The main goal of the project is to have outstanding teachers lead seminars in a program designed to upgrade the mathematics competence of less prepared teachers. There are to be two seven-week workshops with 25 participants; each workshop will be lead by a master teacher with significant expertise in the topic of the seminar which they lead. The plan is to use these seven master secondary school teachers as the main instructional staff of the workshop. Each week a major topic in secondary school mathematics is addressed by one of the master teachers. Some curriculum materials are also prepared for use in the participants' classes. Current topics are discussed, such as problem solving activities, probability, statistics and data interpretation, use of computers in the mathematics classroom, and geometry. Also, the master teachers devote time demonstrating and discussing effective instructional techniques and classroom organization. The follow-up activities include classroom observations, interviews with participants, supervisors and students. The dissemination activities include distribution of curriculum materials developed at the workshop, a newsletter containing reports of classroom use of materials and methods in their classes, and possible use of participants as mentors in future workshops.

该项目的主要目标是让优秀的教师主持研讨会，旨在提高准备不足的教师的数学能力。将举办两场为期 7 周的研讨会，参加人数为 25 人；每个研讨会将由一位在其所主持的研讨会主题方面拥有丰富专业知识的名师主持。计划以这7名中学名师为研修班的主要教学人员。每周，一位特级教师都会讨论中学数学的一个主要话题。 还准备了一些课程材料供参与者的课堂使用。讨论当前的主题，例如问题解决活动、概率、统计和数据解释、计算机在数学课堂中的使用以及几何。此外，名师们还花时间展示和讨论有效的教学技巧和课堂组织。后续活动包括课堂观察、参与者、导师和学生访谈。传播活动包括分发研讨会上开发的课程材料、包含课堂使用材料和方法的报告的时事通讯，以及可能在未来的研讨会中使用参与者作为导师。
