Noyce摘要1035322三十四名中学STEM教师正在通过三种课程选择之一获得认证：传统的四年制课程，可获得数学学士或生物学学士学位;为寻求职业转变的STEM专业人士提供为期两年的MAT途径;以及，一个新的第五年MAT课程（MAT 5）的学生谁第一次希望完成STEM学位，并继续第五年获得教师认证。 预计在五年计划期间，将通过传统途径培养七名教师，六名MAT职业转换者和二十一名MAT 5毕业生。 除了34名诺伊斯的副教授外，还有30名新教师将在没有诺伊斯支持的情况下毕业。 诺伊斯计划建立在现有的教育工作者招聘中心和与教育学院教师质量计划NetSCOPE的合作关系的基础上。 NetSCOPE建立了与高需求学校的联系，并为诺伊斯学者提供与学生互动，观察教室和与各学区教师和管理人员举行电话会议的机会，并调查基于研究的做法，以满足不同学生的需求。 有七个高需求学区正在与诺伊斯计划合作：切罗基县学校;切斯特县学校;费尔菲尔德县学校;兰开斯特县学校;联合县学校，约克学区1;和罗克希尔学校。

Noyce Abstract 1035322Thirty-four secondary STEM teachers are being certified through one of three program options: traditional four year program leading to a BA or BS in mathematics or BA in biology; a two year MAT pathway for STEM professionals seeking a career change; and, a new fifth year MAT program (MAT5) for students who first wish to complete the STEM degree and continue for a fifth year to earn teacher certification. Projections are for the production of seven teachers via the traditional route, six MAT career changers and twenty-one MAT5 graduates during the five year program. The thirty-four Noyce scholar-teachers are in addition to the anticipated thirty new teachers to graduate without Noyce support. The Noyce program builds on the existing Center for Educator Recruitment and partnership with College of Education Teacher Quality program, NetSCOPE. Connections to high needs schools have been established by NetSCOPE and provide Noyce scholars interaction with students, observation of classrooms and teleconferences with teachers and administrators in various school districts and opportunities to investigate research-based practices on working with diverse student needs. There are seven high needs school districts that are collaborating with the Noyce program: Cherokee County Schools; Chester County Schools; Fairfield County Schools; Lancaster County Schools; Union County Schools, York School District 1; and, Rock Hill Schools.
