The Schools of Education and of Science and Mathematics, and The STEM Center of Excellence at The Citadel, in collaboration with the following high-need school districts - Berkeley County, Charleston County, Colleton County, Dorchester 4 and Hampton 1- are establishing the RECON (Recruit, Educate, Certify and Obtain New-Teachers) program to provide high-quality mathematics and science teachers for high-need school districts in the Lowcountry of South Carolina. This Phase I program is preparing 30 new teachers of mathematics and science teachers for high needs schools. Each of these teachers graduate with a major in mathematics, engineering or one of physical or natural sciences. Ten of these teachers come from the ranks of juniors majoring in chemistry or biology. Twenty come from STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) career changers who progress through an Accelerated MAT (Master of Arts in Teaching) program in Biology or in Mathematics.Intellectual Merit: Noyce scholarship recipients are benefitting from: scholarships to cover tuition cost and facilitate attendance by a diverse group of individuals; coursework aligned with the Common Core that provides the pedagogical skills and content knowledge necessary to effectively educate students in mathematics and science; individualized plans of study with ongoing advising and assistance; university/school system collaboration to ensure placement in appropriate teaching positions in high-need schools; support programs including individualized mentoring by school-system educators and university personnel; and professional development programs through the university's STEM Center of Excellence.Broader Impacts: This project is growing STEM-related capacity in South Carolina's Lowcountry as well as the state and nation. The scholarships are enabling potential educators from low socio-economic backgrounds and other diverse backgrounds to go to college to pursue their aspiration of making a difference through education. In addition, having partnerships across five school districts linked to The Citadel provides educators with the support they need to more effectively teach the STEM disciplines. The pedagogical content focus of the proposal enhances the teacher knowledge and ability of participants to assist K-12 students with diverse learning needs and backgrounds in pursuing Career Pathways (part of South Carolina's Education Economic Development Act) options. The project staff and evaluators are studying the marketing, recruitment, pedagogy and partnerships with K-12 schools and develop conference, presentations, publications, and other products to disseminate results of these studies within the scientific, educational and evaluation communities.

教育学院、科学与数学学院以及 Citadel 的 STEM 卓越中心与以下高需求学区（伯克利县、查尔斯顿县、科尔顿县、多切斯特 4 和汉普顿 1）合作，正在建立 RECON（招聘、教育、认证和获得新教师）计划，为低地国家的高需求学区提供高质量的数学和科学教师 南卡罗来纳州。第一阶段计划正在为高需求学校培养 30 名新的数学教师和科学教师。这些教师中的每一位都毕业于数学、工程或物理或自然科学专业。 其中十名教师来自化学或生物专业的大三学生。 20 名来自 STEM（科学、技术、工程和数学）职业转换者，他们通过生物学或数学加速 MAT（教学硕士）课程取得进步。 智力优势：诺伊斯奖学金获得者受益于： 奖学金用于支付学费并促进不同群体的入学；与共同核心相一致的课程作业，提供有效教育学生数学和科学所需的教学技能和内容知识；个性化的学习计划以及持续的建议和帮助；大学/学校系统合作，确保在高需求学校中担任适当的教学职位； 支持计划，包括学校系统教育工作者和大学人员的个性化指导；更广泛的影响：该项目正在提高南卡罗来纳州低地地区以及州和国家的 STEM 相关能力。这些奖学金使来自低社会经济背景和其他不同背景的潜在教育工作者能够进入大学，以实现通过教育做出改变的愿望。此外，与 Citadel 相关的五个学区的合作伙伴关系为教育工作者提供了更有效地教授 STEM 学科所需的支持。该提案的教学内容重点提高了教师的知识和参与者的能力，以帮助具有不同学习需求和背景的 K-12 学生追求职业道路（南卡罗来纳州教育经济发展法案的一部分）选择。项目工作人员和评估人员正在研究营销、招聘、教学法以及与 K-12 学校的合作伙伴关系，并开发会议、演示、出版物和其他产品，以在科学、教育和评估界传播这些研究结果。
