Undergraduate Mathematics and Science Education Initiative (UMSEI)

加州大学圣地亚哥分校（UCSD）的教育研究（EDS）和物理科学部（PSD）正在合作开展一项倡议，以显著增加在公立学校从事教学工作的STEM本科专业学生的数量。加州大学圣地亚哥分校本科数学和科学教育计划（UMSEI）是加州大学全系统加州教学计划的一部分。在2006-07学年，学校开设了数学教育和科学教育两门本科辅修课程。这些辅修课程让低年级的STEM学生参与早期实地体验，让高年级的学生参与教育基础课程、特定学科的教学法和密集的学徒经历，为学生进入加州大学圣地亚哥分校研究生实习证书项目做准备。辅修课程的重点是支持具体内容教学法的发展，强大的教学实践加上深入的内容知识，在K-12数学和科学教师的视野内。围绕加州教学项目的工作也支持了教育研究和物理科学部在教师知识和准备方面的深入和持续的合作。诺伊斯奖学金用于招收65名数学、化学、物理、地球科学和工程专业学生进入本科辅修和研究生实习证书项目。UCSD EDS教师证书项目和UMSEI项目与当地社区学院建立了合作伙伴关系，包括圣地亚哥社区学院、格罗斯蒙特社区学院、帕洛马社区学院和米拉梅萨社区学院，以招收他们的转学生参加该项目，并与圣地亚哥联合学区、格罗斯蒙特联合高中学区、甜水联合高中学区、Gompers特许学校、高科技高中特许学校、普鲁斯学校章程和瓜荷美公园学院章程，以支持本科STEM专业学生的丰富经验。

Education Studies (EDS) and the Physical Sciences Division (PSD) at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) are collaborating on an initiative to significantly increase the number of undergraduate STEM majors who pursue a career in public school teaching. The UCSD Undergraduate Mathematics and Science Education Initiative (UMSEI) is part of the University of California Systemwide California Teach Program. EDS and PSD implemented two undergraduate minors in mathematics education and science education in 2006-07. These minors engage lower-division STEM students in early field experiences and upper-division students in education foundation coursework, discipline-specific pedagogy and intensive apprenticeship experiences to prepare students to enter the UCSD graduate intern credential program. The focus of the minor is to support the development of content specific pedagogy, powerful teaching practices coupled with deep content knowledge, within perspective K-12 mathematics and science teachers. The work around the California Teach project has also supported deep and consistent collaboration between Education Studies and the Physical Science Division about teacher knowledge and preparation. Noyce Scholarship funding is utilized to recruit 65 mathematics, chemistry, physics, geoscience and engineering majors into the undergraduate minors and graduate intern credential program. The UCSD EDS teacher credential program and the UMSEI program have partnerships with local community colleges, including San Diego Community College, Grossmont Community College, Palomar Community College, and Mira Mesa Community college, to recruit their transfer students to the program as well as partnerships with San Diego Unified School District, Grossmont Union High School District, Sweetwater Union High School District, Gompers Charter School, High Tech High Charter, the Preuss School Charter, and Guajome Park Academy Charter to support the extensive experiences of undergraduate STEM majors.
