\"LogoVertical\"<\/a>The Joy and Justice in Mathematics Teaching and Learning (J-Squared) Project (2023-2028) is a collaboration of the Wheelock College of Education and Human Development and the College of Arts and Sciences at Boston University and school districts in the Boston area. This program focuses on preparing teachers to facilitate meaningful mathematical discourse in the classroom while simultaneously increasing students\u2019 critical consciousness of issues of racism and other social injustices. J-Squared scholars experience a rich, hands-on, inquiry-based teacher preparation program and work closely with teachers, mathematics educators, mathematicians, and students.<\/p>\n

The J-Squared Project provides 100% tuition scholarships to 31 individuals with backgrounds either in mathematics or related STEM fields to a one-year Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT) degree program. The degree program leads to licensure to teach secondary mathematics. Once teaching, J-Squared scholars will be supported through summer and academic-year workshops, seminars, and mentoring. Scholars become a part of a rich community of mathematics teachers, BU Noyce alumni, teacher educators, and mathematicians. Our program allows you to enrich your mathematics lessons with design, creativity, and innovation!\u00a0 Read about some of our Noyce scholars!<\/a><\/p>\n
