Ten institutions which service the Los Angeles Area have come together to form the Los Angeles Collaborative for Teacher Excellence (LACTE). The institutions consist of five universities/colleges (California State University, Dominguez Hills; California State University, Los Angeles; California State University, Fullerton; Loyola Marymount University; Occidental College) paired with their feeder community colleges (El Camino; East Los Angeles; Fullerton; Santa Monica; Glendale Community Colleges). In Los Angeles County there are 1.5 million K-12 students (74% are members of minority groups) and 60,000 teachers (30% are members of minority groups). The Collaborative is making a strong effort to prepare greater numbers of qualified mathematics and science teachers and to recruit a greater number from underrepresented groups. It is also designed to strengthen the mathematics and science backgrounds of the future elementary teacher. In the first year of the project a thorough recruitment campaign will be conducted to identify 100 prospective secondary teachers and 100 pre-elementary teachers to become part of a network which will meet on a regular basis. Also involved in the network will be science, mathematics, engineering and education faculty along with master teachers. Jointly the five institutions will prepare and conduct professional development workshops for mathematics and science faculty. These workshops will feature innovative, integrated mathematics and science courses, based on courses currently being piloted across the nation. The Collaborative will develop and revise ten courses for pre-service teachers and implement the courses in the ten institutions. The goals of the Collaborative are: 1) To increase the number of mathematics/science majors from underrepresented groups who are planning on teaching as a career. 2) Refine the present course of study at each institution to reflect the necessary integration of mathematics, science and technology in the pre-service content preparation of undergraduate students. 3) Develop an experiential component for future elementary mathematics/science specialists and secondary science and mathematics teachers. 4) Establish a support network for the prospective teachers.

服务于洛杉矶地区的十所机构联合起来，组成了洛杉矶卓越教师合作组织 （LACTE）. 的 机构 组成 的 五所大学/学院（加州州立大学，多明格斯山;加州州立大学，洛杉矶;加州州立大学，富勒顿;洛约拉玛丽蒙特大学;西方学院）与其支线社区学院（埃尔卡米诺;东洛杉矶;富勒顿;圣莫尼卡;格伦代尔社区学院）配对。 在洛杉矶县，有150万K-12学生（74%是少数民族成员）和6万名教师（30%是少数民族成员）。 该协作机构正在大力培养更多的合格数学和科学教师，并从代表性不足的群体中招聘更多的教师。 它还旨在加强未来小学教师的数学和科学背景。 在该项目的第一年，将开展全面的招聘活动，以确定100名未来的中学教师和100名学前教师，成为定期开会的网络的一部分。 参与该网络的还有科学、数学、工程和教育学院以及硕士教师沿着。 这五个机构将共同为数学和科学教师筹备和举办专业发展讲习班。 这些讲习班将以目前在全国试点的课程为基础，开设创新的综合数学和科学课程。 该协作组织将为职前教师开发和修改十门课程，并在十所机构实施这些课程。 合作的目标是：1）增加数学/科学专业的人数从代表性不足的群体谁是计划在教学作为一种职业。 2)改进每个机构目前的学习课程，以反映本科生任职前内容准备中数学、科学和技术的必要整合。3)为未来的小学数学/科学专家和中学科学和数学教师开发经验成分。4)为未来的教师建立一个支持网络。
