Clark Atlanta University's (CAU's) Robert Noyce Capacity Building project is supporting CAU's effort to build a K-12 science educator preparation program based on partnerships between CAU STEM departments, the School of Education, and the Atlanta and Clayton County Public Schools. New curriculum is being developed for undergraduate STEM majors and STEM graduates wishing to earn certification for high school teaching with a particular emphasis on developing highly qualified, culturally competent science educators for high need school districts. The curriculum under development is responsive to state, district, and national professional associations science education standards. This teacher certification program is based on a strong STEM subject matter curriculum, leading to a B.S. degree in a STEM field, such that the developing educators are fully prepared to teach the subject matter without trepidation and to keep up with advances in their chosen science field. The new curriculum provides opportunities to test hypotheses about science achievement in urban 7-12 classrooms and translate these findings into a district specific set of "best practices" for teaching and learning science. Broader impacts of this project include enhanced STEM teaching at the secondary level where STEM majors and non-majors alike benefit from STEM classes taught by faculty with knowledge, skills, and cultural competence.

克拉克亚特兰大大学（CAU）的罗伯特诺伊斯能力建设项目正在支持CAU的努力，建立一个K-12科学教育家准备计划的基础上CAU干部门，教育学院，亚特兰大和克莱顿县公立学校之间的伙伴关系。 正在为本科STEM专业和希望获得高中教学认证的STEM毕业生开发新课程，特别强调为高需求学区培养高素质，文化能力强的科学教育工作者。 正在开发的课程是响应国家，地区和国家专业协会的科学教育标准。 这个教师认证计划是基于一个强大的STEM主题课程，导致学士学位。在STEM领域的学位，使发展中的教育工作者充分准备教的主题没有恐惧，并跟上他们所选择的科学领域的进步。 新的课程提供了机会，以测试有关城市7-12教室的科学成就的假设，并将这些发现转化为一个地区的具体的一套“最佳实践”的教学和学习科学。 该项目的更广泛的影响包括在中学一级加强STEM教学，STEM专业和非专业都受益于由具有知识，技能和文化能力的教师教授的STEM课程。
