With support from the Robert Noyce Teacher Scholarship Program (Noyce), this Track 1: Scholarships and Stipends project aims to serve the national need for culturally competent STEM secondary teachers in high-need school districts. Teachers who understand the culture of their students and the learning environment are critical to successful K-12 STEM education in high-need schools and districts. This project will address pre-service teachers' understanding of cultural competency and the relationship between cultural competency and gender. In addition, it will examine the impact of early field experiences on community building among current STEM teachers, preservice STEM teachers, and K-12 students. Project activities will include a Master of Arts in Teaching teacher certification program that features a one-year teaching internship in a diverse, high-need school. During the teaching internship, Noyce scholarship recipients will conduct action research, engage in cultural activities, participate in roundtable collaborations with a STEM teacher community, and complete an early field experience. The outcomes of the project have the potential to inform teacher education practices, improve understanding of teachers' cultural competency, and increase knowledge about how early field research experiences affect teacher capability and community building. Through this Noyce project, Clarkson University will recruit 20 STEM majors and prepare them for careers as science and mathematics teachers in high-need school districts in the rural north and urban capital region of New York state. The project will provide these undergraduates with scholarships during the undergraduate senior year and the post-baccalaureate/MAT degree year, as well as additional supports to help the Noyce Scholars to: 1) develop cultural competency in rural and urban settings; 2) conduct collaborative research; and 3) engage in STEM educational communities. Induction resources and support will also be provided during the Noyce scholars' early years of teaching. The project will partner with Schenectady City School District and Gouverneur Central School District in New York to share effective practices in recruiting, training, placement, and support for talented teachers in high-need schools and districts. Project evaluation will be conducted through focus group discussions, together with established instruments focusing on STEM teaching self-efficacy, competency, attitudes, and multicultural sensitivity. The project has the potential to benefit society by integrating teacher preparation and research to recruit, prepare, and retain a talented and effective STEM education workforce of culturally responsive teachers. The Noyce program supports talented STEM undergraduate majors and professionals to become effective K-12 STEM teachers in high-need school districts and experienced, exemplary K-12 STEM teachers to become STEM master teachers. It also supports research on the persistence, retention, and effectiveness of K-12 STEM teachers in high-need school districts.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.

在罗伯特·诺伊斯（Robert Noyce）教师奖学金计划（NOYCE）的支持下，这首歌1：奖学金和津贴项目旨在满足国家对高需求学区具有文化胜任的STEM中学教师的需求。了解学生文化和学习环境的教师对于在高需求的学校和地区成功的K-12 STEM教育至关重要。该项目将解决职前教师对文化能力以及文化能力与性别之间关系的理解。 此外，它将研究早期现场经验对当前STEM教师，职前STEM教师和K-12学生之间社区建设的影响。项目活动将包括一项教学教师认证计划的艺术硕士学位，该计划在一所高需求的学校中具有为期一年的教学实习。在教学实习期间，Noyce奖学金获得者将进行行动研究，从事文化活动，与STEM教师社区进行圆桌合作，并完成早期的现场经验。该项目的结果有可能为教师教育实践提供信息，提高对教师文化能力的理解，并提高人们对早期研究经历如何影响教师能力和社区建设的知识。通过这个Noyce项目，克拉克森大学将招募20个STEM专业，并为纽约州北部和城市首都地区高需求学区的科学和数学教师做好准备。 该项目将在本科高年级和学期/垫子学期期间为这些大学生提供奖学金，并提供其他支持，以帮助Noyce学者到：1）在农村和城市环境中发展文化能力； 2）进行合作研究； 3）参与STEM教育社区。在Noyce学者的早期教学期间，还将提供归纳资源和支持。该项目将与纽约的Schenectady City学区和Gouverneur Central School District合作，以分享在高需求学校和地区的才华横溢的招聘，培训，安置和支持方面的有效实践。项目评估将通过焦点小组的讨论以及既定的工具，重点介绍了STEM教学自我效能，能力，态度和多元文化敏感性。该项目有可能通过整合教师的准备和研究来招募，准备和保留具有文化反应迅速的教师的才华横溢，有效的STEM教育劳动力，从而有可能使社会受益。 NOYCE计划支持有才华的STEM本科专业和专业人士成为高需求学区的有效K-12 STEM老师，并经验丰富的K-12 STEM老师成为STEM大师教师。它还支持有关K-12 STEM教师在高需求学区的持久性，保留和有效性的研究。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并使用基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛的影响审查标准，认为值得通过评估来支持。
