Noyce Scholarship Program of Northern Colorado

北方科罗拉多的诺伊斯奖学金计划正在增加高需求学区的科学和数学教师人数，特别是在科罗拉多东北部的农村社区。 该计划提供奖学金（每年16，000美元），以22名高素质的三年级和四年级学生在科学和数学（STEM）专业谁也完成教师准备计划在北方科罗拉多大学;和该计划提供奖学金（每年16，000美元）8 STEM专业人士返回完成他们的科学和数学教学许可证的资格。 每个诺伊斯教师承诺教至少两年的高需求的学校，他们收到的奖学金的每一年。 毕业后，每个诺伊斯教师都被分配一位经验丰富的导师，并在他们的教学入门年期间提供有针对性的研讨会。 所有诺伊斯的参与者正在建立一个持久的专业学习社区，使用社交网站相互支持。 北方科罗拉多大学与11个学区建立了明确的伙伴关系，并正在与其他8个学区制定协议。 这19个学区的学生总数为42，803人。为了建立STEM教师候选人库，80名新生和新生正在接受带薪实习，为他们提供K-12教学/辅导经验，并鼓励他们将教学视为一种职业。 该计划的智力优势是建立在北方科罗拉多大学成功的教师准备计划的基础上，解决农村社区教学的具体挑战，并最终培养更多的STEM教师。 该项目的广泛影响是满足美国对更多科学和数学教师的需求。美国，特别是在高需求和农村学区。 通过其活动，该计划增加了高素质的科学和数学教师的招聘和保留。

The Noyce Scholarship Program of Northern Colorado is increasing the number of science and mathematics teachers in high-need school districts, especially in rural communities of northeastern Colorado. The program provides scholarships ($16,000 per year) to 22 highly qualified juniors and seniors in science and mathematics (STEM) majors who also are completing the teacher preparation program at the University of Northern Colorado; and the program provides scholarships ($16,000 per year) to 8 STEM professionals that return to complete the qualifications for their science and mathematics teaching licenses. Each Noyce Teacher is committing to teach at least two years in a high-need school for each year of scholarship they receive. After graduation, each Noyce Teacher is assigned an experienced mentor and supported with focused seminars during their induction year of teaching. All Noyce participants are building a lasting professional learning community for mutual support using a social networking site. The University of Northern Colorado has an articulated partnership with 11 school districts and is developing agreements with eight other school districts. The total student population is 42,803 in these 19 school districts.To build the pool of STEM teacher candidates, 80 freshmen and sophomores are receiving paid internships that provide them with K-12 teaching/tutoring experiences and encourage them to consider teaching as a profession. The program's intellectual merits are building on the successful teacher preparation program of the University of Northern Colorado, addressing the specific challenges of teaching in rural communities, and finally, producing more STEM teachers. The program's broader impact is meeting the need for more science and mathematics teachers in the U. S., especially in high-need and rural school districts. Through its activities, the program increases recruitment and retention of highly qualified science and mathematics teachers.
