This Track 1, Phase II project involves the Education Studies (EDS) and the Division of Physical Sciences (PS) of the University of California at San Diego (UCSD) in a partnership with three area community colleges; each of whom have articulation agreements with the university to transfer selected education courses so that incoming community college students are not at a disadvantage upon transfer and can enter the Noyce Program at an appropriate level. The partners in this project include: Grossmont, San Diego Mesa and Southwestern community colleges, the San Diego Unified School District, the San Diego Science and Engineering Festival and the following partners from the prior Phase 1 project: Grossmont Union High School District, Sweetwater Union High School District, Gompers Charter School, High Tech High Charter, the Preuss School Charter, and Guajome Park Academy Charter. As in the Phase I project the scholarships are concentrated within the last two years (the senior year and fifth year) of the students' academic work, with additional funds targeted to support internships for juniors. There are 11 internships set aside for community college transfer students and transitional summer fellowships for incoming community college transfer students that include fieldwork in K-12 STEM classrooms with UCSD faculty. The project is designed to produce 50 teachers and support 50 internships over the course of the five years of its existence. Many of the features this Phase II project introduces are designed to build community and make the transition to in-service teaching as seamless as possible. These include: institution of a Science Ambassador Program for pre-Scholar students which offers internships and opportunities to assist during the annual San Diego Festival of Science and Engineering, to tutor and mentor at other times and to assist with science fair projects; explicit targeting of community college STEM students for transfer to UCSD and applying to the Noyce program; formal inclusion of mentoring of pre-service teachers by Noyce Master Teachers; and involvement of the campus student group, Teachers for Change, which pursues outreach both on- and off-campus. Intellectual merit: The success of the Phase 1 project (original goals for scholars were met and 94% of the students supported are now teaching), the experience of the team, and the solid planning based on the outcomes from Phase 1 are all part of this project's intellectual merit. Broader Impact: The strong partnership with area community colleges and a pro-active plan for merging community college students into the program, having them work alongside their counterparts from UCSD during their internship is an indicator of a very proactive outreach for recruiting and retaining these students.

这个第一阶段，第二阶段的项目涉及加州大学圣地亚哥分校（UCSD）的教育研究（EDS）和物理科学部（PS），与三所地区社区学院合作；他们每个人都与大学有衔接协议，以转学选定的教育课程，以便即将进入社区大学的学生在转学时不会处于不利地位，并可以以适当的水平进入诺伊斯计划。该项目的合作伙伴包括：格罗斯蒙特、圣地亚哥梅萨和西南社区学院、圣地亚哥联合学区、圣地亚哥科学与工程节，以及来自先前一期项目的以下合作伙伴：格罗斯蒙特联合高中区、甜水联合高中区、Gompers特许学校、高科技高中特许学校、普瑞斯学校特许学校和瓜荷梅公园学院特许学校。与第一阶段项目一样，奖学金集中在学生学术工作的最后两年（大四和五年级），并有额外的资金用于支持大三学生的实习。为社区学院转校生预留了11个实习机会，并为即将入学的社区学院转校生提供过渡性暑期奖学金，其中包括与加州大学圣地亚哥分校教师一起在K-12 STEM教室进行实地考察。该项目旨在在其存在的五年内培养50名教师并支持50名实习。第二阶段项目引入的许多功能旨在建立社区，并尽可能无缝地过渡到在职教学。这些措施包括：为预科学生设立科学大使计划，在每年的圣地亚哥科学与工程节期间提供实习和协助的机会，在其他时间指导和指导，并协助科学博览会项目；明确针对社区学院STEM学生转学到加州大学圣地亚哥分校并申请Noyce项目；Noyce Master teachers正式纳入对职前教师的辅导；以及校园学生组织“教师变革”（Teachers for Change）的参与，该组织在校内和校外都开展外展活动。智力价值：第一阶段项目的成功（学者的最初目标已经实现，94%的学生支持现在正在教学），团队的经验，以及基于第一阶段成果的坚实规划都是该项目智力价值的一部分。更广泛的影响：与地区社区学院的紧密合作，以及将社区学院学生纳入项目的积极计划，让他们在实习期间与加州大学圣地亚哥分校的同行一起工作，这是一个非常积极的招聘和留住这些学生的指标。
