URI’s Noyce Teacher Scholarship Program: Recruitment Efforts Year 1
Synopsis
URI’s Robert Noyce Teacher Scholarship Program seeks to increase the overall number, diversity, and percentage of our teacher education candidates with STEM backgrounds. We actively recruited undergraduate STEM majors and STEM professionals who might otherwise not have considered a career in K-12 teaching and will be supporting them through their induction years. A range of recruitment strategies were used. Results of our recruitment efforts will be shared.
