Learning To Teach for Equity in Science and Mathematics Classrooms: The Florida State University Noyce Scholarship Program

该奖项是根据2009年美国复苏和再投资法案（公法111-5）资助的。该项目招募的42名诺伊斯学者受益于一个新制定的计划，该计划是由佛罗里达州立大学三个独立的科学和数学中学教师准备计划的改造而产生的。 它是仿照得克萨斯大学奥斯汀分校的U-Teach计划。两个学区，加兹登县和莱昂县，以及塔拉哈西社区学院正在与FSU合作，以确保强大的招聘基础和适当的学校经验的学者。智力优势：除了诺伊斯学者强大的科学和数学背景，该计划旨在培养具有特殊技能的教师，与有特殊需要的地区合作，并分析如何最好地实现这一目标。 导师与学者从他们进入该计划的开始，以确保学生获得适当的积极经验，并有机会反思和学习这些经验。 该计划包括为学者举办的讲习班和研讨会，重点介绍他们在高需求地区将遇到的一些挑战，以及如何最好地应对这些挑战。 更广泛的影响：除了学者对学校和学生的影响，他们将通过一个新的教师入职计划，特别导师将与诺伊斯学者毕业后，创造一个持续的社区，致力于解决和满足高需求学区遇到的挑战。

This award is funded under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Public Law 111-5).The forty-two Noyce Scholars recruited into this project are benefiting from a newly instituted program resulting from a revamping of three separate science and mathematics secondary teacher preparation programs at Florida State University. It is modeled after the U-Teach Program at the University of Texas Austin. Two school districts, Gadsden County and Leon County, and the Tallahassee Community College are partnering with FSU to ensure a strong recruiting base and appropriate school experiences for the Scholars. Intellectual Merit: In addition to the strong science and mathematics background the Noyce Scholars have, the program is designed to produce teachers with special skills in working with districts with special needs and to analyze how best to accomplish this. Mentors work with the Scholars from the beginning of their entry into the program to ensure that students get appropriate positive experiences and have an opportunity to reflect on and learn from those experiences. The program includes workshops and seminars for the Scholars that highlight some of the challenges they will encounter in high needs districts and how best to meet these challenges. Broader Impacts: In addition to the impact of the Scholars on the schools and students they will work with, through a new teacher induction program, special mentors will work with the Noyce Scholars after graduation to create an ongoing community devoted to addressing and meeting the challenges encountered in high needs school districts.
