With funding from the NSF Robert Noyce Teacher Scholarship Program, a team at Roosevelt University (RU), partnering with Chicago Public Schools (CPS), the Field Museum of Natural History (FMNH), and Oakton Community College (OCC), will recruit and prepare science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) majors and STEM professionals for careers in teaching secondary mathematics and science. RU and OCC will work closely to ensure the communication of clear advising and financial aid information to OCC STEM students and to organize recruitment activities with the goal of providing compelling invitations to careers in teaching mathematics and science in high-need schools. Furthermore, the Field Museum for Natural History will be a key collaborator on the design and implementation of internship activities. At RU, there are two pathways to teacher licensure: a traditional four-year undergraduate track and a traditional graduate degree option for career changers and recent college graduates. Over its five-year duration, the project will recruit 5-6 new undergraduate Scholars and 5 new post-baccalaureate Scholars per year, for a total of 42 new teachers.As a theoretical underpinning, this project will intentionally examine and support the development of STEM teacher identities to enhance their confidence and competence in STEM content knowledge and pedagogical knowledge as well as their translation of such knowledge into teaching practices. Thus, in addition to recruiting Scholars and preparing them for K-12 STEM teaching careers, project goals include: (1) strengthen RU's course-based approach to the development of STEM identities and (2) strengthen pre-student teaching curricular experiences. The project will also be an example of a partnership between a four-year institution of higher education (IHE) and a two-year IHE as well as a partnership between a four-year IHE and a museum.

在美国国家科学基金会罗伯特·诺伊斯教师奖学金计划的资助下，罗斯福大学（RU）的一个团队将与芝加哥公立学校（CPS）、菲尔德自然历史博物馆（FMNH）和奥克顿社区学院（OCC）合作，招募和培养科学、技术、工程和数学（STEM）专业的学生和STEM专业人士，从事中学数学和科学的教学工作。RU和OCC将密切合作，确保向OCC STEM学生提供明确的建议和经济援助信息，并组织招聘活动，目标是为高需求学校的数学和科学教学提供有吸引力的职业邀请。此外，菲尔德自然历史博物馆将成为实习活动设计和实施的关键合作伙伴。在俄克拉荷马州立大学，获得教师资格证有两种途径：传统的四年制本科课程和传统的研究生学位课程，供转行者和刚毕业的大学毕业生选择。在五年的时间里，该项目每年将招收5-6名新的本科学者和5名新的学士后学者，总共招收42名新教师。作为理论基础，本项目将有意识地研究和支持STEM教师身份的发展，以增强他们对STEM内容知识和教学知识的信心和能力，以及他们将这些知识转化为教学实践的能力。因此，除了招募学者并使他们为K-12 STEM教学职业做好准备之外，项目目标还包括：(1)加强RU以课程为基础的方法来发展STEM身份；(2)加强学生前的教学课程经验。该项目还将成为四年制高等教育机构（IHE）与两年制高等教育机构之间以及四年制高等教育机构与博物馆之间合作的一个例子。
