The goal of this project is the improvement of science and mathematics teaching in the New York City area through the establishment of a Center for Science and Mathematics Education. The Center, established at City College, will coordinate the specific project activities aimed at accomplishing its goal. These activities include: 1) leadership training workshops for principals and science administrators in order to train, motivate, and support their teachers, 2) in-service science and mathematics courses for elementary and secondary teachers to increase their content background and enhance their pedagogical skills, and 3) conferences for educators on topics in science and mathematics education to provide participants up-to-date information on specialized topics and to provide practical support for their teaching efforts. A bimonthly Newsletter, funded by local sources, will be published to provide a teaching information exchange. There will be two, two-day Leadership Training workshops held in the fall of each year, one for elementary principals and science administrators, and one for junior high principals and science administrators. Follow-up workshops will be held in the spring. Twelve courses will be offered in pairs, one course being content-oriented and the second emphasizing the educational applications of that content at the appropriate grade level. Two pairs of courses are offered for elementary teachers, one for either elementary or junior high, two for junior high, and one for high school teachers. The topics covered are physical science, computer programming and applications, and mathematics. One hundred and eighty teachers will be able to take advantage of these courses which will be offered during the academic year and during the summer. The conferences will be held in the fall and spring of each school year.

这个项目的目标是提高科学和数学 通过建立一个中心，在纽约市地区进行教学 科学和数学教育。 该中心，建立在城市 学院，将协调具体的项目活动，旨在 实现其目标。 这些活动包括：1）领导 为校长和科学管理人员举办培训讲习班， 培训，激励和支持他们的教师，2）在职科学和 中小学教师数学课程增加 他们的内容背景和提高他们的教学技能，以及3） 科学和数学教育专题教育工作者会议 向与会者提供关于专门专题的最新信息， 为他们的教学工作提供实际支持。 双月 将出版由当地来源资助的通讯， 教学信息交流 将有两个，为期两天的领导力培训讲习班在 每年秋季，一个小学校长和科学 行政人员，一个是初中校长和科学 管理员。 后续讲习班将在春季举行。 十二 课程将成对提供，一门课程以内容为导向， 第二，强调这些内容的教育应用， 适当的等级。提供两对课程， 小学教师，一个小学或初中，两个 一个是初中的，一个是高中老师的。 涵盖的主题包括 物理科学，计算机编程和应用，以及 数学 180名教师将能够 这些课程将在学术期间提供的优势 年和夏天。 会议将于秋季举行 每个学年的春天。
