Math for America San Diego Noyce Fellowship Program

加州大学圣地亚哥分校和美国数学协会 (MfA) 圣地亚哥分会与加州州立大学圣马科斯分校和圣地亚哥州立大学以及四个学区（埃斯孔迪多联合高中区、格罗斯蒙特联合高中区、欧申赛德联合学区和圣地亚哥联合学区）合作，通过一项旨在显着增加该地区数学教师数量和技能水平的示范计划，帮助改变圣地亚哥社区的数学教学。这项工作的根本目标是通过为 24 名选定的教师在其证书学年以及在高需求学校教学的前四年提供广泛的专业支持，提高学生的数学学习水平。 MfA SD Noyce 奖学金计划包括向精心挑选的教学研究员提供财务、教育和专业支持的综合计划。该项目在整个奖学金期间提供强大的专业发展服务，包括年度暑期学院；由学校经验丰富的模范教师对新教师进行指导；旨在通过使教学职位与附近高科技行业竞争来吸引和奖励高素质人才的激励制度；以及衡量进展和计划成功的强有力的评估计划。 该项目受益于美国数学国家网络，该网络提供了通用的电子奖学金申请流程、评估机制开发方面的合作以及加强的筹款活动。 MfA SD 是一个精心设计的项目，由相互关联和综合的学术、专业和社会支持系统组成。他们的目的和知识基础设施有一个共同点，将教授、研究员、教师和管理人员团结在一个数学教育结构中，该结构以两个基本问题为指导：“学校应该教授什么数学？”以及“应该如何教授它？” 评估部分的目的不仅是为了影响对项目研究结果的理解，还在于阐明有助于保留教师、影响教师学习的计划要素，并揭示有关教师经验的数据，以便与全国教育研究人员共享。

The University of California, San Diego, and the San Diego chapter of Math for America (MfA) , in partnership with California State University San Marcos and San Diego State University and four school districts (Escondido Union High School District, Grossmont Union High School District, Oceanside Unified School District, and San Diego Unified School District) are helping to transform mathematics teaching in the San Diego community through a model program designed to significantly increase the numbers and skill levels of mathematics teachers in the region. The fundamental objective of the effort is to improve student learning of mathematics by providing 24 selected teachers with extensive professional support in their credential year and throughout their first four years of teaching in high-need schools. The MfA SD Noyce Fellowship Program encompasses a comprehensive plan of financial, educational and professional support provided to carefully selected Teaching Fellows. The project provides for strong professional development services, including annual summer institutes, throughout the term of the fellowships; mentoring of the new teachers by experienced, exemplary teachers in their schools; an incentive system designed to attract and reward high quality individuals by making teaching positions competitive with nearby, high-tech industries; and a robust evaluation plan to measure progress and programmatic success. The project is benefiting from the national network of Math for America which offers a common, electronic fellowship application process, collaboration in the development of evaluative mechanisms, and enhanced fund-raising. MfA SD is a cohesively designed program of inter-related and integrated academic, professional, and social support systems. There is a commonality in their purpose and an intellectual infrastructure that unites its professors, fellows, teachers, and administrators in a structure for mathematics education that is guided by two fundamental questions: "What is the mathematics that should be taught in school?" and "How should it be taught?" The evaluation component is designed to impact not only understanding of the project's findings, but also illuminate programmatic elements that contribute to teacher retention, influence teacher learning, and reveal data about teacher experiences so they can be shared with education researchers nation-wide.
