MERIT (Mathematics Enrichment and Retraining for Inservice Teachers)

功绩计划是一项为期三年的努力，旨在提高中学教师在内容和教学方法方面的数学知识。该项目的目标是由2至4名准备不足的教师和1名师傅/导师组成的教师团队。参赛队将参加为期四周的暑期学院、实质性的学年后续活动和第二个暑期学院。第一批教师将于1991年夏天开始，第二批教师将于1992年夏天开始。该计划将包括数学内容、教学策略和领导力培训。MERFIT是CSU-Domquiez Hills、洛杉矶联合学区和成就委员会共同努力的成果。费用分摊由CSU-Dominguez Hills、洛杉矶联合学区、成就委员会和参与学校提供，作为NSF奖励的20%。

Project MERIT is a three year effort to enhance middle school teachers' knowledge of mathematics in content and pedagogy. The project targets teams of teachers consisting of two to four underprepared teachers and a master/mentor teacher. Teams will participate in a four week-summer institute, substantial academic year followup, and a second summer institute. A first cohort of teachers will begin in the summer of 1991, and a second cohort in the summer of 1992. The program will include mathematics content, instructional strategies, and leadership training. MERIT is a cooperative effort of CSU-Dominquez Hills, the Los Angeles Unified school district, and The Achievement Council. Cost sharing is provided by CSU-Dominguez Hills, the Los Angeles Unified School District, the Achievement Council, and participating schools, as 20% of the NSF award.
