This award is funded under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009(Public Law 111-5).The University of California, Santa Barbara's (UCSB) Division of Mathematical, Life, and Physical Sciences, UCSB's Gevirtz Graduate School of Education (GGSE), three regional community colleges (Santa Barbara City College, Ventura Community College, and Alan Hancock College), and seven school districts in Santa Barbara and Ventura counties are collaborating to prepare exceptional secondary science and mathematics teachers for California's secondary schools. CalTeach at Santa Barbara (CTSB) is recruiting STEM majors into science and math teaching through a new Minor in Science and Mathematics Education. The project is increasing the overall number of science and mathematics credential candidates in UCSB's fifth year Teacher Education Program by 47% and building cohorts of students through shared activities so as to prepare and retain student-centered, reform-minded science and mathematics teachers. An estimated 75 scholarships ($10,000 each) are being awarded over a five year period to STEM majors who have successfully completed their undergraduate degree and been accepted to the UCSB Teacher Education Program. Selection procedures favor students who are the first in their families to attend college, bilingual, and/or graduates of the undergraduate Minor in Science and Mathematics Education. Three scholarships each year are designated for community college transfer students. Scholarship recipients complete their student teaching in schools serving substantial numbers of students who are economically disadvantaged and/or English learners. They fulfill their teaching commitments in designated, high need partnership school districts while completing an enhanced beginning teacher induction program. Evaluation research is determining how best to meet program objectives of recruitment, teacher preparation, and establishment of cohorts of exceptional science and mathematics teachers.

该奖项根据 2009 年《美国复苏和再投资法案》（公法 111-5）提供资助。 加州大学圣巴巴拉分校 (UCSB) 数学、生命和物理科学部、UCSB 格维尔茨教育研究生院 (GGSE)、三所地区社区学院（圣巴巴拉城市学院、文图拉社区学院和艾伦汉考克学院）以及圣巴巴拉和圣巴巴拉的七个学区 文图拉县正在合作为加州中学培养优秀的中学科学和数学教师。圣巴巴拉加州教育学院 (CTSB) 正在通过新的科学和数学教育辅修课程招募 STEM 专业学生参与科学和数学教学。 该项目将 UCSB 第五年教师教育计划的科学和数学证书候选人总数增加 47%，并通过共享活动培养学生群体，以培养和留住以学生为中心、具有改革思维的科学和数学教师。预计将在五年内向已成功完成本科学位并被 UCSB 教师教育计划录取的 STEM 专业学生颁发 75 份奖学金（每份 10,000 美元）。选拔程序有利于家庭中第一个上大学的双语学生和/或科学和数学教育辅修本科毕业生。每年为社区大学转学生指定三项奖学金。奖学金获得者在为大量经济困难学生和/或英语学习者服务的学校完成学生教学。他们在指定的高需求合作学区履行教学承诺，同时完成强化的初级教师入职培训计划。 评估研究正在确定如何最好地实现招聘、教师准备和建立杰出科学和数学教师队伍的计划目标。
