Spencer Foundation

Transmodalising with Technology in Science (TTS) research is funded by the Spencer Foundation. The Spencer Foundation has been a leading funder of education research since 1971 and is the only national foundation focused exclusively on supporting education research.

TTS Mission

TTS research will help science and ESOL teachers to build instructional capacity by integrating infographics as well as multilingual students’ home language and cultural resources in science instruction. TTS team will provide teachers with ongoing support in designing and implementing TTS-informed science lessons with their multilingual learners to enhance students’ STEM learning experiences and outcomes.

TTS Vision

Envisioned outcomes from the project include (1) a new knowledge base of transmodalising pedagogy in science/STEM instruction for young adolescent multilingual learners, (2) the development of an instructional model that aligns to disciplinary practices by integrating digital infographics in a standards-aligned science curriculum, (3) research dissemination through presentation and publication about the TTS instructional model, and (4) expanded potential for future research at a larger scale on the effectiveness of transmodalising pedagogy for multilingual learners’ engagement and achievement in STEM learning.

Infographic Resources

STEM Literacy Infographics
