This two tiered northern Florida junior/senior high school program matches 10 leader mathematics teachers with 20 minimally prepared mathematics teachers, (on a one-to-two basis) in order to strengthen/broaden the mathematical background and to improve the teaching skills of all the teachers. The workshops, in the summers of l987 and l988, will consist of two intense five-week programs running concurrently and separately, but overlapping in a seminar meeting three times per week for all teachers and four faculty members. During the academic year there will be visits to the teachers' classes and two mini-conferences. The courses (tailored to the mathematical experiences of the teachers) will use the problem solving approach and include computer/information sciences. The underprepared teachers will focus on algebra, geometry, measurement, and probability. Other topics will include logic, linear programming, game theory, calculus (upon request), and teaching strategies. Moreover, the leader teachers will develop mentor skills. The University of Florida is awarding 7 credits for these courses. The teachers will come from Central Crown school districts in northern Florida. There is significant cost sharing from the Florida Department of Education and the University of Florida.

这一两级的佛罗里达北部初中/高中课程将10名顶尖数学教师与20名受过最低程度数学培训的教师相匹配(以一比二的方式)，以加强/拓宽数学背景，并提高所有教师的教学技能。研讨会在1987年和1988年的夏天，将由两个同时和单独进行的为期五周的高强度课程组成，但重叠在所有教师和四名教职员工每周三次的研讨会上。在学年期间，将有教师班级的访问和两个小型会议。这些课程(根据教师的数学经验量身定做)将使用问题解决方法，并包括计算机/信息科学。准备不足的老师将专注于代数、几何、测量和概率。其他主题包括逻辑、线性规划、博弈论、微积分(按要求)和教学策略。此外，领导教师还将发展指导技能。佛罗里达大学为这些课程授予7个学分。教师将来自佛罗里达州北部的中央皇冠学区。佛罗里达州教育部和佛罗里达大学分担了相当多的费用。
