USD Noyce Scholarship Program

这个项目是一个合作的努力，以产生12个高素质的中学科学和数学教师的区域高需要的学校系统在加州。 它涉及艺术和科学学院和领导和教育科学学院在圣地亚哥大学（USD），圣地亚哥联合学区，和三个社区学院，格罗斯蒙特学院，圣地亚哥梅萨学院和圣地亚哥城市学院。智力优势：该计划使用并扩展了已经在USD实施的教师准备计划中的几个强大的教师准备计划。 例如，在他们的早期（入门）教学年，教师将通过两个现有的方案，一个入门指导伙伴关系方案和一个基于研究的入门方案，其中新教师由内容专家和国家委员会认证的教师指导。 该项目对这些方法的有效性进行了研究，增加了关于科学和数学教师培训有效方法的知识基础。更广泛的影响在于高需求学区受益于诺伊斯奖学金计划的毕业生，以及USD与其社区学院和学区合作伙伴之间不断加深的联系，因为他们意识到每个人都可以在加强科学和数学教师准备方面发挥作用。

This project is a cooperative effort to produce twelve highly-qualified secondary science and mathematics teachers for regional high need school systems in California. It involves the College of Arts and Sciences and the School of Leadership and Education Sciences at the University of San Diego (USD), the San Diego Unified School District, and three community colleges, Grossmont College, San Diego Mesa College, and San Diego City College. Intellectual Merit: The program uses and expands upon several strong teacher preparation initiatives within the teacher preparation programs already in place at USD. For example during their early (induction) years of teaching, teachers will be supported through two existing programs, an Induction Mentoring Partnership Program and a research-based induction program, in which new teachers are mentored by content specialists and by Nationally Board Certified Teachers. Research within the project on the effectiveness of these approaches is adding to the knowledge base concerning effective approaches to science and mathematics teacher preparation. The broader impact resides in the high need school districts benefiting from the graduates of the Noyce scholarship program and the deepening ties developing between USD and its community college and school district partners as they realize the part each can play in strengthening science and mathematics teacher preparation.
