The Tribal Colleges and Universities Program (TCUP) goals are to 1) increase the science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) instructional and research capacities of specific institutions of higher education that serve the Nation's Indigenous students, and 2) promote the advancement of intellectual leadership within TCUP institutions to support them in addressing the STEM priorities of their tribes, communities, or broadly of the United States. Supporting both goals is the program’s funding strand known as TCUP for Secondary and Elementary Teachers in STEM (TSETS) which provides funding for TCUP institutions to work with local precollege educators in strengthening their STEM instructional and research capacity to thereby enhance students’ preparation for advanced STEM education and entry into the STEM workforce. The TSETS: E Kukulu Ke Kahua a Paa: Build the Foundation Until Firm project aligns with TCUP goals through its work to build the mathematical content and instructional knowledge of local K-12 teachers who work in schools serving Native Hawaiian (NH) students on the island of Kauai. Engaging two cohorts of teachers for three years each, the project will employ an array of activities partnering University of Hawaii - Kauai Community College STEM (UH-KCC) faculty, NH knowledge keepers and local precollege educators in a learning community that also emphasizes the development of cultural competence to further enhance teachers’ effectiveness in working with NH students.This TSETS project will provide three years of ongoing professional development for two teacher cohorts, designed to improve precollege educators’ skills and knowledge relevant to mathematics instruction. The project will use evidence-based practices that include enrollment in mathematics course work, regular and as-needed coaching by teacher mentors, the development of culturally responsive STEM curriculum, and deep examination of in-situ instructional practice through engagement in Lesson Study. The project participants will be immersed in these activities as part of a learning community known as a Math Hui, collaborating closely with UH-KCC STEM faculty members and cultural knowledge bearers from the local NH community. Lessons learned from this iterative action research project will be shared in professional forums to further advance the knowledge base on effective STEM education, particularly relevant to supporting Native Hawaiian students’ STEM outcomes.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.

部落学院和大学计划（TCUP）的目标是：1）提高为全国土著学生服务的特定高等教育机构的科学，技术，工程和数学（STEM）教学和研究能力，2）促进TCUP机构内知识领导的进步，以支持他们解决其部落，社区，或者说整个美国支持这两个目标的是该计划的资金链称为TCUP的中学和小学教师在干（TSETS），它提供资金TCUP机构与当地学前教育工作者在加强他们的STEM教学和研究能力，从而提高学生的准备先进的STEM教育和进入STEM劳动力。TSETS：E Kukulu Ke Kahua a Paa：建立基金会，直到公司项目通过其工作，以建立数学内容和教学知识的当地K-12教师谁在学校工作服务夏威夷土著（NH）的学生在考艾岛与TCUP的目标保持一致。该项目将与夏威夷大学考艾岛社区学院STEM（UH-KCC）教师合作开展一系列活动，在一个学习型社区中，NH知识管理者和当地学前教育工作者也强调文化能力的发展，以进一步提高教师与NH学生合作的有效性。为两个教师群体制定了一项计划，旨在提高学前教育工作者与数学教学有关的技能和知识。该项目将使用基于证据的实践，包括数学课程工作的入学，教师导师的定期和按需辅导，文化响应STEM课程的开发，以及通过参与课程研究深入检查现场教学实践。项目参与者将沉浸在这些活动中，作为被称为数学会的学习社区的一部分，与UH-KCC STEM教师和当地NH社区的文化知识承载者密切合作。从这个迭代行动研究项目中吸取的经验教训将在专业论坛上分享，以进一步推进有效STEM教育的知识基础，特别是与支持夏威夷原住民学生的STEM成果有关。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标准进行评估来支持。
