Education Research Grant: What Works in Producing African-American Science and Math Teachers at Historically Black Colleges and Universities?

霍华德大学通过HBCU-UP教育研究项目赠款，旨在发现与HBCUs成功培养非洲裔美国人科学和数学教师有关的机构、教学和个人因素。 通过混合方法的应用，提议者试图回答以下问题：什么因素导致在HBCUs生产非洲裔美国人的科学和数学教师的成功？ 该方法将包括教师培训计划的案例研究，对HBCU应届毕业生的当前非洲裔美国科学和数学教师的访谈研究，以及对HBCU科学和数学专业学生的纵向研究。数据分析将利用定性和定量技术，包括以问题为中心的分析，跨案例展示和综合，模式匹配以及描述性和多变量统计。 该项目的目的是增进对高等教育中央股教师供应和培训最佳做法的了解。

Howard University, through the HBCU-UP Educational Research Project grant, aims to discover the institutional, instructional and individual factors that are related to success in producing African American science and mathematics teachers at HBCUs. Through application of mixed methods, the proposers seek to answer the following question: what factors lead to success in producing African American science and mathematics teachers at HBCUs? The methodology will include case study of teacher preparation programs, interview study of current African American science and mathematics teachers who are recent graduates of HBCUs, and a longitudinal study of a cohort of students majoring in science and mathematics at an HBCU.Analysis of the data will utilize qualitative and quantitative techniques, including issue-focused analysis, cross-case displays and synthesis, pattern matching and descriptive and multivariate statistics. The project aims to advance knowledge on best practices for the supply and preparation of teachers at HBCUs.
