The Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics Teacher Education Collaborative (STEMTEC) is an NSF Collaborative for Excellence in Teacher Preparation (CETP) involving the University of Massachusetts-Amherst in partnership with Amherst, Hampshire, Mount Holyoke, and Smith Colleges, Greenfield, Holyoke, and Springfield Technical Community Colleges, and local school districts. STEMTEC accomplishments include the revision of mainstream courses for science and math majors who are potential teachers, faculty development to enable the adoption of student-active teaching strategies, alternative assessment, and collaborative group work, and early teaching experiences for preservice students. New science and mathematics teacher preparation transfer programs were developed for community college students and a post-baccalaureate summer/fall secondary certification option was created. A follow-on project is supporting a comprehensive summative evaluation of STEMTEC, emphasizing the outcomes of STEMTEC efforts in K-12 schools. The evaluation effort focuses on the extent to which STEMTEC has improved the preparation of K-12 math and science teachers, recruited students into math and science teaching, and supported new math and science teachers. The project provides an induction program for new teachers coordinated with district programs and state and national certification requirements. It includes a teacher collaborative group, STEM Education Institute programs including Science and Engineering Saturday Seminars, and a redesigned UMass Teacher Education Program that features an online seminar and a master's program with a discipline research experience. The project is contributing data to the CETP Core Evaluation effort.

科学、技术、工程和数学教师教育合作项目（STEMTEC）是美国国家科学基金会在教师准备方面的卓越合作项目（CETP），由马萨诸塞大学阿默斯特分校与阿默斯特、汉普郡、芒特霍利奥克和史密斯学院、格林菲尔德、霍利奥克和斯普林菲尔德技术社区学院以及当地学区合作开展。STEMTEC的成就包括为科学和数学专业的潜在教师修订主流课程，教师发展以采用学生主动教学策略，替代评估和协作小组工作，以及为职前学生提供早期教学经验。为社区大学学生开发了新的科学和数学教师准备转学计划，并创建了学士学位后夏季/秋季二级认证选项。一个后续项目正在支持对STEMTEC进行全面总结性评估，强调在K-12学校开展STEMTEC工作的成果。评估工作的重点是STEMTEC在多大程度上改善了K-12数学和科学教师的准备工作，招募学生参与数学和科学教学，并支持新的数学和科学教师。该项目为新教师提供了一个入门课程，与地区课程以及州和国家认证要求相协调。它包括一个教师合作小组，STEM教育研究所项目，包括科学和工程周六研讨会，以及重新设计的麻省大学教师教育项目，该项目以在线研讨会和具有学科研究经验的硕士项目为特色。该项目正在为CETP核心评估工作提供数据。
