Through this Capacity Building Grant the SUNY College at Oswego is developing the means necessary to increase the number of secondary education teachers in the STEM disciplines in high-need schools in their area. The school districts involved include: the Central Square Central , the Altmar-Parish, the Mexico Central, the Fulton City, the Oswego City, and the Hannibal school districts. The project is developing the following: 1) a teacher preparation program designed so that students majoring in STEM disciplines can receive a master's degree in teaching and complete their science major within a five year period; 2) programs that expose STEM majors to teaching possibilities early in their academic careers through internships and student teaching opportunities; 3) online versions of some of these classes to expand the reach of the program; 4) articulations with regional community colleges that allow transfer students to complete their degree and certification within the same timeframe as students who start as freshmen on the four year campus; 5) partnerships with local, regional and state middle schools and high schools to place and support Noyce teachers as they begin their professional careers; 6) a campus infrastructure to support the grant distribution process, including mechanisms for ensuring that scholarship recipients are meeting the expectations of the program; and 7) a robust assessment process that ensures the goals of the Robert Noyce Scholarship Program are being met and that provides formative feedback for program improvement. The project anticipates recruitment of three types of students: upper division students at SUNY Oswego presently majoring in STEM disciplines (including transfer students from community colleges and technical colleges) to complete the undergraduate degree in their STEM discipline and a master's degree in teaching (MST); those who have graduated with a degree in a STEM discipline who will be recruited into a fast-completion MST program that allows for completion of the master's degree within a one year plus one summer timetable; and those students early in their careers as STEM majors who will have experiences that allow them to determine whether a career as a teacher is an appropriate choice for them. Intellectual Merit: The program draws on an established body of literature as to what makes for an effective STEM teacher. It uses the findings from a variety of successful programs to develop a unique model that includes a quality educational experience for future teachers, field experiences and orientations that help students to develop innovative pedagogical techniques.Broader Impact: This model has the potential to be easily used by other institutions with strong science programs and histories of quality teacher education. The interaction between the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences and the School of Education combines a dedication to discipline with strong and active pedagogy.

通过这项能力建设赠款，纽约州立大学奥斯韦戈学院正在开发必要的手段，以增加其地区高需求学校STEM学科的中学教育教师人数。 涉及的学区包括：中央广场中心、阿尔特马尔教区、墨西哥中心、富尔顿市、奥斯韦戈市和汉尼拔学区。 该项目正在制定以下内容： 1)一个教师准备计划，旨在使STEM学科的学生可以获得教学硕士学位，并在五年内完成他们的科学专业; 2）通过实习和学生教学机会使STEM专业学生在学术生涯早期接触教学可能性的计划; 3）其中一些课程的在线版本，以扩大该计划的覆盖范围; 4）与区域社区学院的衔接，允许转学学生在与四年制校园新生相同的时间内完成学位和认证; 5）与当地，区域和州立中学和高中合作，在他们开始职业生涯时安置和支持诺伊斯教师; 6）校园基础设施，以支持赠款分配过程，包括确保奖学金获得者满足计划的期望的机制;和7）一个强大的评估过程，确保罗伯特·诺伊斯奖学金计划的目标得到满足，并提供形成性反馈计划改进。该项目预计招收三类学生：纽约州立大学奥斯韦戈目前主修STEM学科的高年级学生（包括从社区学院和技术学院转学的学生）完成其STEM学科的本科学位和教学硕士学位（MST）;那些毕业于STEM学科的人将被招募到一个快速的-完成MST计划，允许在一年加一个夏季时间表内完成硕士学位;以及那些在职业生涯早期作为STEM专业的学生，他们将有经验，使他们能够确定作为教师的职业是否适合选择他们。智力优点：该计划借鉴了一个既定的文学机构，以什么使一个有效的STEM教师。它利用各种成功项目的研究结果，开发出一种独特的模式，其中包括为未来教师提供优质的教育体验，实地经验和指导，帮助学生发展创新的教学技术。更广泛的影响：这种模式有可能很容易被其他拥有强大科学项目和优质教师教育历史的机构使用。文理学院和教育学院之间的互动结合了对学科的奉献精神和强大而积极的教育学。
