A Proposal to Provide Technical Assistance to Increase the Competitiveness of Minority-serving Institutions (MSIs) in the Robert Noyce Teacher Scholarship Program

少数族裔优质教育(QEM)网络将举办一次提案制定研讨会，旨在提高少数族裔服务机构(MSI)罗伯特·诺伊斯教师奖学金计划相关机会的发展和意识。研讨会将包括来自20个MSI的两人教员团队，他们有兴趣开发一份竞争性的Noyce提案。与会者还将参加一系列研讨会后的个别会议，这些会议将提供额外的提案指导。QEM研讨会和研讨会后的互动将向与会者提供关于他们所需项目摘要的反馈，以帮助他们将他们的想法发展为具有竞争力的Noyce提案。MSI是唯一有资格为高需求学校招聘、留住和发展STEM教师的机构。因此，该项目的研讨会将有助于发展更强大的MSI，特别是教师培训计划，以满足国家对更具生产力的科学和技术劳动力的需求。

The Quality Education for Minorities (QEM) Network will conduct a proposal development workshop aimed at increasing the development and awareness of grantsmanship opportunities related to the Robert Noyce Teacher Scholarship Program at Minority Serving Institutions (MSIs). The workshop will include two-person faculty teams from 20 MSIs interested in developing a competitive Noyce proposal. Participants will also engage in a series of post-workshop individualized sessions that will provide additional proposal guidance. The QEM workshop and post-workshop interactions will provide participants feedback on their required project summaries to assist them in developing their ideas into competitive Noyce proposals. MSIs are uniquely qualified to address the issue of recruiting, retaining, and developing STEM teachers for high-need schools. As such, the project's workshops will help develop stronger MSIs, in general, and teacher preparation programs, specifically, to meet the nation's needs for a more productive science and technology workforce.
