9630116 Robert P. Moses The Algebra Project (AP) is a middle school project designed to significantly increase the proportion of students who complete algebra successfully in late middle school or high school, and who enter college preparatory mathematics studies. This NSF project will engage approximately 500 grade 5-8 teachers over a four year period in 3 rural sites in the Delta area of Mississippi, Jackson, MS, Cambridge, MA, and New York, NY. Teachers will participate in a minimum of 128 hours of enhancement starting with a 2-week summer workshop in the AP materials and pedagogy. These inquiry-based materials are designed as a supplement to other standards-based middle school curricula. Over the next two school years, teachers will participate in 34 hours per year of follow-up workshops and mentoring from AP trainers in their own classroom. The teacher development activities will be guided by a Site Professional Development Team, which includes a mathematician/mathematics educator, AP trainers, and site teachers. The AP activity at each site includes community development work to deepen community commitment to mathematics education reform for underrepresented students in the mathematics and science career education path. The project will also begin to document and research the effects of community development work. The project is funded at 4-year project is funded by NSF at $2,503,748 with auditable cost-sharing of $1,739,699. This project is connected to a $12,000,000 award from the Open Society Institute of the Soros Foundations.

9630116罗伯特·P·摩西代数项目(AP)是一项中学项目，旨在显著提高在初中后期或高中成功完成代数学业并进入大学预科数学学习的学生比例。这个NSF项目将在四年内在密西西比州密西西比州杰克逊市三角洲地区、马萨诸塞州坎布里奇市和纽约州纽约的3个农村地区雇用大约500名5-8年级教师。教师将参加至少128个小时的强化课程，从为期两周的AP材料和教学法暑期研讨会开始。这些探究式教材是对其他基于标准的中学课程的补充。在接下来的两个学年，教师将参加每年34小时的后续研讨会，并在自己的课堂上接受AP培训师的指导。教师发展活动将由SITE专业发展小组指导，该小组包括一名数学家/数学教育家、AP培训员和SITE教师。每个地点的AP活动包括社区发展工作，以深化社区对数学和科学职业教育途径中代表性不足学生的数学教育改革的承诺。该项目还将开始记录和研究社区发展工作的影响。该项目由国家科学基金会资助，为期4年，资助金额为2,503,748美元，可审计费用分摊为1,739,699美元。该项目与索罗斯基金会开放社会研究所颁发的1200万美元奖金有关。
