ADDRESSING THE STEM TEACHER SHORTAGE THROUGH AN INCLUSIVE STEM TEACHER EDUCATION PIPELINE -THE INCLUSIVE STEM TEACHER EDUCATION PIPELINE (ISTEP) PROJECT AIMS TO SERVE THE NATIONAL NEED TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF HIGHLY QUALIFIED MIDDLE AND HIGH SCHOOL STEM TEACHERS, INCLUDING THOSE FROM DIVERSE BACKGROUNDS, IN HIGH-NEED SCHOOLS. THE SHORTAGE OF LICENSED STEM TEACHERS, PARTICULARLY TEACHERS REPRESENTING THE DEMOGRAPHIC BACKGROUNDS OF MOST STUDENTS IN HIGH-NEED SCHOOLS, IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM THAT AFFECTS SOUTHEASTERN MINNESOTA AS WELL AS THE NATION. SAINT MARY?S UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA WILL ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM BY RECRUITING MORE HIGH-ACHIEVING STUDENTS, INCLUDING THOSE FROM DIVERSE BACKGROUNDS, INTO ITS STEM+EDUCATION DUAL DEGREE PROGRAM AND MASTER OF ARTS IN TEACHING PROGRAM. THESE 24 PROSPECTIVE TEACHERS WILL BE PREPARED TO TEACH IN HIGH-NEED SCHOOLS IN A STATE WITH A GROWING STEM TEACHER SHORTAGE AND SIGNIFICANT RACIAL DISPARITY BETWEEN TEACHERS AND STUDENTS. IT IS ANTICIPATED THAT ISTEP SCHOLARS? PREPARATION AND MENTORSHIP IN STEM TEACHING WILL IMPROVE THEIR FUTURE SECONDARY STUDENTS? STEM ACHIEVEMENT AND READINESS FOR POST-SECONDARY LEARNING AND CAREERS IN STEM. THIS PROJECT AT SAINT MARY?S UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA IS IN PARTNERSHIP WITH WINONA AREA PUBLIC SCHOOL DISTRICT, A HIGH-NEED SCHOOL DISTRICT AND THE ROCHESTER STEM ACADEMY, WHICH SERVES STUDENTS FROM HIGH-NEED COMMUNITIES. OVER THE FIVE YEAR PROJECT, PROJECT GOALS WILL INCLUDE: (1) INCREASING THE NUMBER OF SECONDARY STEM TEACHERS FROM DIVERSE BACKGROUNDS COMMITTED TO TEACHING IN HIGH-NEED LOCAL EDUCATION AGENCIES (LEAS) IN SOUTHEASTERN MINNESOTA; (2) STRENGTHENING THE PIPELINE OF SECONDARY STEM TEACHERS FROM DIVERSE BACKGROUNDS COMMITTED TO TEACHING IN HIGH-NEED LEAS IN SOUTHEASTERN MINNESOTA BY INSTITUTIONALIZING THE KEY ISTEP PROJECT COMPONENTS OF RECRUITING, PREPARING, AND SUPPORTING RETENTION OF DIVERSE, HIGH-QUALITY SECONDARY STEM TEACHERS IN HIGH-NEED LEA SCHOOLS; AND (3) CONTRIBUTING TO THE KNOWLEDGE BASE RELATED TO RECRUITMENT, PREPARATION, AND RETENTION OF SECONDARY STEM TEACHERS FROM DIVERSE BACKGROUNDS. THE PROJECT'S 24 HIGH-ACHIEVING PROSPECTIVE TEACHERS (13 UNDERGRADUATES AND 11 AT THE MASTER?S DEGREE LEVEL) WILL EITHER (1) OBTAIN DUAL DEGREES, WITH ONE DEGREE BEING A BACCALAUREATE DEGREE IN BIOLOGY, CHEMISTRY, OR MATHEMATICS, AND THE OTHER IN SECONDARY EDUCATION (REFERRED TO AS STEM+EDUCATION); OR (2) WILL ALREADY POSSESS A BACCALAUREATE DEGREE IN A STEM DISCIPLINE AND WILL EARN A MASTER OF ARTS IN TEACHING (MAT). ISTEP SCHOLAR RECRUITMENT WILL INCLUDE A DIVERSE SET OF STRATEGIES FOR BOTH UNDERGRADUATES AND STEM PROFESSIONALS. SCHOLAR