Transitioning Math Majors into Teaching

将数学专业转化为教学（TMMT）是诺伊斯的一个项目，旨在鼓励有才华的数学专业成为中学数学教师。该项目旨在为高需求的地方教育机构招聘和培养高效的数学教师，并增加高素质的中学数学教师的数量。TMMT是加州州立大学，富勒顿（CSUF），阿纳海姆联合高中区（UHSD），圣安娜联合学区（AUSD）和圣安娜社区学院（SAC）之间的合作。每年五年，CSUF自然科学与数学学院和教育学院以及SAC的数学教师将积极接触STEM专业，并确定和招募11名Noyce Associates和10名Noyce Scholars进入数学教学集中。TMMT项目将为Noyce Associates提供实习机会，并为Noyce Scholars提供奖学金。CSUF和SAC的大一和大二学生将被招募为Noyce Associates，并获得有意的指导经验和实习机会，包括由这两个机构主办的内容和教学研讨会，辅导机会以及访问合作伙伴中学数学教室。同事将在他们的初级，高级和学士学位后的证书年培养成为诺伊斯学者。此次合作旨在为未来的教师创造一系列中学数学教学经验，从大学一年级到学士学位后的证书年。将为同事和学者提供一系列丰富和支持性的经验。在学者过渡到他们的第一个教学工作后，TMMT将提供入职支持，包括在CSUF推出数学教师圈。（这些是K-12数学教师和数学家的专业社区，定期开会研究丰富的数学问题，使教师能够丰富他们的数学知识和经验，同时与其他教师和数学家建立有意义的伙伴关系。通过这种方式，TMMT将帮助支持协会和学者发展成为高效的数学教师，他们坚持自己的职业生涯。与此同时，TMMT将创建一个有效的，可持续的模式，准备未来的中学数学教师谁在教学轨道从社区大学转移到四年制院校，从而增加了关于如何简化这一过程的新知识。该项目将审查辅导在坚持率和成功获得学位和教学证书方面的有效性。结果将通过TMMT网站以及美国数学协会（MAA），全国数学教师理事会（NCTM）和数学教师教育伙伴关系（MTE-Partnership）等专业组织进行传播。CSUF和SAC是为西班牙裔服务的机构，阿纳海姆UHSD和圣安娜USD是加利福尼亚州橙子县的高需求学区。由于诺伊斯学者将寻求包括不同的群体，学者将作为榜样和导师，为不同的学生，从而促进获得数学和科学的职业生涯为不同的中学生在CSUF服务领域。这个奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并已被认为是值得通过评估使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准的支持。

Transitioning Math Majors into Teaching (TMMT) is a Noyce Track I project designed to encourage talented mathematics majors to become secondary school mathematics teachers. The project seeks to recruit and prepare highly effective mathematics teachers in high-need local educational agencies as well as increase the number of highly qualified secondary math teachers. TMMT is a collaboration between California State University, Fullerton (CSUF), the Anaheim Union High School District (UHSD), Santa Ana Unified School District (AUSD) and Santa Ana Community College (SAC). Each year for five years, the CSUF College of Natural Sciences and Mathematics and College of Education, and math faculty at SAC will actively reach out to the STEM majors and identify and recruit 11 Noyce Associates and 10 Noyce Scholars into a mathematics teaching concentration. The TMMT project will provide internships for the Noyce Associates and scholarships for Noyce Scholars. Freshmen and Sophomore students at CSUF and SAC will be recruited to be Noyce Associates and receive intentional mentoring experiences and internships, including content and teaching seminars hosted by the two institutions, tutoring opportunities, and visitations to partner secondary school math classrooms. Associates will be groomed to become Noyce Scholars during their Junior, Senior, and post baccalaureate credential year. This collaboration seeks to create a continuum of experiences in teaching secondary school mathematics for future teachers, from the first year of college through the post-baccalaureate credential year.Associates and Scholars will be provided with a range of enrichment and supportive experiences. After Scholars transition into their first teaching jobs, TMMT will provide induction support, including the launch of a Math Teachers' Circle at CSUF. (These are professional communities of K-12 mathematics teachers and mathematicians that meet regularly to work on rich mathematics problems, allowing teachers to enrich their knowledge and experience of math, while building meaningful partnerships with other teachers and mathematicians.) In this way, TMMT will help support the Associates' and Scholars' development into highly effective mathematics teachers who persist in their careers. At the same time, TMMT will create an effective, sustainable model for preparing prospective secondary school mathematics teachers who transfer in a teaching track from community college to a four-year institution, thus adding new knowledge on how to streamline this process. The project will examine the effectiveness of mentoring on persistence rates and success in achieving a degree and teaching credential. Results will be disseminated via the TMMT website as well as through professional organizations such as Mathematical Association of America (MAA), the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM), and the Math Teacher Education Partnership (MTE-Partnership). CSUF and SAC are Hispanic-serving institutions and Anaheim UHSD and Santa Ana USD are high-need school districts in Orange County, CA. Because the Noyce Scholars will seek to include diverse groups, the Scholars will serve as role models and mentors for diverse students, thus promoting access to mathematics and science careers for diverse secondary students in the CSUF service area.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
