The demand for teachers is most pronounced in urban > and rural areas and within specific disciplines and grade levels of > mathematics and science. A survey of urban school districts conducted by the > Council of the Great City Schools and Recruiting New Teachers, Inc., in > 1998-99, indicated that 95% of responding urban school districts had an > immediate demand for high school science and mathematics teachers. > > To respond to these needs, the National Science Foundation is currently > accepting proposals for the Science, Technology, Engineering, and > Mathematics Teacher Preparation (STEMTP) program which supports the > development, dissemination, and institutionalization of exemplary science and > mathematics preK-12 teacher education models that produce effective teachers > who have the skills, confidence, and commitment to enable all students to > attain high standards of achievement in mathematics, science, engineering, > and technology. The goals of the program are: 1. To increase significantly > the number of preK-12 teachers who are certified and well-qualified to teach > mathematics and science, and, 2. To improve the quality of preservice > education, induction, and continued professional growth in mathematics and > science for preK-12 teachers. Projects may address elementary, middle > school, or high school levels; and the program seeks to expand the pool of > potential teachers by targeting non-traditional sources of teachers.