MENTORING WILL BE IMPLEMENTED WITHIN A COGNITIVE COACHING FRAMEWORK. AN EXTERNAL EVALUATOR WILL ASSIST THE ISTEP MANAGEMENT TEAM IN ADVANCING THE FRONTIERS OF KNOWLEDGE IN RECRUITMENT, PREPARATION, AND RETENTION OF SECONDARY STEM TEACHERS FROM DIVERSE BACKGROUNDS. IMPROVING THE QUALITY OF SCIENCE EDUCATION AT THE SECONDARY LEVEL BY PREPARING TEACHERS OF DIVERSE BACKGROUNDS LICENSED IN STEM FIELDS WILL ULTIMATELY CONTRIBUTE TO A DIVERSE, GLOBALLY COMPETITIVE STEM WORKFORCE. THIS TRACK 1: SCHOLARSHIPS AND STIPENDS PROJECT IS SUPPORTED THROUGH THE ROBERT NOYCE TEACHER SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM (NOYCE). THE NOYCE PROGRAM SUPPORTS TALENTED STEM UNDERGRADUATE MAJORS AND PROFESSIONALS TO BECOME EFFECTIVE K-12 STEM TEACHERS AND EXPERIENCED, EXEMPLARY K-12 TEACHERS TO BECOME STEM MASTER TEACHERS IN HIGH-NEED SCHOOL DISTRICTS. IT ALSO SUPPORTS RESEARCH ON THE EFFECTIVENESS AND RETENTION OF K-12 STEM TEACHERS IN HIGH-NEED SCHOOL DISTRICTS. THIS AWARD REFLECTS NSF'S STATUTORY MISSION AND HAS BEEN DEEMED WORTHY OF SUPPORT THROUGH EVALUATION USING THE FOUNDATION'S INTELLECTUAL MERIT AND BROADER IMPACTS REVIEW CRITERIA.

THIS PROJECT WILL ASSIST USFWS IN MEETING THEIR REQUIREMENT TO PRODUCE NATIONALLY STANDARD COMPLIANT NWI DATA FOR ALASKA. STANDARDS THAT GSS FOLLOWS INCLUDE THOSE DESCRIBED IN CLASSIFICATION OF WETLANDS AND DEEPWATER HABITATS OF THE U.S. (COWARDIN ET AL., 1979, REVISED 2013) AND FEDERAL WETLANDS MAPPING STANDARD (2009). FOR THE FIRST PHASE, GSS WILL IDENTIFY AND MAP WETLANDS USING THE MOST CURRENT DIGITAL IMAGERY AND ANCILLARY DATASETS PROVIDED OR IDENTIFIED BY THE USFWS (E.G., MAXAR MOSAIC, NOAA LAND COVER, IFSAR OR LIDAR). THE MAPPING WILL BE COMPLETED AT A RESOLUTION OF A ONE-ACRE TARGET MAP UNIT IN THE COASTAL AREA OF THE TOGIAK PENINSULA AND THE PRIBILOFF ISLANDS (FIGURE 1). ALL MAPPING WILL UNDERGO 100 INTERNAL QUALITY CONTROL AND WILL BE VALIDATED USING CUSTOMIZED NWI VERIFICATION TOOLS DEVELOPED BY USFWS. FOUR DATA ITERATIONS OF USFWS QUALITY CONTROL WILL BE COMPLETED FOR EACH MAPPING AREA. QC ITERATION SUBMISSIONS WILL OCCUR NO LESS THAN EIGHT WEEKS APART.DATA DEVELOPMENT WILL BE CONDUCTED OVER A 2- TO 5-YEAR TIMEFRAME. THIS FUNDING OPPORTUNITY WILL SUPPORT ACTIVITIES REQUIRED TO PRODUCE CUSTOMIZED, SPATIALLY-EXPLICIT DATASETS THAT IDENTIFY WETLAND FEATURES AND ESTABLISH THEIR CONNECTIVITY WITHIN A WATERSHED CONTEXT. GEOSPATIAL DATASETS WILL BE DEVELOPED AND ASSEMBLED ACCORDING TO NATIONAL WETLAND MAPPING AND CLASSIFICATION STANDARDS, AND REVIEWED ACCORDING TO NATIONAL MAPPING QUALITY ASSURANCE QUALITY CONTROL PROTOCOLS. SPATIALLY-EXPLICIT DATASETS WILL FOCUS ON CHARACTERIZING RIVER AND STREAM CHANNELS, OPEN WATERBODIES, AND WETLAND FEATURES CONSISTENT IN DETAIL TO THAT ESTABLISHED FOR FEATURE DELINEATION.

COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: EPIIC:INCREASING OUR INNOVATION SCORES: SYMBIOTIC COLLABORATION OF REGIONAL ECOSYSTEMS -THIS IS A COLLABORATIVE PROJECT ACROSS THE FOLLOWING INSTITUTIONS: SEATTLE UNIVERSITY, CAL POLY HUMBOLDT STATE UNIVERSITY, ST. FRANCIS UNIVERSITY, ST. MARY?S UNIVERSITY, AND UTAH TECH UNIVERSITY. THE EPIIC AWARD IS TO ESTABLISH AN INNOVATION ECOSYSTEM IN A COHORT-BASED MODEL SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED FOR PRIMARILY UNDERGRADUATE INSTITUTIONS (PUIS). THE COHORT COMPRISES A DIVERSE RANGE OF INSTITUTIONS WITH VARYING DEMOGRAPHICS, SIZES, MISSIONS, AND LOCATIONS. THE PRIMARY GOALS OF THIS PROJECT ARE TWOFOLD: (1) TO DEVELOP INNOVATION CAPACITY WITHIN THE COHORT INSTITUTIONS AND (2) TO COLLECTIVELY ESTABLISH BEST PRACTICES AND FOSTER A COMMUNITY OF INNOVATION FOR PUIS. THIS REGIONAL ECOSYSTEM ENCOMPASSES SEVERAL RURAL INSTITUTIONS, MANY OF WHICH CATER TO LOW-INCOME AND FIRST-GENERATION STUDENTS, WHILE OTHERS HAVE A SIGNIFICANT REPRESENTATION OF HISTORICALLY UNDERREPRESENTED STUDENTS IN STEM FIELDS. THE COHORT IS DEEPLY COMMITTED TO IMPLEMENTING INSTITUTIONAL CHANGES THAT EXPAND ACCESS TO CAREER OPPORTUNITIES REQUIRING ADVANCED SKILLS IN THEIR RESPECTIVE REGIONS. THE OVERARCHING AIM IS TO CULTIVATE A MUTUALLY BENEFICIAL RELATIONSHIP AMONG THE COHORT MEMBERS, EMPOWERING EACH INSTITUTION TO PLAY AN EXPANDED ROLE WITHIN THE REGIONAL ECONOMY. THE AWARD'S PURPOSE IS TO ESTABLISH A SYMBIOTIC COLLABORATION FOR REGIONAL ECOSYSTEM (SCORE) COHORT, WHICH INTRODUCES AN INNOVATIVE APPROACH TO ENHANCING STEM INNOVATION CAPACITY. THIS APPROACH STEMS FROM THE COHORT'S UNDERGRADUATE-FOCUSED MISSION AND ITS STRONG EMPHASIS ON STUDENTS AND THE COMMUNITIES THEY SERVE. THE PROPOSED PROJECT ENVISIONS A COMMUNITY-BASED APPROACH, FOSTERING THE DEVELOPMENT OF BEST PRACTICES IN VARIOUS ASPECTS OF INNOVATION AND PARTNERSHIPS, INCLUDING WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT, EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING, RESEARCH AND INNOVATION, INDUSTRY PARTNERSHIPS, INVESTORS, ENTREPRENEURSHIP, AND REGULATORY ISSUES. OPERATING AS A COMMUNITY OF PRACTICE, THE COHORT OF PRIMARILY UNDERGRADUATE INSTITUTIONS WILL COLLABORATE, LEARN, AND GROW TOGETHER WHILE UPHOLDING THE VALUES OF INCLUSIVE EXCELLENCE AS A CENTRAL