Truman Noyce Scholars Program for Secondary Mathematics and Physics Teaching

这个第一阶段项目正在为密苏里州的农村和其他高需求学校准备20名双重认证的数学/物理教师。 他们正在与柯克斯维尔R-III学区高中和斯凯勒初中/高中合作，并将他们的合作伙伴关系扩大到该州的其他学校。 诺伊斯奖学金获得者将获得物理学和数学的文学学士学位，以及数学和物理学的中学教师证书，以及教育学硕士学位。智力优势：该提案基于之前的相关课程。学士学位在所有领域都很强，需要31小时的物理，35小时的数学和11小时的教育课程，以及整个课程的广泛实地经验。 两个学期的实践教学由一个学科和一名教育教师进行监督。更广泛的影响：该项目的受益者是许多学生，他们将接受强大的数学和物理教育，以及能够在课堂上将物理和数学联系起来的鼓舞人心的教师的学区。 此外，通过传播从项目活动中学到的知识，新的方法可以作为其他机构的模式

This Phase I project is preparing twenty dually certified math/physics teachers for rural and other high-need schools in Missouri. They are working with the Kirksville R-III School District Senior High School and Schuyler Junior/Senior High Schools and expanding their partnerships to other schools within the state. Noyce Scholars are earning a Bachelor of Arts degree in both physics and mathematics, and secondary teaching certificates in both mathematics and physics as well as a Master of Arts in Education degree.Intellectual Merit: The proposal is based on prior related programs. The Bachelor's degree is strong in all fields, requiring thirty-one hours of physics, thirty-five hours of mathematics and eleven hours of education courses as well as extensive field experiences throughout the curriculum. Supervision during the two semester practice teaching is by both a subject matter and an education faculty member.Broader Impacts: The beneficiaries of the project are the many school children who will receive a strong education in mathematics and physics and the school districts that will be able to seed their schools with inspiring teachers who can connect physics and mathematics in the classroom. In addition, through the dissemination of what is learned through project activities, the new approaches may serve as models for other institutions
