Title II News You Can Use is a series of issue briefs on key data collected through the Title II HEA data collection.  \nThis issue brief provides information on the characteristics of Teacher Quality Partnership grants.  \nTeacher Quality Partnership Grants  \nThe Teacher Quality Partnership (TQP) grant program is a competitive grant program available to partnerships of institutions of higher education (IHEs) and high-needs school districts. Authorized under the Higher Education Opportunity Act of 2008, the program is intended to increase student achievement by:  \n1 improving the quality of prospective and new teachers by improving teacher preparation and professional development activities for new teachers;  \n2 holding teacher preparation programs accountable for preparing highly qualified teachers; and  \n3 recruiting highly qualified individuals—including minorities and individuals from other occupations—into the teaching profession.  \nTeacher Quality Partnership  \ngrants intend to increase student achievement by improving the quality of teacher preparation.  \nNumber of Teacher Quality Partnership Grants by State  \n\n| State | FY 2009 | FY 2010 | FY 2014 | Total |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Arizona | 1 | 0 | 1 | 2 |\n| California | 5 | 1 | 7 | 13 |\n| Colorado | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 |\n| Delaware | 0 | 0 | 1 | 1 |\n| Georgia | 2 | 0 | 1 | 3 |\n| Iowa | 0 | 1 | 0 | 1 |\n| Illinois | 3 | 2 | 2 | 7 |\n| Indiana | 1 | 0 | 0 | 1 |\n| Kansas | 2 | 0 | 0 | 2 |\n| Kentucky | 1 | 0 | 0 | 1 |\n| Louisiana | 1 | 0 | 0 | 1 |\n| Massachusetts | 0 | 1 | 1 | 2 |\n| Missouri | 1 | 0 | 0 | 1 |\n| North Carolina | 1 | 1 | 1 | 3 |\n| New Jersey | 2 | 0 | 2 | 4 |\n| New Mexico | 0 | 1 | 0 | 1 |\n| New York | 3 | 1 | 3 | 7 |\n| Ohio | 1 | 0 | 0 | 1 |\n| Pennsylvania | 0 | 0 | 1 | 1 |\n| South Carolina | 1 | 0 | 0 | 1 |\n| South Dakota | 1 | 0 | 0 | 1 |\n| Tennessee | 0 | 0 | 1 | 1 |\n| Texas | 1 | 1 | 0 | 2 |\n| Virginia | 1 | 1 | 1 | 3 |\n| Washington | 0 | 1 | 0 | 1 |\n| TOTAL | 28 | 12 | 24 | 64 |\n\nIn 2009, the U.S. Department of Education awarded 28 TQP grants, followed by 12 additional grants in 2010 and 24 additional grants in 2014. While grant recipients are located across the country, California has received the most grants, followed by Illinois and New York.  \n2014 TQP grants primarily focus on STEM education  \nIn his 2011 State of the Union address, President Obama set a goal of preparing 100,000 science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) teachers over the next decade. Representative of that goal, FY 2014’s TQP competition focused on STEM teachers and increasing the participation of women, minorities, and people with disabilities in teaching STEM subjects. Of the 24 grantees in FY 2014, 23 indicated in their application that their partnership aimed to prepare teachers to teach subjects in STEM (Competitive Priority 1, CP1), and these partnerships will be used to prepare more than 11,000 teachers primarily in STEM (U.S. Department of Education, 2014) .  \nOne example of the partnerships designed to prepare STEM teachers is the Temple Teacher Residency (TTR), a partnership between Temple University, the School District of Philadelphia, and the American Paradigm of Charters. The TTR program, which mimics the model of a medical residency, is  \na new dual-degree program focused on STEM and allows teacher candidates who earn a bachelor’s degree in a STEM field to also earn a master’s degree in middle-grades education after completing a year in residency in either a Philadelphia public or charter school (Burton, 2014) .  \nIn addition to focusing on preparing STEM teachers, 19 of the grantees indicated that they would use their partnershi","cbCailvGKesgwSHO","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCailvGKesgwSHO","pdf",336933,"English","# Teacher Quality Partnership Grants\n## Program purpose and requirements\n## Number of grants by state (FY 2009, FY 2010, FY 2014)\n## STEM-focused FY 2014 grants and competitive priorities\n## Example partnership: Temple Teacher Residency (TTR)\n## Grant amounts and program impact","[{\"question\":\"What is the Teacher Quality Partnership (TQP) grant program intended to do?\",\"answer\":\"TQP grants are intended to increase student achievement by improving prospective and new teachers’ preparation and professional development, holding teacher preparation programs accountable, and recruiting qualified individuals into teaching.\"},{\"question\":\"How are TQP grants distributed across states in the data provided?\",\"answer\":\"The brief reports counts by state for FY 2009, FY 2010, and FY 2014, with a total of 64 grants across those years.
