The project aims to serve the national need of preparing high-quality mathematics and science teachers committed to teaching in high-need school districts across North Carolina to improve student outcomes. Districts across the state are experiencing critical teacher shortages, particularly in mathematics and science. Additionally, the demographics of teachers do not match the diversity of students. Research shows that students perform better when they are taught by a teacher who matches the demographic characteristics of students.This project at North Carolina State University (NC State) partners with the Wake County Public School System, North Carolina Central University, Wake Technical Community College, and the College of Sciences at NC State to recruit a diverse pool of scholars interested in becoming mathematics and science teachers. The program will select 21 scholars and provide them with learning experiences to deepen their understanding of the content they are teaching, as well as pedagogical strategies to engage students from diverse populations. Evaluation activities will provide insights into how the project prepares and retains beginning teachers. The project will also examine the institutional impacts of the project on the degree programs at NC State. By the time these 21 scholars have met their teaching service requirement, approximately 9,000 students in high-need districts will have the opportunity to receive mathematics and science instruction from these highly qualified teachers. Findings from evaluation efforts will be disseminated broadly through conference presentations and publications. This Track 1: Scholarships and Stipends project is supported through the Robert Noyce Teacher Scholarship Program (Noyce). The Noyce program supports talented STEM undergraduate majors and professionals to become effective K-12 STEM teachers and experienced, exemplary K-12 teachers to become STEM master teachers in high-need school districts. It also supports research on the effectiveness and retention 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.

该项目旨在满足国家需要准备高质量的数学和科学教师，他们致力于在北卡罗来纳州的高需求学区教学以改善学生的成果。全州各地的地区都有重要的教师短缺，尤其是在数学和科学方面。此外，教师的人口统计学不符合学生的多样性。研究表明，当学生由与学生的人口统计学特征匹配的老师教授时，北卡罗来纳州立大学（NC State）的项目与韦克县公立学校系统，北卡罗来纳州中央大学，Wake技术社区学院和NC州立大学的NC Sciences的该项目相匹配。该计划将选择21种学者，并为他们提供学习经验，以加深他们对所教书内容的理解，以及教学策略，以吸引来自不同人群的学生。评估活动将提供有关该项目如何准备和保留初学教师的见解。该项目还将研究该项目对NC州学位课程的机构影响。到这21名学者满足他们的教学服务要求时，大约9,000名高需求地区的学生将有机会从这些高素质的教师那里获得数学和科学教学。评估工作中的发现将通过会议演讲和出版物广泛传播。这首歌1：奖学金和津贴项目得到了罗伯特·诺伊斯教师奖学金计划（NOYCE）的支持。 NOYCE计划支持有才华的STEM本科专业和专业人士成为有效的K-12 STEM老师，并经验丰富的K-12老师，成为高需求学区的STEM大师教师。它还支持有关K-12 STEM教师在高需求学区的有效性和保留的研究。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是值得通过基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛的影响评估标准通过评估来支持的。
