The symposium focuses the nation's attention on a critical policy issue -- the severity of teacher turnover in STEM K-12 mathematics and science -- and identifies evidence-based strategies for addressing this issue. The project proposes a symposium that brings together researchers, policymakers, practitioners and opinion leaders. The meeting is designed to: (1) develop a comprehensive picture of the current knowledge base around teacher turnover; and (2) identify key strategies to improve the retention, quality and diversity of the STEM teacher workforce. The Intellectual merit of this proposal lies in building on the established record of the National Commission on Teaching and America's Future (NCTAF) who have produced several far-reaching reports. The broader impact will be in the identification of policies that can address teacher turnover and retention, disseminate them widely and begin to identify a future research agenda.

研讨会将国家的注意力集中在一个关键的政策问题上 - STEM K-12数学和科学中教师离职的严重性 - 并确定了解决此问题的基于证据的策略。该项目提出了一个研讨会，将研究人员，政策制定者，从业者和舆论领导者汇集在一起​​。会议旨在：（1）对教师流动率进行当前知识库的全面了解； （2）确定改善STEM教师劳动力的保留率，质量和多样性的关键策略。该提议的知识分子在于建立国家教学和美国未来委员会（NCTAF）的既定记录，这些记录曾产生了几份深远的报告。更广泛的影响将是确定可以解决教师流动和保留，广泛传播并开始确定未来研究议程的政策。
