The University of Hawaiʻi–West Oʻahu and UH Mānoa College of Education have been awarded nearly $1.2 million by the National Science Foundation (NSF) to launch the “Culturally Responsive Education and Teaching Empowerment” (CREATE) project. The five-year initiative aims to develop culturally responsive secondary math teachers to serve Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander students in high-need schools across Hawaiʻi.
Dr. Monica Smith, Associate Professor of the COE School of Teacher Education, is Co-Principal Investigator for the project.
Funded by the NSF’s Robert Noyce Teacher Scholarship Program, the grant will provide scholarships, stipends and support to STEM majors pursuing a career in teaching.
Scholarship recipients will be called Noyce Scholars and will commit to teaching full-time in the Kaimukī-McKinley-Roosevelt Complex Area in the Honolulu District or other high-need areas in Hawaiʻi for two years for each year that scholarship support was received.
CREATE will begin accepting applications in spring 2025.

🗣️ SPRING 2025 COURSE ANNOUNCEMENT!
The School of Teacher Education is offering a brand new course: STE 496 - Aloha ʻĀina Mathematics
This course emphasizes cultural relevance and environmental sustainability through interdisciplinary education, integrating mathematics with Indigenous STEM. By connecting ecological, cultural, and social dimensions, the course addresses real-world issues such as sustainability and resource management. By connecting mathematics to environmental science, history, and cultural knowledge, students experience a rigorous learning approach rooted in place and community. The course focuses on mathematical modeling, geometry, statistics, problem-solving, and learning theory. Students will design a unit plan that frames mathematics as a culturally grounded tool for understanding and solving real-world problems.
Undergraduate and graduate students are welcome!
