The Jacksonville Teacher Residency (JTR) Noyce Program to Prepare Math and Science Secondary Educators for High-Need Urban Schools will recruit, prepare, and retain 15 talented STEM professionals to serve as science and mathematics teachers and leaders in local high-need urban schools. Over its five-year duration, this University of North Florida (UNF) JTR Noyce program will offer an array of programmatic components to support STEM degree holders with undergraduate or advanced degrees in mathematics, biology, chemistry, geology, physics, engineering, or computer science. The program will combine graduate study leading to a Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT) degree, rigorous apprenticeships in a high-need local school district, professional development related to urban education, and a supportive induction program. These supports will equip JTR Noyce Fellows to be highly effective middle and high school STEM educators in high-need public schools. Following a model akin to that of medical residencies, JTR will pair each resident Fellow with a Clinical Residency Mentor, a highly effective veteran STEM teacher in an urban school. The Clinical Residency Mentors' experiences and insights will help JTR Noyce Fellows identify and surmount both student barriers to learning and the teaching challenges that contribute to burnout and high turnover among urban educators. By creating a pipeline of highly qualified urban teacher leaders with both STEM and pedagogical expertise, this project will strengthen teaching and learning in high-need schools and develop a cadre of expert teacher leaders who have the knowledge, capacity, and commitment to foster STEM excellence.This Track 2 NSF Teaching Fellows project has the aim of preparing 15 STEM professionals to function as long-term, highly effective teachers and leaders in high-need public schools. The JTR Noyce Program is a partnership among UNF's College of Education and Human Services, which prepares educators; UNF's College of Arts and Sciences, including the departments of Mathematics and Statistics and Biology; the Jacksonville Public Education Fund (JPEF), a nonprofit that exists to support Jacksonville public schools and their work; and the local public school district serving Jacksonville, Florida. Collaboration among education, mathematics, and science faculty at UNF will assure that UNF's teacher preparation curriculum includes rigorous STEM content and effective pedagogy. UNF STEM faculty, in turn, will become more cognizant of the public secondary education milieu and will work to support and deepen STEM content and pedagogical knowledge for JTR Noyce Fellows. The project will concomitantly integrate rigorous STEM pedagogical strategies in UNF's teacher preparation courses in the context of the Florida State Standards in Math and Science. These interlinked components will lead to more in-depth, collaborative STEM teaching and learning in high-need schools.

杰克逊维尔教师驻留（JTR）诺伊斯计划，以准备数学和科学的中学教育工作者的高需求城市学校将招募，准备，并保留15个有才华的干专业人士担任科学和数学教师和领导人在当地高需求的城市学校。在为期五年的时间里，北佛罗里达大学（UNF）JTR Noyce计划将提供一系列程序组件，以支持具有数学，生物学，化学，地质学，物理学，工程学或计算机科学本科或高级学位的STEM学位持有者。该计划将结合联合收割机研究生学习，导致艺术在教学（MAT）学位硕士，严格的学徒在一个高需求的当地学区，与城市教育相关的专业发展，并支持诱导程序。这些支持将使JTR诺伊斯研究员成为高需求公立学校中高效的初中和高中STEM教育工作者。遵循类似于医学住院医师的模式，JTR将每个住院研究员与临床住院医师导师配对，临床住院医师导师是城市学校中一位非常有效的资深STEM教师。临床住院医师导师的经验和见解将帮助JTR Noyce Fellows识别并克服学生的学习障碍和导致城市教育工作者倦怠和高流动率的教学挑战。通过建立一个具有STEM和教学专业知识的高素质城市教师领导者的管道，该项目将加强高需求学校的教学和学习，并培养一批具有知识，能力和承诺的专家教师领导者，以促进STEM卓越。NSF第二轨道教学研究员项目的目标是培养15名STEM专业人员，高效率的教师和领导者在高需求的公立学校。JTR Noyce计划是联合国基金会教育和人类服务学院之间的伙伴关系，该学院为教育工作者做好准备;联合国基金会艺术和科学学院，包括数学、统计和生物学系;杰克逊维尔公共教育基金（JPEF），一个支持杰克逊维尔公立学校及其工作的非营利组织;以及为佛罗里达杰克逊维尔服务的当地公立学区。联合国基金会教育、数学和科学系之间的合作将确保联合国基金会的教师准备课程包括严格的STEM内容和有效的教学法。反过来，UNF STEM教师将更加了解公立中学教育环境，并将努力支持和深化JTR Noyce研究员的STEM内容和教学知识。该项目将在佛罗里达州数学和科学标准的背景下，将严格的STEM教学战略纳入联合国基金会的教师准备课程。这些相互关联的组成部分将导致更深入，协作STEM教学和学习在高需求的学校。
