Tech to Teaching

技术教学项目正在创建一个基础设施上的格鲁吉亚技术校园，鼓励和使本科生和研究生有效地追求职业生涯中的K-12或大学教学，并正在开发和实施编程，确保这些学生在他们的最初几年在这些职业道路上取得成功。 这一努力包括采取步骤，将一个广泛开展研究的技术学院转变为一个有效促进和支持进入教师职业的组织。 新的基础设施和编程调整和适应倡议开发的其他格鲁吉亚技术NSF教育计划，如学生和教师增强合作伙伴关系（STEP）GK-12计划，促进学术职业在工程和科学（FACES）AGEP计划，众多IGERT和RET计划在校园里，和罗伯特诺伊斯计划授予格鲁吉亚技术与肯尼索州立大学合作。 技术到教学基础设施也是校园内许多单位之间的合作，包括咨询，学术课程，指导，沉浸式体验以及过渡或入门支持。 此外，该项目正在通过使用格鲁吉亚理工学院的研究生作为合作伙伴教室的讲师，加强格鲁吉亚理工学院与格鲁吉亚高等教育伙伴机构（如斯佩尔曼学院和格鲁吉亚周边学院）之间的联系。 最终，技术到教学将包括系统和程序，人员和资源，以确保教学职业的途径是清晰和明亮的，为学生和他们的顾问提供必要的课程，指导和沉浸式体验，以促进学生通过学术管道成功过渡到这些教学职业。 随着技术教学取得成果，格鲁吉亚技术将保持教学基础设施的水平，以满足其学生群体的需求，希望改善无数未来学生在全国各地的学院和大学的STEM教育经验作为格鲁吉亚技术学生进入学术界。

The Tech to Teaching project is creating an infrastructure on the Georgia Tech campus that encourages and enables undergraduate and graduate students to effectively pursue careers in K-12 or college teaching, and is developing and implementing programming that ensures these students succeed in their initial years in these career paths. This effort includes steps towards the institutional transformation of a research-extensive technical institute into an organization that effectively promotes and supports entry to teaching careers. The new infrastructure and programming align and adapt initiatives developed for other Georgia Tech NSF educational programs, such as the Student and Teacher Enhancement Partnership (STEP) GK-12 program, the Facilitating Academic Careers in Engineering and Science (FACES) AGEP program, the numerous IGERT and RET programs on campus, and a Robert Noyce program awarded to Georgia Tech in partnership with Kennesaw State University. The Tech to Teaching infrastructure also is a collaboration between many units on campus, including advising, academic courses, mentoring, immersion experiences, and transition or induction support. In addition, the project is increasing ties between Georgia Tech and partner institutions of higher education in Georgia, such as Spelman College and Georgia Perimeter College, through the use of Georgia Tech graduate students as instructors in the partners' classrooms. Ultimately, Tech to Teaching will encompass the systems and procedures, personnel and resources to ensure that the pathways to teaching careers are clear and well-lit for both the students and their advisors with the necessary courses, mentoring, and immersion experiences in place to facilitate the students' successful transitions through the academic pipeline to these teaching careers. As Tech to Teaching comes to fruition, Georgia Tech will maintain the teaching infrastructure at the level needed to meet the demands of its student population, hopefully improving the STEM educational experiences of countless future students at colleges and universities across the country as the Georgia Tech students enter the academic world.
