experience in successful grant writing and program implementation. The CSTL is housed in the College of Education at Northern Arizona University.
