This Noyce Teacher Scholarship and Stipend project will prepare 15 undergraduates with interest and ability in mathematics to teach in high-needs rural or urban-centered school districts. Each student who completes the program, will graduate with a bachelor's degree in mathematics as well as with a bachelor's degree in secondary education (mathematics) or a master's degree in mathematics education. The scholars will be provided with opportunities to (a) tutor students in an Upward Bound or a second-language learning program, (b) design and teach lessons, (c) do a variety of field placements, and (d) participate in seminars that focus on place-based teaching in high-needs schools. The project will be conducted in partnership with a variety of Pennsylvania schools in Bald Eagle, McKeesport Area, Moshannon Valley, Penns Valley, West Branch, West Mifflin Area, Woodland Hills, and in Pittsburgh City Schools.The key features of the project (multiple field placements, place-based pedagogy, and high school to college connections) are grounded on emerging research in the training of pre-service teachers. Throughout the project, students will be given the opportunity to participate in field experiences such as the Philadelphia Urban Seminar, a placement during which students, will be immersed in an urban high-needs community. The coursework related to linking high school and college mathematics should enable the new teachers to help their students become college-ready. Formative and summative evaluation will address the success of the program in reaching its retention, graduation, placement, and educational goals. Assessment will be performed through a series of interviews, focus groups, and classroom observations. Project results will be presented at meetings of the Association of Mathematics Teacher Educators and the Mathematics Association of America group on Research in Undergraduate Mathematics Education. Manuscripts will be submitted to the Journal of Teacher Education, the Journal of Mathematics Teacher Education, and the Mathematics Teacher Educator.

这个Noyce教师奖学金和津贴项目将为15名具有兴趣和能力的本科生准备在高需求的农村或以城市为中心的学区任教。每个完成该计划的学生，都将获得数学学士学位以及中学教育学士学位（数学）或数学教育硕士学位。 学者将获得（a）在向上或第二语言学习计划中的导师学生，（b）设计和教课程，（c）进行各种现场安置，（d）参加专注于高需求学校的基于地位的教学的研讨会。 该项目将与巴尔德鹰，麦基斯波特地区，莫沙农谷，宾夕法尼亚山谷，西部分支，西米夫林地区，伍德兰希尔斯和匹兹堡市学校的各种宾夕法尼亚州的学校合作进行。在整个项目中，学生将有机会参加诸如费城城市研讨会之类的现场经验，这是一个学生将沉浸在城市高需求社区的位置。 与高中和大学数学相关的课程应使新老师能够帮助他们的学生准备上大学。 形成性和总结性评估将解决该计划在达到其保留，毕业，安置和教育目标方面的成功。 评估将通过一系列访谈，焦点小组和课堂观察进行。 项目结果将在数学教师教育工作者协会和美国数学研究生研究小组的数学学教育协会的会议上介绍。手稿将提交给《教师教育杂志》，《数学教师教育杂志》和《数学教师教育者》。
