This Phase II project builds on the successes of the previous Phase I award which recruited and prepared four cohorts of new science and mathematics teachers, providing them with mentors and over 1,150 hours of field-based urban and rural experiences in learning to teach for diversity, and with special workshops and seminars geared towards developing the knowledge and skills they need to teach science and math effectively in high needs schools and districts. Mentoring is provided by Michigan State University (MSU) faculty with expertise in urban/rural teacher education, Master teachers in urban/rural school districts, and MSU Phase I Noyce Scholars. The project seeks to: (a) increase the number of teacher candidates from underrepresented backgrounds, from among those mathematics and science students not already in the education track, and from students in high-need science areas (i.e., physical and geosciences), and (b) provide a greater network of support across the teacher preparation years and the first years of teaching. The Phase II project expands the Michigan State University (MSU) Noyce Program through the following four objectives: (1) To recruit and retain three cohorts of MSU Noyce Scholars who are committed to teaching in high needs schools and districts; (2) To support MSU Noyce Scholars in developing the knowledge, skills and dispositions they need to excel and persist in teaching placements in high needs schools and districts; (3) To collaborate with and leverage powerful programs in place at MSU in teacher education induction programs in order to provide MSU Noyce Scholars with institutional and peer support; and (4) To determine the effectiveness of the MSU Noyce Scholars program in recruiting, retaining and supporting new teachers in attaining high needs placements, and to investigate the impact of the project on students supported under the first award in terms of their performance as teachers, their completion of the teaching requirement, and their retention in the teaching profession. The project is providing Noyce Scholarships to recruit and prepare 17 STEM majors to teach in urban school districts including Detroit and Chicago Public Schools.

该第二阶段项目的基础是上一阶段奖的成功，该奖项招募和准备了四个新的科学和数学教师，为他们提供了导师，并为他们提供了1,150小时的基于现场的城市和农村经验，以学习多样性，并为特殊的研讨会和研讨会提供了专门的研讨会和研讨会，并致力于发展科学和数学的知识和技能，并有效地教学和数学的学校和学区，并在高等教育中和学区和学区和学区。 指导由密歇根州立大学（MSU）教师提供，具有城市/农村教师教育，城市/农村学区的硕士教师和MSU I阶段的专业知识。 该项目试图：（a）从代表性不足的背景中增加教师候选人的数量，从这些数学和科学专业的学生中，以及来自高需求科学领域（即物理和地球科学）的学生，以及（b）在教师准备年和最初的教学中提供更大的支持网络。第二阶段项目通过以下四个目标扩展了密歇根州立大学（MSU）NOYCE计划：（1）招募和保留三个MSU Noyce学者，他们致力于在高需求学校和地区教学； （2）支持MSU Noyce学者发展他们所需的知识，技能和性格，以表彰和坚持在高需求学校和地区的教学安置； （3）与MSU在教师教育入学计划中合作并利用强大的计划，以便为MSU Noyce学者提供机构和同伴的支持； （4）确定MSU Noyce学者计划在招募，保留和支持新教师获得高需求安排方面的有效性，并研究该项目对根据教师的绩效，完成教学要求以及他们在教学行业中的保留方面对学生获得支持的学生的影响。该项目正在提供Noyce奖学金，以招募并准备17个STEM专业，以在包括底特律和芝加哥公立学校在内的城市学区任教。
