The University of Colorado at Boulder (CU Boulder) is partnering with Adams 12 Five Star Schools, Boulder Valley School District, Brighton 27J School District, and St. Vrain Valley School District to expand the current Noyce Fellowship Program and address growing needs by recruiting six new students per year over four years. The project seeks to increase the number of students traditionally underrepresented in mathematics and science at CU Boulder and the number of these students applying to the Noyce Fellowship program by engaging Noyce Fellows in local informal science education efforts through the Science Discovery program and Partners for Informal Science Education in the Community at CU Boulder. The project is conducting longitudinal studies of the effectiveness of the Noyce "treatment" on former Noyce Fellows' teaching and studies of upcoming transformations of the certification program available to the Phase II cohort. The Noyce Fellowship program is a part of a larger program at CU Boulder that couples large-enrollment undergraduate course transformation with the recruitment and preparation of future teachers through an Undergraduate Learning Assistant Program, which impacts over 7000 students per year and has engaged over 47 STEM faculty members in the process. This three-tiered research project investigates content knowledge, pedagogical knowledge, and practice of Noyce Fellows, Learning Assistants (LAs), former Noyce Fellows who are currently teaching in K-12 schools, and a control group of students who completed the same certification program but did not have the Noyce/LA treatment. When students become Noyce Fellows at CU Boulder, they become a part of a community that they will be a part of for many years to come. The Noyce Fellows participate in discipline-based educational research, present their research at national and local conferences, and mentor new Noyce Fellows. Noyce Fellows work closely with STEM and STEM Education faculty and learn how to investigate the impact of classroom innovations through research. The project is documenting and disseminating the program design, the supporting research results, and assessment instruments designed in the process to assist other universities interested in working toward large-scale institutional change in STEM education.

科罗拉多大学博尔德分校（CU Boulder）正在与亚当斯12所五星级学校、博尔德山谷学区、布莱顿27J学区和圣Vrain山谷学区合作，扩大目前的诺伊斯奖学金计划，并通过在四年内每年招收六名新生来满足不断增长的需求。该项目旨在增加科罗拉多大学博尔德分校数学和科学专业传统代表性不足的学生人数，并通过科学发现项目和社区非正式科学教育合作伙伴，让诺伊斯研究员参与当地非正式科学教育工作，从而增加这些学生申请诺伊斯奖学金项目的人数。该项目正在对Noyce“治疗”对前Noyce研究员教学的有效性进行纵向研究，并对即将到来的第二阶段队列可用的认证计划的转变进行研究。诺伊斯奖学金项目是科罗拉多大学博尔德分校一个更大的项目的一部分，该项目通过本科生学习助理项目将大规模招生的本科课程转型与未来教师的招聘和准备结合起来，该项目每年影响7000多名学生，并在此过程中吸引了47名STEM教师。这个三层研究项目调查了Noyce研究员、学习助理（LAs）、目前在K-12学校教学的前Noyce研究员以及完成相同认证项目但未接受Noyce/LA治疗的对照组学生的内容知识、教学知识和实践。当学生成为科罗拉多大学博尔德分校的诺伊斯研究员时，他们就成为了一个社区的一部分，他们将在未来的许多年里成为这个社区的一部分。诺伊斯研究员参与以学科为基础的教育研究，在国家和地方会议上展示他们的研究，并指导新的诺伊斯研究员。诺伊斯研究员与STEM和STEM教育教师密切合作，学习如何通过研究调查课堂创新的影响。该项目正在记录和传播项目设计、支持研究成果和在此过程中设计的评估工具，以帮助其他有兴趣在STEM教育中进行大规模制度变革的大学。
