Annual report dates come from the budget period on your award notice. That date is not public, so it is not shown here.

How we got this date

NSF lists this award's end date as 30 September 2028.
NSF rules say the final report is due no later than 120 days after that.
So the final report is due by 28 January 2029.

Abstract

This project aims to generate new evidence-based practices for using virtual reality (VR) to teach complex, invisible physics concepts (for example, wind flow and force). VR is a promising technology to improve conceptual understanding of invisible physics, as VR can provide visualizable, interactive learning opportunities. The practices generated from this Level 2 Engaged Student Learning project are intended to…
