Northern Arizona University Noyce Fellows Program

该项目在北亚利桑那大学（NAU）建立了一个Noyce研究员计划，并建立在最近实施的新的本科教师准备计划NAUTeach和新的STEM专业学士后教师准备计划数学或科学教师证书（C-MOST）的基础上。NAUTeach是一个模仿UTeach计划的本科科学和数学教师培训计划。C-MOST项目吸引了STEM职业转行者，可以在三个学期内通过在线或面对面的形式完成。通过这两个项目，以及诺伊斯教师奖学金项目，NAU承诺到2013年每年培养80名中学科学和数学毕业生。该项目为56名科学和数学教师候选人提供一年1.5万美元的津贴或奖学金。该项目还包括一个入门项目，为Noyce研究员提供持续的培训和支持，并包括面对面和远程交付形式。此外，通过与梅萨社区学院（MCC）的合作，NAU诺伊斯研究员计划每年为来自马里科帕县社区学院区（MCCCD）和NAU的75名大一或大二学生提供实习机会，这些学生对STEM学科感兴趣。与MCCCD的合作提供了一条从社区学院到NAU教师认证项目的管道，以增加从事科学和数学教学的学生的多样性，并为该州经常难以聘请合格的中学科学和数学教师的地区的教师做准备。

This project establishes a Noyce Fellows Program at Northern Arizona University (NAU) and builds on a recently implemented new undergraduate teacher preparation program, NAUTeach, and a new post-baccalaureate teacher preparation program for STEM professionals, the Certificate for Mathematics or Science Teachers (C-MOST). NAUTeach is an undergraduate science and mathematics teacher preparation program modeled after the UTeach program. The C-MOST program attracts STEM career changers and can be completed in three semesters in on-line or face to face formats. Across these two programs, along with the Noyce Teacher Scholarship Program, NAU has committed to graduate 80 secondary science and mathematics each year by 2013. The project is supporting 56 science and mathematics teacher candidates with $15,000 one-year stipends or scholarships. The project also includes an induction program that provides continued training and support for Noyce fellows and includes both face to face and distance-delivery formats. Furthermore, through a partnership with Mesa Community College (MCC), the NAU Noyce Fellows Program provides internships for up to 75 freshman or sophomore students each year from the Maricopa County Community College District (MCCCD) and NAU who have expressed an interest in STEM disciplines. The partnership with MCCCD provides a pipeline from the community colleges to teacher certification programs at NAU, to increase the diversity of students who pursue teaching science and mathematics, and to prepare teachers from areas in the state that are often hard pressed to employ qualified secondary science and mathematics teachers.
