This award is funded under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Public Law 111-5).The Fresno State Teaching Fellows (FRESTEF) program at California State University-Fresno is increasing the pool of highly qualified science and mathematics teachers in the Central Valley of California through a comprehensive design requiring Fellows to complete either a Master of Arts or Master of Science degree in the sciences or mathematics, in conjunction with completion of requirements for a secondary school teaching credential, thus creating excellent bridges between pedagogy and advanced STEM content. The program features extensive involvement of STEM faculty through instruction in graduate level programs, professional development workshops, and mentoring of FRESTEF Fellows. The program builds upon the strong foundation of two successful Noyce programs by offering special programmatic support for the Fellows, including seminars on teaching in high needs schools, summer research opportunities with established programs at the U.S. Department of Energy Labs, and exemplary summer institutes which provide future and current science and mathematics teachers with high quality, research-based curricula. The project is providing fellowships and support to 18 highly trained science and mathematics teachers who are expected to become key role models and leaders in their school districts. Through extensive involvement of FRESTEF Fellows with the National Science Digital Library (NSDL)/Noyce Commons and emerging on-line community, the products of the Fellows program (including contributions in the form of on-line publications, lessons, and other teaching and learning resources) are being widely disseminated throughout the Noyce community in California. Partners include the Central Valley Science Project, San Joaquin Valley Mathematics Project, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, Math for America, and the Science Teacher and Researcher Program. School district partners include Fresno, Clovis, Madera County, and Fowler School Districts.

该奖项根据 2009 年《美国复苏和再投资法案》（公法 111-5）提供资金。加州州立大学弗雷斯诺分校的弗雷斯诺州立教学研究员 (FRESTEF) 计划通过一项全面的设计，要求研究员完成科学或数学方面的文学硕士或理学硕士学位，同时完成 中学教学证书的要求，从而在教育学和先进的 STEM 内容之间建立了良好的桥梁。该项目的特点是 STEM 教师通过研究生水平项目的指导、专业发展研讨会和 FRESTEF 研究员的指导来广泛参与。该项目建立在两个成功的诺伊斯项目的坚实基础上，为研究员提供特殊的项目支持，包括高需求学校教学研讨会、美国能源部实验室既定项目的暑期研究机会，以及为未来和现任科学和数学教师提供高质量、以研究为基础的课程的模范暑期学院。 该项目为 18 名训练有素的科学和数学教师提供奖学金和支持，这些教师有望成为所在学区的关键榜样和领导者。通过 FRESTEF 研究员与国家科学数字图书馆 (NSDL)/诺伊斯共享资源和新兴在线社区的广泛参与，研究员计划的产品（包括在线出版物、课程和其他教学资源形式的贡献）正在加利福尼亚州的诺伊斯社区广泛传播。 合作伙伴包括中央谷科学项目、圣华金谷数学项目、劳伦斯利弗莫尔国家实验室、劳伦斯伯克利国家实验室、美国数学以及科学教师和研究员计划。 学区合作伙伴包括弗雷斯诺学区、克洛维斯学区、马德拉县学区和福勒学区。
