Robert Noyce Scholarships at Trinity University

圣安东尼奥大学的罗伯特·诺伊斯项目旨在通过向M.A.T年度的大四学生和攻读学士学位的学生颁发罗伯特·诺伊斯奖学金，来提高圣安东尼奥地区数学和科学教学的数量和质量。在麻省理工学院学年，学生们几乎全职在当地学校的教室里实习8个月，以一种学徒式的教师培训模式，类似于医学教学医院的实习经历。广泛的征聘活动以所有合格候选人为目标，特别注意任职人数不足的群体。遴选标准包括：总体和主要领域的GPA；推荐人和面试证明的智力和教学潜力；证明的经济需求；以及对候选人成为圣安东尼奥地区学校学生有效榜样的能力的估计。申请为大四学生的学生可能是圣三一大学STEM专业的学生，也可能是来自其他院校的STEM专业学生，他们已经申请并获得了M.A.T.项目的录取资格，成为毕业后的候选人。所有诺伊斯学院的获奖者都被分配了STEM教员和教育教员导师。在教学的头三年里，他们的STEM和教育系导师将继续提供支持。诺伊斯学者还参加了教育部的其他在职项目。此外，为了帮助维持新手教师，新教师和经验丰富的教师通过利邦的“关键朋友”小组联系在一起，使教师和管理人员能够维持一个专业的社区。教育部将通过其在线数据库跟踪每一位诺伊斯获奖者的职业生涯，并监督和强制执行计划条件的遵守情况。

The Robert Noyce program at Trinity aims to increase both the quantity and quality of math and science teaching in the San Antonio area by awarding Robert Noyce scholarships to seniors and post-baccalaureate candidates in their M.A.T. year. During the M.A.T. year students intern nearly full-time for eight months in classrooms in local schools in an apprenticeship model of teacher preparation analogous to a medical teaching hospital internship experience. Extensive recruiting activities are targeting all qualified candidates with special attention to under-represented groups. Criteria for selection include: GPA overall and within the major field; intellectual and pedagogical potential as evidenced by references and interview; demonstrated financial need; and estimate of the candidate's ability to be an effective role model for students in San Antonio area schools. Students who apply as seniors may be STEM majors either at Trinity, or they may be STEM majors from other institutions who have applied and gained admission to the M.A.T. program as post-baccalaureate candidates. All Noyce recipients are assigned both STEM faculty and Education faculty mentors. During the first three years of teaching, their STEM and Education faculty mentors will continue to provide support. Noyce scholars also participate in other department of Education in-service programs. In addition, to help sustain novice teachers, new and experienced teachers are linked through Trinity's "Critical Friends" groups that enable teachers and administrators to maintain a professional community. The department of Education will track each Noyce recipient's career through its on-line database and monitor and enforce compliance with program conditions.
