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.

将数学专业的过渡到教学（TMMT）是我的一项Noyce Track I Project，旨在鼓励才华横溢的数学专业成为中学数学老师。该项目旨在招募和准备高需求的当地教育机构的高效数学教师，并增加高素质的二级教师的数量。 TMMT是加利福尼亚州立大学，富勒顿（CSUF），阿纳海姆联合高中区（UHSD），圣塔安娜统一学区（AUSD）和圣塔安娜社区学院（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专业的专业，并识别并招募11名Noyce Associates和10个Noyce学者，成为数学教学的集中度。 TMMT项目将为Noyce Associates和Noyce学者提供实习。 CSUF和SAC的新生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，包括由两个机构主持的内容和教学研讨会，辅导机会，以及探视伙伴中学数学课堂。在大三，高级和后学士学位年度期间，员工将被修饰成为Noyce学者。这项合作旨在为未来的教师教授中学数学教学的经验，从大学的第一年到学士后的证书年份。将提供一系列的丰富和支持经验。学者过渡到他们的第一个教学工作后，TMMT将提供归纳支持，包括在CSUF上推出了数学教师圈子。 （这些是K-12数学老师和数学家的专业社区，他们定期开会，以解决丰富的数学问题，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合作伙伴关系。同时，TMMT将创建一个有效，可持续的模型，以准备在教学轨道上从社区学院转移到四年制机构的前瞻性中学数学教师，从而增加了有关如何简化此过程的新知识。该项目将研究指导对持久性率和成功获得学位和教学证书的成功的有效性。结果将通过TMMT网站以及美国数学协会（MAA），全国数学教师委员会（NCTM）和数学教师教育合作伙伴（MTE-Partnership）等专业组织进行传播。 CSUF和SAC是西班牙裔服务机构，Anaheim UHSD和Santa Ana USD是加利福尼亚州奥兰治县的高需求学区。由于Noyce学者将寻求包括各种各样的群体，因此学者将成为多元化学生的榜样和导师，从而促进CSUF服务领域中多元化的中学学生的数学和科学职业的访问。该奖项反映了NSF的法规任务，并认为通过基金会的知识优点和广泛的criter scritia crietia criters crietia crititia crietia criteria crietia criteria crititia crietia criteria crietia crietia crietia均值得一提。
