Submitted under the guidelines for Teacher Retention and Renewal, this 49-month project is "designed to develop a cadre of teachers, leaders, supervisors and collegiate mathematics educators who will act as change agents responsible for implementing standards-based high school mathematics reform" [project summary]. More specifically, the project provides (a) comprehensive professional development for 256 high school teachers in Iowa, Minnesota and Wisconsin so they can effectively implement national goals for standards-based mathematics education through implementation of the Core-Plus instructional materials in their classrooms; (b) leadership development for 16 master teachers who are experienced with Core-Plus; (c) leadership development, structured workshop and classroom observation, and preservice or inservice leadership experience for eight college professors and eight school mathematics curriculum supervisors; and (d) experiences for participants to work with all stakeholders, such as parents and administrators, on behalf of standards-based renewal of school mathematics education. The project's teacher-participants engage in professional development in two cadres, each for two years, for at least six weeks over the life of the project; university/college professors and school mathematics supervisors participate for approximately four weeks.

根据教师保留和更新的指导方针提交，这个为期49个月的项目“旨在培养一批教师、领导者、监督者和大学数学教育工作者，他们将作为变革推动者，负责实施基于标准的高中数学改革”[项目摘要]。 更具体地说，该项目为爱荷华州、明尼苏达州和威斯康星州的256名高中教师提供了（a）全面的专业发展，使他们能够通过在课堂上使用Core-Plus教学材料，有效地实现基于标准的数学教育的国家目标;（B）为16名有Core-Plus经验的教师提供领导能力发展;（c）为八名大学教授和八名学校数学课程督导员提供领导才能发展、有系统的工作坊和课堂观察，以及在职或在职领导经验;以及（d）参与者与所有利益攸关方，如家长和行政人员，代表学校数学教育的标准更新。 该项目的教师参与者在两名干部中进行专业发展，每名为期两年，在项目期间至少进行六周的培训;大学/学院教授和学校数学指导员参加大约四周的培训。
