Unfortunately\, the teacher pipeline shows worrisome signs about the supply of new teachers entering the workforce. At the same time\, scho ols have increased demands for STEM instruction\, resulting in acute staff ing challenges in these fields. The Robert Noyce Teacher Scholarship Progr am\, founded in 2002\, is a federally funded initiative designed to improv e both the quantity and quality of STEM instructors\, particularly in high -need school districts.\n\nOn February 23\, the Brown Center on Education Policy at Brookings will host a discussion on the state of the K-12 STEM t eacher workforce and efforts to support the pipeline through the Robert No yce Program. Professor Li Feng of Texas State University and principal inv estigator of a multi-year research project will present key findings from a new summary report on the Noyce program\, examining its impact.\n\nThis event will be open to attend in person or watch online.
