Administrators Working for Change: Materials to Support Administrators' Learning About Mathematics Education Reform

小行星9731242纳尔逊 致力于变革的管理员项目是K-8数学领域的专业发展项目。 教育发展中心（EDC）与惠洛克学院、莱斯利学院、波士顿公立学校、大波士顿教育合作组织和国家实地测试点合作，将开发、试点、实地测试、出版和传播教学材料和辅导员指南，以支持学校和地区管理者学习数学教育改革中的问题。 该项目旨在让520名K-8管理人员参与，并将开设两门42小时的研究生课程，题为：实施新数学课程的行政问题和初等数学教师监督。 该项目计划与全国数学教师理事会、全国数学督导员理事会以及督导和课程编制协会建立联系。 这些课程是专为大学为基础的主要认证课程或作为高级课程的实践管理人员。 课程模块供学区或区域服务提供商使用。 该项目的一个独特之处在于，它侧重于为学校和地区管理人员提供知识和工具，以支持教师实施基于改革的数学举措，并帮助社区理解和支持数学教育改革。

9731242 Nelson The Administrators Working for Change Project is a professional development project in the area of K-8 mathematics. The Education Development Center (EDC) working in collaboration with Wheelock College, Lesley College, the Boston Public Schools, and the Educational Collaborative for Greater Boston and national field test sites, will develop, pilot, field test, publish, and disseminate instructional materials and facilitator's guides to support school and district administrators' learning about issues in mathematics education reform. The project seeks to involve 520 K-8 administrators and will create two 42-hour graduate courses entitled: Administrative Issues in Implementing New Mathematics Curricula and Teacher Supervision in Elementary Mathematics. The project has plans to link with the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM), the National Council of Supervisors of Mathematics (NCSM) and the Association for Supervision and Curriculum Development (ASCD). The courses are designed for university-based principal certification programs or as advanced courses for practicing administrators. Course modules are for use by school districts or regional service providers. A unique feature of this project is its focus on providing school and district administrators with the knowledge and tools to support teachers implementing reform-based mathematics initiatives and in helping communities to understand and support mathematics education reform.
