This project leverages several K-12 outreach programs at the University of Washington to help increase the subject-matter understanding of precollege mathematics teachers and their students while increasing the Fellows' understanding of teaching and learning. The College of Arts and Sciences, as home of the departments that teach mathematics and the sciences, has a long history of preservice and inservice teacher preparation. The proposal seeks to place 12 graduate students (recruited university wide) as GK-12 Fellows in local elementary and junior high mathematics classes. The project will involve a coordinated program of selection, initial preparation, in-depth preparation, on-going mentoring and assessment. Feasibility has been demonstrated by a two-year pilot project supported by the UW President's Fund and NSF. Fellows will receive initial preparation in instructional methods of inquiry based mathematics by Lillian McDermott and the Physics Education group followed by Developing Mathematical Ideas session to analyze student thinking given by the Expanding a Community of Mathematics Learners local systemic change project. This GK-12 projects extends partnerships with local school districts already involved in systemic change efforts and strengthens on-going attempts to help teachers implement curricula that meet state and national standards.

该项目利用华盛顿大学的几个K-12外展项目，帮助提高大学预科数学教师和学生对学科的理解，同时提高研究员对教与学的理解。文理学院作为教授数学和科学的院系所在地，在职前和在职教师培训方面有着悠久的历史。该提案旨在将12名研究生（在大学范围内招募）作为GK-12研究员安置在当地小学和初中数学班。该项目将包括一个协调的方案，包括选择、初步准备、深入准备、持续指导和评估。可行性已由华盛顿大学校长基金和美国国家科学基金会支持的一个为期两年的试点项目证明。研究员将接受Lillian McDermott和物理教育小组提供的基于探究的数学教学方法的初步准备，随后是发展数学思想会议，以分析扩展数学学习者社区当地系统变化项目提供的学生思维。这个GK-12项目扩展了与当地学区的合作关系，这些学区已经参与了系统性变革的努力，并加强了正在进行的努力，帮助教师实施符合州和国家标准的课程。
