Developing more highly qualified science teachers to serve in high needs schools is a national challenge. The University of Virginia in partnership with Hampton, Alexandria, and Culpeper School Districts will implement Phase 1 of the Robert Noyce Scholarship and Stipend Program which will recruit, educate and retain academically talented science and engineering undergraduates and STEM professionals who will become certified high school science teachers in the partner school districts and other high-need schools in Virginia. The educational experience for Noyce Scholarship and Stipend recipients will include preparing them to become effective science teachers, and Teacher-Leaders in engineering design integration in K-12 science instruction. Robert Noyce Scholarship and Stipend recipients will be supported through a number of proven strategies, including mentoring, targeted advising, and induction support. Data will be collected to provide insights into the integration of engineering design in pre-service science teacher education courses, which may lead to programmatic changes in teacher education program. The project will be rigorously evaluated to determine the effectiveness of the recruitment and retention strategies and to determine the impact of the program on Robert Noyce Scholarship and Stipend recipients' content knowledge, instructional practices, and skills for integrating engineering design in science instruction. Overall, this project will contribute to the number of certified secondary science teachers in high-need schools in Virginia, and stands to increase student achievement in science.

培养更多高素质的科学教师在高需求的学校服务是一个国家的挑战。弗吉尼亚大学与汉普顿、亚历山大和库尔佩珀学区合作，将实施罗伯特·诺伊斯奖学金和津贴计划的第一阶段，该计划将招募、教育和留住学术上有才华的理工科本科生和STEM专业人员，他们将成为合作学区和弗吉尼亚州其他高需求学校的合格高中科学教师。诺伊斯奖学金和助学金获得者的教育经验将包括使他们成为有效的科学教师，以及K-12科学教学中工程设计整合的教师领导者。罗伯特·诺伊斯奖学金和助学金获得者将通过一些行之有效的策略，包括指导，有针对性的建议和入门支持的支持。将收集数据，以提供深入了解工程设计在职前科学教师教育课程，这可能会导致教师教育计划的程序性变化的整合。该项目将进行严格的评估，以确定招聘和保留策略的有效性，并确定该计划对罗伯特诺伊斯奖学金和助学金接受者的内容知识，教学实践和技能的影响，将工程设计融入科学教学。总的来说，该项目将有助于增加弗吉尼亚州高需求学校的合格中学科学教师人数，并提高学生的科学成绩。
