Advance Urban Learning: Teach Science

与印第安纳波利斯公立学校（IPS）合作，印第安纳州普渡大学印第安纳波利斯分校（IUPUI）为毕业后承诺在城市或高需求地区工作的合格科学教师候选人提供罗伯特诺伊斯奖学金。 IPS内新科学教师的30%的自然减员率和全州范围内攻读科学学位的新教师人数不足是IUPUI-IPS Noyce合作伙伴关系正在解决的两个特别关注的领域。 目标是在四年内毕业30名生物学，化学，物理学或地球科学教师，他们已获得普渡大学（IUPUI）的STEM学士学位，并符合印第安纳州专业标准部门对6 - 12年级科学教学的要求。 先进的城市学习：教科学项目基于IUPUI成功的“学而教，教而学”计划中现有的当前教学法和教育研究，该计划以关注城市环境中的教学挑战而闻名。 经验丰富的教师担任导师和主机诺伊斯学者在他们的教室。招聘工作的重点是吸引少数民族学生从事教学工作，包括为大一和大二学生开设一门关于探索教学职业的课程。该项目拓宽和扩大了目前的罗伯特·诺伊斯奖学金后学士学位计划在IUPUI包括本科生物学，化学，物理学和地球科学的学生。 诺伊斯学者是未来的领导者，他们在各自的内容领域进行了广泛的准备，并精通当前的教学实践，使该行业的同事以及他们指导和指导的学生都受益。这个多元化的群体也作为连续诺伊斯教师候选人未来的导师。

In partnership with the Indianapolis Public Schools (IPS), Indiana University-Purdue University at Indianapolis (IUPUI) is offering Robert Noyce Scholarships to qualified science teacher candidates who commit to working in an urban or high-need district after graduation. The 30% attrition rate of new science teachers within IPS and inadequate numbers of new teachers pursuing science degrees statewide are two particular areas of concern that the IUPUI-IPS Noyce partnership is addressing. The goal is to graduate 30 Biology, Chemistry, Physics, or Earth Science teachers over four years, who have earned a STEM bachelor's degree from Purdue University (IUPUI) and also fulfilled the Indiana Division of Professional Standards requirements for teaching Science in grades 6 -12. The Advance Urban Learning: Teach Science project is based on current pedagogy and educational research existing within IUPUI's successful "Learning to Teach, Teaching to Learn" program, known for its focus on the challenges of teaching in an urban context. Experienced teachers serve as mentors and host Noyce Scholars in their classrooms. Recruitment efforts focus on attracting minority students into teaching and include a course for freshman and sophomores on exploring teaching as a career. This project broadens and expands the current Robert Noyce Scholarship post-baccalaureate program at IUPUI to include undergraduate Biology, Chemistry, Physics, and Earth Science students. Noyce Scholars are future leaders who have undergone extensive preparation in their content areas and are also well-versed in current pedagogical practice, benefiting both colleagues in the profession as well as the students they guide and instruct. This diverse group also serves as future mentors for successive Noyce teacher candidates.