ASPECT OF THE PROJECT. THE GREATEST COLLECTIVE IMPACT THE COHORT WILL HAVE WILL COME FROM THE INCREASED CAPACITY TO SERVE THE REGIONS? ECONOMIC AND COMMUNITY NEEDS AND TO EXPAND INSTITUTIONAL CAPACITY TO PROVIDE ACCESS FOR STUDENTS INTO AN ADVANCED, QUICKLY EVOLVING STEM WORKFORCE. A BROADER IMPACT OF THIS COHORT-BASED LEARNING COMMUNITY FOR INNOVATION WILL RESULT IN INFRASTRUCTURE FOR INNOVATION CAPACITY, CONTINUED COLLABORATIONS, ENHANCING INNOVATION CAPACITY FOR THE STEM WORKFORCE, AND DEVELOPING MODELS AND BEST PRACTICES FOR PUIS NATIONWIDE. THIS AWARD REFLECTS NSF'S STATUTORY MISSION AND HAS BEEN DEEMED WORTHY OF SUPPORT THROUGH EVALUATION USING THE FOUNDATION'S INTELLECTUAL MERIT AND BROADER IMPACTS REVIEW CRITERIA.- SUBAWARDS ARE NOT PLANNED FOR THIS AWARD.

THIS PROJECT WILL DEVELOP A PROCESS FOR SELECTING LOCATIONS SUITABLE FOR NATURE-BASED STORMWATER MANAGEMENT IN URBAN AREAS NEAR THE KENAI RIVER. IT WILL HIGHLIGHT GREEN INFRASTRUCTURE DESIGN ELEMENTS AND QUANTIFY THE EXPECTED OUTCOMES OF STORMWATER INTERCEPTION FOR SEDIMENT, ROAD SALT, HEAVY METALS AND PETROLEUM PRODUCTS. EDUCATIONAL SIGNAGE, SCHOOL CURRICULUM AND COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT TOOLS WILL BE DEVELOPED IN ORDER TO INFORM LOCAL STAKEHOLDERS AND PROMOTE TECHNIQUES THAT CAN BE EMPLOYED.THE PRIMARY GOAL OF THIS PROJECT IS TO PROTECT WATER QUALITY AND PROMOTE HEALTHY FISH POPULATIONS. ALTHOUGH URBAN GROWTH IN KENAI AND SOLDOTNA IS ADVANTAGEOUS FOR THE LOCAL ECONOMY, TRANSITION FROM VEGETATED LANDSCAPES TO IMPERVIOUS COVER CAN INCREASE STORMWATER RUNOFF. THIS IN TURN CAN INCREASE THE VOLUME OF WATER AND QUANTITY OF WATER QUALITY CONSTITUENTS (SEDIMENT, HEAVY METALS LIKE COPPER AND ZINC, NUTRIENTS, SALT) THAT ARE DELIVERED TO RECEIVING SURFACE WATER BODIES. THIS IS ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT IN URBANIZING LOCATIONS NEAR THE KENAI RIVER, KNOWN NATIONALLY FOR ITS RECREATIONAL AND SUBSISTENCE SALMON FISHING. THIS PROJECT AIMS TO REDUCE IMPACTS OF STORMWATER RUNOFF ON RECEIVING WATER BODIES. A GOAL OF THIS PROJECT IS ALSO TO ENGAGE COMMUNITY MEMBERS ABOUT STORMWATER RUNOFF MANAGEMENT. THIS PROJECT CREATES A COMMUNICATIONS PIECE FOR NATURE-BASED STORMWATER RUNOFF PRACTICES TO ILLUSTRATE PRACTICE LOCATIONS AND BENEFITS, IN TERMS OF WATER QUALITY AND IMPACTS TO FISH.
