This is an 18-month planning project to continue the work that has begun on the ND-CoMSTeP project. The goals of the planning project are to improve the original ND-CoMSTep project through increased involvement of scientists and mathematicians in preservice teacher preparation. A two-day summer conference will be held for North Dakota scientists and mathematicians. Those wishing to take a more active roll in teacher preparation will be given time at the conference to develop plans for their own institution. Two other trial initiatives will be a part of this planning grant. The first of these is the establishment of three teams, each consisting of a preservice mathematics teacher and a university mathematician. They will work together to teach a university calculus class at a local high school. The second initiative involves undergraduate science majors working for approximately ten hours per week as teachers' assistants to master teachers at a local junior, or senior, high school. Each science major will meet with his/her academic science advisor, and science educator, once every two weeks. These meetings will be an opportunity to talk about teaching, its rewards, its challenges, and the possibility of preparing for dual careers in science and science teaching.

这是一个为期18个月的规划项目，旨在继续开展ND-CoMSTeP项目已经开始的工作。 该规划项目的目标是通过增加科学家和数学家参与副教师培训来改进原有的ND-CoMSTep项目。 将为北达科他州科学家和数学家举行为期两天的夏季会议。 那些希望在教师准备方面采取更积极行动的人将在会议上有时间为自己的机构制定计划。另外两项试验倡议将是这项规划赠款的一部分。其中第一个是建立三个小组，每个小组由一名业余数学教师和一名大学数学家组成。 他们将一起在当地一所高中教授大学微积分课程。第二项举措涉及科学专业的本科生，每周工作约10小时，作为当地初中或高中教师的教师助理。每个科学专业将会见他/她的学术科学顾问，科学教育家，每两周一次。 这些会议将是一个机会来谈论教学，其奖励，其挑战，以及在科学和科学教学双职业生涯的可能性做准备。
