Urban Educators: Robert Noyce SCholarship for Mathematics and Science Teachers

印第安纳大学-普渡大学印第安纳波利斯分校的城市教育工作者计划(IUPUI)正在利用诺伊斯奖学金实现两个主要目标：(1)将获得科学和/或数学二级认证的学生总数增加一倍，从25人增加到50人；(2)支持至少6名少数族裔考生完成数学和科学教学认证课程。通过在IUPUI科学学院和周边大学有针对性地招收学生，以及招募STEM专业人员参加为期一年的教学过渡(T2T)学士学位教师认证计划，这两个目标都得到了实现。诺伊斯奖学金为准备充分的申请者提供了强大的经济和专业激励。成功的诺伊斯学者被安置在印第安纳波利斯公立学区的高需求学校。为参加T2T项目的诺伊斯学者提供专业支持，通过合作教学模式，将两名T2T学生与印第安纳波利斯公立学校系统中的一名成功教师紧密配对。此外，STEM和教育教职员工在教学的头两年指导诺伊斯学者。IUPUI Noyce计划的智力价值在于将教育研究与中学科学教师的招聘、教育和专业发展相结合。该计划正在产生广泛的影响，向高需求的中学提供合格的科学和数学教师，并通过同行评议的出版物、会议和向当地和全国社区发表演讲的方式，将该计划的成功传播到其他教师培训计划。

The Urban Educators Program at Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) is using Noyce Scholarships to achieve two primary goals: (1) doubling the total number of students who obtain secondary certification in science and/or mathematics, from 25 to 50, and (2) supporting at least six ethnic minority candidates completing math and science teaching certification programs. Both of these goals are being met through targeted recruitment of students within the IUPUI School of Science and surrounding universities, as well as recruitment of STEM professionals into the one-year Transition to Teaching (T2T) post baccalaureate teacher certification program. Noyce Scholarships are providing a strong financial and professional incentive for well-prepared applicants. Successful Noyce scholars are being placed in high-need schools in the Indianapolis Public School district. Professional support for Noyce Scholars enrolled in the T2T program is being provided through a co-teaching model, which pairs two T2T students closely with a successful teacher in the Indianapolis Public School system. In addition, STEM and Education faculty members mentor Noyce scholars during the first two years of teaching. The intellectual merit of the IUPUI Noyce Program is found in the integration of educational research with the recruitment, education, and professional development of secondary school science teachers. The program is having broad impacts by providing qualified science and math teachers to high-need secondary schools, and by disseminating the successes of the program to other teacher preparation programs by means of peer-reviewed publications, conferences, and presentations to the local and national community.
