Investigating Culturally Responsive Science Teaching
September 10, 2026 4:30 pm - 6:00 pmAMNH are in the final year of a Track 4 project exploring culturally responsive teaching in Noyce graduates’ classrooms. In this workshop, we will present findings from a cross-case study of ten teacher case studies in varied settings (urban, rural, and suburban; north and south) and science content areas. Following the cross-case analysis procedure used for multiple case study analysis suggested by Stake (2006), we examined ten teacher case studies focused on descriptions of teachers’ enactments of their science teaching. These cases are designed to offer concrete images of culturally responsive science teaching that consider the community context of students and their lived experiences, along with case study teachers’ visions of culturally responsive and effective science teaching. This session will be highly interactive involving presentations of learning from the study, breakout room and whole group discussions. Discussions will be used to inform further explication of the themes and writing.
Using Evaluation to Inform, Sustain, and Improve your Noyce Project
November 30, 2022 2:00 pm - 3:30 pmThis session will assist Noyce PIs, project personnel, and evaluators to deepen the understanding of evaluation, and to leverage evaluation data and evaluation studies to show impact, document improvement, and build sustainability of their Noyce projects.
Designing Curriculum for Pre-Service Teachers & Teacher Leaders
February 1, 2022 3:30 pm - 5:00 pmIn this 90-minute webinar hosted by the American Association for the Advancement of Science ARISE Initiative, we heard how two Robert Noyce Teacher Scholarship Program projects and how they designed curriculum for pre-service teachers and teach leaders. First, Dr. Jeremy Zelkowski discussed his Noyce Track 3 curriculum design. Then Dr. Paige Evans and Jacqueline Ekeoba discussed the teachHoutson program and the incorporation of culturally responsive coursework.
Engaging Pre-Service Teachers in STEM Research
November 10, 2021 3:30 pm - 5:00 pmIn this 90-minute webinar hosted by the American Association for the Advancement of Science ARISE Initiative, we heard how two Robert Noyce Teacher Scholarship Program projects that engage pre-service teachers in STEM research during their undergraduate studies. First, Dr. Christine Cutucache discusses NoyceSCIENCE at the University of Nebraska at Omaha. Then Dr. Elisa Stone and Arash Jamshidi discuss the CalTeach program at the University of California Berkeley.
Teaching, The Best Kept Secret!
October 14, 2020 3:00 pm - 4:15 pmIn this workshop we dug into data many students and faculty find surprising about the teaching profession. We also shared strategies and resources for communicating the facts about the profession so that students have accurate information about their career prospects. In addition, strategies were shared that include how to talk to students about the profession, a listing of venues for reaching students, and recommendations for sharing the facts at your institution. All materials are professional quality, research-based, and have been extensively user-tested.
Culturally Relevant Pedagogy in the Preparation of Teachers to Work in High-Need School Districts
November 28, 2018 3:30 pm - 5:00 pmThis session delves into how to ensure teachers are equipped to enact culturally responsive classroom practices. Presenters will share evidence and best practices around 1) practice-based teacher preparation; 2) fostering and assessing critical science teaching agency; and 3) teacher leadership for promoting a growth mindset to support the development of underserved students. it is hoped that participants will seek to implement these active learning pedagogies in their practice and work as change agents at the forefront of STEM teacher education reform.
