This $891,044 National Science Foundation project grant supports East Carolina University in developing specialized training for secondary mathematics and science teachers serving rural, high-need school districts in eastern North Carolina. Funded under the NSF's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076), the project will recruit 30 future teachers through partnerships with local community colleges and provide them with microcredentials and virtual reality simulations focused on the needs of rural communities. Participants will receive mentoring from alumni of previous NSF Noyce Scholarship grants during their final two years of dual bachelor's degree programs in science/science education or mathematics/mathematics education fields. The goal is to better prepare secondary STEM teachers for the unique challenges of rural, high-need districts through specialized education and professional community support. Evaluation will assess the project's impact on participants' knowledge, competencies, and self-efficacy for culturally responsive teaching. Outcomes include 30 new STEM teachers by 2028 and microcredentials that could benefit other teacher preparation programs.
