Integrating Mathematics Programs and Computer Technology (The IMPACT Project)

该领导活动项目将提供增强和 专业发展经验为30蒙大拿数学 教师，7-12年级，谁将被选中的基础上，地理 分布和领导能力成为区域数学 教师和目前在全国各地的研讨会。 IMPACT项目的主要目标是制定一个领导力计划， 数学教师（7-12），这将导致一个全面的 为这些年级的数学教师提供全州范围的在职培训。 两个为期两年的暑期研究所，以数学内容和使用 将计算机作为数学课程的常规组成部分， 进行。 一套精心挑选的电脑软件 特别与7-12中常见的主题相关 数学课程将被评估和组织课堂 使用. 将培训30名教师，增加30名新教师 第二年 这些合格的领导者有可能影响 在五年期间有5000-8000名讲习班参与者， 覆盖全国大部分地区。 这个项目将提供一个机会 为教师谁预计教所有7-12数学学习 在初中和高中阶段都要了解和使用软件。 它的参与面很广，包括私营部门， 公共教育办公室，当地学校，州立大学 系统和专业组织。

This Leadership Activities project will provide enhancement and professional development experiences for 30 Montana mathematics teachers, grades 7-12, who will be selected on the basis of geographic distribution and leadership ability to become regional mathematics teachers and present workshops throughout the state. The IMPACT project's main goal is to develop a leadership program for mathematics teachers (7-12) that will result in a comprehensive statewide in-service program for mathematics teachers in these grades. Two two-year summer institutes featuring mathematics content and the use of computers as a regular component of the mathematics curriculum will be conducted. A carefully selected set of computer software specifically related to those topics ordinarily found in the 7-12 mathematics curriculum will be evaluated and organized for classroom use. Thirty teachers will be trained and 30 new teachers will be added the second year. These qualified leaders have the potential to impact 5000-8000 workshop participants over a five year period, thereby covering most of the state. This program will provide an opportunity for teachers who are expected to teach all 7-12 mathematics to learn about and use software at both the junior and senior high school levels. It has a wide cross-section of involvement including the private sector, the Office of Public Instruction, local schools, the State University system, and professional organizations.
