UMB Noyce Scholars Program

马萨诸塞大学波士顿分校的诺伊斯学者计划在两个长期存在的城市教师培养计划--Teach Next明年和城市教师教育者公司--的基础上，正在招聘和培养有才华的科学、技术、工程和数学(STEM)本科生和专业人员，特别是来自代表性不足群体的本科生和专业人员，为城市教师生涯做准备。诺伊斯学者计划是由来自科学与数学学院、教育研究生院和波士顿公立学校的教师组成的合作伙伴关系。该伙伴关系旨在通过提供奖学金、教师准备课程、讲习班、城市学校实习和一对一专业指导来增加K-12认证的数学和科学教师的数量。共有39名诺伊斯学者得到支持，并准备成为城市学校的STEM教师。诺伊斯学者方案的方案凝聚力、资源获取和高质量成果由一个由伙伴学校和大学代表组成的咨询委员会监督。这一模式具有很高的保留率和就业率，可供其他高校在培养STEM专业人才进行教学、招聘少数STEM专业人才到教学领域以及与城市地区建立可行的合作伙伴关系方面提供借鉴。该模式及其结果正在传播，以便让其他在高需求城区专门从事教师培训的大学制定类似的计划，以表彰和培养有潜力和兴趣成为数学和科学教师的当地年轻人。

Building on two long-standing urban teacher preparation programs, Teach Next Year and the Urban Teacher Educator Corp., the University of Massachusetts Boston's Noyce Scholars Program is recruiting and preparing talented science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) undergraduates and professionals, particularly those from underrepresented groups, for urban teaching careers. The Noyce Scholars Program is a partnership made up of faculty from the College of Science and Mathematics, the Graduate College of Education and the Boston Public Schools. The partnership aims to increase the number of K-12 certified mathematics and science teachers by providing scholarships, teacher preparation courses, workshops, internships in urban schools and one-on-one professional coaching. A total of 39 Noyce Scholars are supported and preparing to become STEM teachers in urban schools. The programmatic cohesiveness, resource access and quality results of the Noyce Scholars Program are overseen by an Advisory Committee composed of representatives from the partnership schools and the university. This model, with its high retention and placement rate, is transferable and broadly informs other colleges and universities in preparing STEM professionals for teaching, in recruiting minority STEM professionals to the teaching field, and in forming viable partnerships with urban districts. The model and its results are being disseminated to allow other universities specializing in teacher preparation in high-needs urban districts to develop a similar program to recognize and develop local young people who have the potential and interest to become mathematics and science teachers.
