PETE Follow-up Study  Evolved from NSF/CETP Programs  Collaborative effort with Colleges of Education and Science and the El Paso Community College  Reform in the teaching and learning of mathematics and science  Follow-up to document and assess the impact of PETE  Support for graduate students Program Background

Robert Noyce Scholarship Program- The Scholarships/Stipends and Mentoring Support (SSaMS) Participants 1.Pre-service teachers who are juniors or seniors with STEM majors 2.STEM professionals who are career changers (ATCP) Goals: 1. Increase the number of teachers qualified to teach mathematics and science K Develop communities of practice around teaching and research into the teaching of mathematics and science 3. Create a mentoring program to support induction, retention, and increased professionalism through research teams

Project participants according to programs. Project participants according to majors and/or degrees.

Program Model University Faculty School Faculty Noyce/PETE Scholar Research Team Action Research in the Real World Of Teaching and Learning

Program Activities Bi-monthly seminars: Teams meet twice a month for research seminars. Speakers present different research problems for discussion. Mentors meet weekly with teams to plan and implement research. Teams present work at MIE Research Expo and Professional Conferences. Teams submit papers to professional journals. Summer program participation in experimental teaching projects.

What happens in the seminars Research articles shared All mentors discuss their research experiences Groups plan out their research questions Conduct Literature Review Data Collection Data analysis and interpretation Develop paper and presentation Presentation of results Discussion focusing on implications for practice and future research Submission of research paper
