项目摘要

Leadership through Equity and Advocacy Development in STEM (LEAD-STEM) is a Noyce Track 3 Master Teaching Fellowships (MTF) project at the University of Houston. LEAD-STEM will focus on the acute shortage of effective secondary science and mathematics teacher leaders in America's urban high schools. It will also capitalize on reports that the Greater Houston area's current demographics reflect the future demographics of the United States. The project will develop, mentor, and retain STEM teacher leaders in high-need school districts in the Greater Houston area. To this end, LEAD-STEM will emphasize incorporation of culturally responsive teaching (CRT) in secondary STEM curricula. The project activities will equip the LEAD-STEM MTFs with the knowledge and skills needed to: mentor secondary STEM preservice teachers in the teachHOUSTON Program; work collaboratively with in-service teachers throughout the district and state; and serve as change agents at the local, regional and national levels. Additionally, project activities will focus on: 1) the combined roles of technology, inquiry-based instruction, and CRT in supporting the development of STEM concepts in secondary, underrepresented students; 2) the refinement of MTFs' instructional practices specific to CRT; and 3) the development of teachers' leadership skills. In partnership with the National Math and Science Initiative (NSMI) and the Greater Houston high-need school district (among the country's largest in population and area), this project will recruit and prepare 30 secondary science and mathematics teachers to serve as teacher-leaders on public school campuses with high enrollment of underrepresented students. LEAD-STEM MTFs will earn a Curriculum and Instruction master's degree with an emphasis in STEM Education. They will participate in summer professional development experiences and instructional coaching guided by project leaders. The experiences of designing and delivering professional development locally will help the MTFs transition to leadership at the national level, through the partnership and support of NMSI. The combination of grounding STEM instruction in culturally responsive pedagogies and using this knowledge to address equity and learning disparities in STEM education may produce a generalizable model of instruction. This project may also serve as a model for other teacher leader development efforts across the country.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.

通过公平和倡导发展STEM的领导力(LEAD-STEM)是休斯顿大学的Noyce Track 3硕士教学奖学金(MTF)项目。LEAD-STEM将关注美国城市高中严重缺乏有效的中学科学和数学教师领导的问题。它还将利用有关大休斯顿地区目前的人口结构反映美国未来人口结构的报告。该项目将在大休斯顿地区的高需求学区培养、指导和留住STEM教师领袖。为此，LEAD-STEM将强调将响应文化的教学(CRT)纳入中学STEM课程。项目活动将使牵头的STEM MTF掌握所需的知识和技能，以便：指导THENTHOUSTON计划中的STEM中级职前教师；与整个地区和州的在职教师合作；在地方、地区和国家各级充当变革推动者。此外，项目活动将侧重于：1)技术、探究式教学和CRT在支持代表不足的中学学生发展STEM概念方面的综合作用；2)改进MTF针对CRT的教学实践；以及3)发展教师的领导技能。该项目将与国家数学和科学倡议(NSMI)和大休斯顿高中需要教育学区(全国人口和面积最大的学区之一)合作，招聘和培养30名中学科学和数学教师，在入学率较低的公立学校校园担任教师领导。Lead-STEM MTF将获得课程和教学硕士学位，重点是STEM教育。他们将参加暑期专业发展体验和由项目负责人指导的教学指导。在当地设计和提供专业发展的经验将有助于中期战略框架通过国家管理系统的伙伴关系和支持过渡到国家一级的领导地位。将STEM教学与响应文化的教育学相结合，并利用这一知识解决STEM教育中的公平和学习差距问题，可能会产生一种可推广的教学模式。该项目也可以作为全国其他教师领袖发展努力的典范。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
