Recruiting and retaining mathematics and science educators responsive to the needs of underrepresented communities is critical for the STEM pipeline. This project funded by the Robert Noyce Teacher Scholarship program will prepare 35 mathematics and science majors with experiences, skills, and knowledge to become highly effective inquiry-based teachers committed to working in high-need urban schools. In addition to being one of the largest teacher preparation providers in the state, Metropolitan State University of Denver (MSU Denver) serves the highest percentage of minority students in Colorado and demonstrates a strong commitment to inclusive equity. Many students at MSU Denver are first generation college students who often take multiple pathways into and through their university studies, including from partner and a neighbor institution, the Community College of Denver. Grant funding will be used as a tool for recruitment and retention of qualified junior and senior STEM majors to become secondary teachers through scholarships, guidance, and a community of support. This Noyce project, the Inclusive STEM Teaching Preparation at an Urban Commuter University (U-STEM) effort, which builds upon work done through a Noyce Capacity Building project, will strengthen the university's science and mathematics licensure programs, and create opportunities for integrated STEM teaching and learning aligned with the needs of its K-12 and community partners. Particular emphasis will be placed on recruiting underrepresented students into STEM majors and the teaching pipeline. MSU Denver currently partners with more than 20 metropolitan area school districts; this grant will be used to expand and enhance these relationships to positively impact schools and districts throughout the extended Denver metro area. The project aims to recruit and fund at least 35 U-STEM Scholars through graduation and hiring, improve collaborations with high-need school districts in meeting STEM teacher needs, and establish an innovative induction program for U-STEM Teachers. Goals and objectives for the proposed U-STEM program include increasing the number of students recruited into and graduating from STEM licensure programs; increasing the diversity of students recruited into and graduating from STEM licensure programs; preparing Noyce Teachers to work in high-need districts; assisting districts with professional development for STEM equity; establishing an innovative induction program for Noyce Teachers serving in high-need districts; improving mentoring of in-service teachers; and creating opportunities for Noyce Teachers to further their learning through professional learning communities. U-STEM will produce at least 35 new secondary teachers with baccalaureate STEM degrees in biology, chemistry, environmental science, mathematics, or physics. Research questions align with program goals and objectives, with a focus on illuminating promising practices for supporting STEM undergraduates at an urban commuter university as they take a variety of pathways to become teachers in high-need schools. A mixed method research design will yield findings of interest for educational institutions in urban contexts, researchers aiming to diversify the teaching population, and STEM programs striving to better serve underrepresented students.

招聘和留住数学和科学教育工作者，以满足代表性不足的社区的需求，对于STEM管道至关重要。该项目由罗伯特·诺伊斯教师奖学金计划资助，将培养35名具有经验、技能和知识的数学和科学专业学生，成为致力于在高需求城市学校工作的高效探究式教师。除了是该州最大的教师培训提供者之一，丹佛大都会州立大学（MSU丹佛）为科罗拉多少数民族学生提供最高比例的服务，并表现出对包容性公平的坚定承诺。密歇根州立大学丹佛分校的许多学生都是第一代大学生，他们经常通过多种途径进入大学学习，包括合作伙伴和邻居机构丹佛社区学院。赠款资金将被用作招聘和保留合格的初级和高级STEM专业的工具，通过奖学金，指导和支持社区成为中学教师。 这个Noyce项目，在城市通勤大学（U-STEM）的包容性STEM教学准备工作，建立在通过Noyce能力建设项目所做的工作的基础上，将加强大学的科学和数学许可计划，并创造机会综合STEM教学和学习与K-12和社区合作伙伴的需求相一致。将特别强调招收代表性不足的学生进入STEM专业和教学管道。密歇根州立大学丹佛分校目前与20多个大都会地区学区合作;这笔赠款将用于扩大和加强这些关系，以积极影响整个丹佛大都会地区的学校和地区。该项目旨在通过毕业和招聘招募和资助至少35名U-STEM学者，改善与高需求学区的合作，以满足STEM教师的需求，并为U-STEM教师建立创新的入门课程。拟议的U-STEM计划的目标和目的包括增加STEM许可计划招募和毕业的学生人数;增加STEM许可计划招募和毕业的学生的多样性;准备诺伊斯教师在高需求地区工作;协助地区进行STEM公平的专业发展;为在高需求地区服务的诺伊斯教师建立创新的入门课程;改善对在职教师的指导;为诺伊斯教师创造机会，通过专业学习社区进一步学习。U-STEM将培养至少35名拥有生物、化学、环境科学、数学或物理学士学位的新中学教师。研究问题与计划目标和目的相一致，重点是阐明有前途的做法，以支持城市通勤大学的STEM本科生，因为他们采取各种途径成为高需求学校的教师。混合方法的研究设计将为城市环境中的教育机构、旨在使教学人口多样化的研究人员以及努力更好地为代表性不足的学生服务的STEM项目带来感兴趣的结果。
