Furthering the Impact of COMPASS: A National Secondary Mathematics Implementation Project

0001377 ROBINSON伊萨卡学院的这个实施中心维持并扩展了COMPASS的工作，这是一个中学实施计划，重点关注在NSF支持下开发的五个综合中学数学课程计划。 这项工作是在资助#9619168下开始的。 COMPASS结构包括一个中心站点和五个卫星站点，每个站点用于一个课程计划。 中心站点的主要职能是向各赞助者通报这些创新课程，在课程选择和实施的第一个一般阶段为学区提供援助，并协调对卫星站点提供更多信息和援助的请求。 卫星站点的主要目标是向各选区提供具体课程方案的信息，并协助学区制定具体方案的执行战略，包括专业发展。 这项工作涉及与学校，地区，区域或州一级的政策制定者以及家长，企业和社区领导人，高等教育界和其他人合作。 作为这项工作的一个组成部分，COMPASS每年为中学决策者主办一次全国会议，重点是课程的认识、选择和执行。

0001377ROBINSONThis Implementation Center at Ithaca College sustains and expands the work of COMPASS, a secondary school implementation program that focuses on the five comprehensive secondary school mathematics curriculum programs developed with support from NSF. This work began under grant #9619168. The COMPASS structure incorporates a Central Site together with five Satellite Sites, one for each curriculum program. The primary functions of the Central Site are to inform various constituencies about these innovative curricula, aid school districts in the first general phases of curriculum selection and implementation, and coordinate requests for additional information and assistance from the Satellite Sites. The primary goals of the Satellite Sites are to provide curriculum program-specific information to various constituencies and to assist school districts with program-specific implementation strategies including professional development. This effort involves working with policy makers at the school, district, regional or state level as well as with parents, businesses and community leaders, the higher education community, and others. As one component of this work, COMPASS hosts an annual national conference for secondary school decision-makers focusing on curriculum awareness, selection and implementation.
