This award is funded under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Public Law 111-5).Northern Kentucky University (NKU) selects talented undergraduate students interested in mathematics education and prepares them to be fully qualified, well-prepared teachers who will teach secondary mathematics in high-need schools. The University provides them on-going support during their early teaching years. The project is a collaboration among NKU, and three school districts: Covington Independent and Newport Independent Schools in Kentucky and Cincinnati Public Schools in Ohio. The project supports two-year scholarships to a minimum of 28 academically talented students in their junior and senior years.NKU's program includes the following elements: an aggressive recruiting plan which includes a partnership with Cincinnati State Technical and Community College; opportunities for incoming freshmen and rising sophomores to engage in summer experiences designed to stimulate their interest in becoming secondary mathematics teachers working in high-need schools; two-year scholarships for carefully selected, academically talented students in their junior and senior years; an outstanding teacher preparation program including valuable enhancements that foster a community of learners and expose participants to contemporary literature on, and effective practices in the teaching and learning of secondary mathematics; and mentoring and coaching support for program graduates.Program graduates have a direct, positive impact on the high school students they teach, and, by serving as role models for other teachers in the high-need schools, the graduates benefit the education of even more students in meaningful ways. The program is generating information about strategies that are effective in recruiting undergraduates, graduating them as teachers committed to working in high need schools and retaining them in the teaching profession. This information can be used nationally to enhance programs for pre-service and in-service teachers.

该奖项是根据2009年美国复苏和再投资法案（公法111 - 5）资助的。北方肯塔基州大学（NKU）选择有才华的本科生对数学教育感兴趣，并准备他们成为完全合格，准备充分的教师谁将在高需求的学校教中学数学。大学在他们的早期教学期间为他们提供持续的支持。该项目是NKU和三个学区之间的合作：肯塔基州的Covington独立学校和纽波特独立学校以及俄亥俄州的辛辛那提公立学校。 该项目支持为期两年的奖学金，以至少28名学术才华的学生在他们的大三和大四。NKU的计划包括以下要素：一个积极的招聘计划，其中包括与辛辛那提州立技术和社区学院的伙伴关系;为新生和即将入学的学生提供机会，参加旨在激发他们成为中学数学教师的兴趣的暑期活动，高需求学校;为精心挑选的，在他们的初中和高中学业有才华的学生提供为期两年的奖学金;优秀的教师准备计划，包括有价值的增强，培养学习者的社区，让参与者接触当代文学，以及中学数学教学和学习的有效实践;以及对项目毕业生的指导和辅导支持。项目毕业生对他们所教的高中生有直接的积极影响，通过为高需求学校的其他教师树立榜样，毕业生以有意义的方式使更多学生的教育受益。该计划正在生成有关策略的信息，这些策略有效地招募本科生，使他们毕业，成为致力于在高需求学校工作的教师，并将他们留在教师队伍中。这些信息可以在全国范围内用于加强职前和在职教师的计划。
