项目摘要

The Four Corners Noyce Scholars (FCNS) program is a Track 1 Noyce project. It will be a cross-state collaboration between Fort Lewis College (FLC) in Durango, CO and San Juan College (SJC) in Farmington, NM. It will deliver highly-qualified STEM teachers to a rural service region that overlaps three states. This project will provide one-year scholarships to 29 students who have already completed a STEM degree and will pursue Post-Baccalaureate teacher licensure through FLC or SJC. An additional 15 undergraduate students will be awarded multi-year scholarship support while pursuing licensure in conjunction with a degree in Math, Biology, Chemistry, Geoscience or Physics. This project will address the lack of qualified secondary STEM teachers in the Four Corners area. FCNS will increase the number of these teachers by recruiting and training students who are predisposed to living in rural communities. Then they will place them in high-need communities via student teacher assignments and long-term employment. The first goal of FCNS will be to increase the number and diversity of certified Math and Science teachers in the Four Corners region. Secondly, the project will provide mentorship and professional development to induction year teachers. Thirdly, the project will assess the effectiveness of the program's recruitment and support strategies. FCNS will develop a recruitment funnel that will expose promising STEM undergraduate students to instructional experiences. Selected students will receive a stipend to take part in summer internships through one of ten community partners in NM, CO, or AZ. Prior to receiving scholarship support, Noyce Scholars will attend a summer bridge program. This program will build camaraderie, create networking experiences, and address cultural fluency, literacy, and numeracy. These scholars will receive the training and induction year support needed to teach effectively in impoverished, isolated, rural communities with large Native American and Hispanic populations. A partnership between FCNS and the Navajo Nation Math Circle (NNMC) program will create exciting opportunities to recruit highly-qualified Navajo students into teaching and to provide FLC and SJC students exposure to the Navajo Nation and culture.Over five years, 44 teachers will complete certification and teach in one of thirteen high-need partner school districts. Starting in their freshman year, undergraduate students at both FLC and SJC will work with middle- and high-school students through activities on their college campus. These activities will include math festivals, chemistry demonstrations, science fair judging, and guiding visits to animal labs. Sophomore-level students will take their pre-teaching experiences into the schools. They will give sample lessons, tutor, and visit schools. The school visits will include both in-school and after-school programs through NNMC. Transfer pathways will be developed between SJC (a 2-year institution) and FLC (a 4-year institution). This will allow SJC students to receive Noyce support while completing STEM degrees at FLC. Dissemination of project results will include conference presentations by co-PIs, FCNS Scholars speaking in their home communities, and educational research results being submitted to appropriate journals and conferences. The project will seek to evaluate the effectiveness of recruitment activities, collaborative arrangements, and pathway alternatives, to generate evidence-based strategies for the preparation and retention of effective STEM teachers in the Four Corners region and similar settings around the U.S.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

四角诺伊斯学者（FCNS）计划是一个轨道1诺伊斯项目。这将是一个跨州之间的合作刘易斯堡学院（FLC）在杜兰戈，CO和圣胡安学院（SJC）在法明顿，NM。它将为三个州重叠的农村服务区提供高素质的STEM教师。该项目将为29名已经完成STEM学位的学生提供为期一年的奖学金，并将通过FLC或SJC获得学士后教师执照。另外15名本科生将获得多年奖学金支持，同时攻读数学，生物学，化学，地球科学或物理学学位。该项目将解决四角地区缺乏合格的中学STEM教师的问题。FCNS将通过招聘和培训倾向于生活在农村社区的学生来增加这些教师的人数。然后，他们将通过学生教师任务和长期就业将他们安置在高需求社区。FCNS的第一个目标是增加四角地区认证数学和科学教师的数量和多样性。第二，该项目将为入职年教师提供导师和专业发展。第三，该项目将评估该方案的招募和支助战略的有效性。 FCNS将开发一个招聘渠道，让有前途的STEM本科生获得教学经验。被选中的学生将获得奖学金，通过NM，CO或AZ的十个社区合作伙伴之一参加夏季实习。在获得奖学金支持之前，诺伊斯学者将参加一个夏桥项目。该计划将建立同志情谊，创造网络体验，并解决文化流畅性，识字和算术。这些学者将获得必要的培训和入职年的支持，以便在贫困，孤立的农村社区与大量的美洲原住民和西班牙裔人口有效地教学。 FCNS和纳瓦霍民族数学圈（NNMC）计划之间的合作伙伴关系将创造令人兴奋的机会，招募高素质的纳瓦霍学生进入教学，并为FLC和SJC学生提供纳瓦霍民族和文化的接触。在五年内，44名教师将完成认证，并在十三个高需求的合作学区之一任教。从大一开始，FLC和SJC的本科生将通过在大学校园里的活动与初中和高中学生一起工作。这些活动将包括数学节，化学演示，科学公平的判断，并指导参观动物实验室。大二学生将把他们的教学前的经验到学校。他们将提供样本课程，辅导和访问学校。学校访问将包括通过NNMC的校内和课后计划。将在SJC（2年制机构）和FLC（4年制机构）之间建立转学途径。这将使SJC学生在FLC完成STEM学位的同时获得Noyce的支持。项目成果的传播将包括由co-PI、FCNS学者在其家乡社区发表演讲的会议报告，以及提交给适当期刊和会议的教育研究成果。该项目将力求评价征聘活动、合作安排和备选途径的有效性，来收集证据该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为值得通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查进行评估来支持的搜索.
