The Northern New Jersey Mathematics and Science Teacher (MAST) Fellowship Program at New Jersey City University

数学和科学教学(MAST)研究员项目是新泽西城市大学、新泽西州北部的三个高中需要学区(泽西城、联合城和学院宪章高中)以及非营利性合作伙伴拉丁裔研究所和城市联盟之间的合作伙伴。自由科学中心也是该项目的参与者。合作伙伴正在共同努力培养和保留20名教学研究员，他们将是高素质的中学数学和科学教师，并在课堂上利用循证教学创新。正在从该区域最近毕业的STEM毕业生中招聘研究员。研究员正在参加辅导和专业发展活动，旨在加强他们的教学，并为他们提供留住教学的支助结构。该项目正在接受严格的评估，以确定该计划对研究员的教学知识、教学内容知识、教学实践的影响，并最终确定该计划对学生数学和科学学习的影响。

The Math and Science Teaching (MAST) Fellows project represents a partnership among New Jersey City University, three high needs school districts in northern New Jersey (Jersey City, Union City, and Academy Charter High School), and the non-profit partners Latino Institute and the Urban League. The Liberty Science Center is also a participant on the project. The partners are working together to develop and retain twenty Teaching Fellows who will be secondary mathematics and science teachers who are highly qualified and who utilize evidence-based teaching innovations in their classrooms. Fellows are being recruited from recent STEM graduates in the region. The Fellows are participating in mentoring and professional development activities designed to enhance their teaching and to provide them with a support structure for retention in teaching. The project is being rigorously assessed to determine the impact of the program on the Fellows' content knowledge, pedagogical content knowledge, instructional practices, and ultimately the impact of the program on their students' mathematics and science learning.
