Stem Teacher Talent
Coalition
The Coalition consists of science, technology, engineering, mathematics and computer science stakeholders from K-12, higher education, government, and out-of-school time (OST)/community organizations. We will conduct yearlong stakeholder convenings to develop a range of regional cross-sector partnerships and initiatives to address STEM teacher-specific challenges.
USTRIVE
Led by a team of researchers and practitioners affiliated with the Philadelphia Regional Institute for STEM Educators, the USTRIVE project seeks to foster STEM knowledge and literacy with close to 3,000 students in grades 7–12 through the use of a socio-transformative constructivism framework using a socio-scientific issues approach.

Through the Noyce Scholarship Program, the PRISE partners have been able to recruit and support over 300 STEM teachers in the Philadelphia area. Our goal is to develop a model of early career teacher support using regional resources that will retain and sustain new STEM teachers.
