The Summer Certification Institute in Secondary Mathematics (SCISM) program at Arizona State University is a parallel certification sequence that is enabling 30 upper-level students to take the courses and fieldwork required to become secondary mathematics teachers while they are completing a bachelor's degree in mathematics or engineering. SCISM students complete their education requirements in the senior academic year and the two summers before and after the senior year. They graduate with a bachelor's degree in mathematics or engineering and 15 graduate credits toward the M.Ed. Two distinctive features of SCISM are an undergraduate teaching practicum and the use of professional learning communities (PLCs). In the practicum, SCISM candidates are mentored in teaching a section of College Algebra in ASU undergraduate classrooms. The candidates participate in teacher professional learning communities that are linked to the practicum. In their PLCs, SCISM candidates dig deeply into the content they are teaching and support one another in developing effective lesson plans and methods of instruction. The PLCs continue into the new teacher induction period, serving as a framework for supporting the teachers during their novitiate as high school math instructors. SCISM students gain their field experience and student teaching credits in high-need Arizona school districts. They are required to teach mathematics for three years in a high-need district upon completing the SCISM program. CRESMET, ASU's Center for Research on Education in Science, Mathematics, Engineering and Technology, is sponsoring SCISM in collaboration with the College of Education, the Department of Mathematics, and the Ira A. Fulton School of Engineering. SCISM is expanding on a pilot effort that CRESMET launched in 2005 with eight students and start-up funding from the Boeing Company. SCISM draws inspiration from the UTeach model established at the University of Texas at Austin and innovates on the UTeach model by combining a college classroom-teaching model with the use of professional learning communities.

亚利桑那州立大学的中学数学夏季认证研究所（SCISM）计划是一个平行的认证序列，使30名高年级学生能够在完成数学或工程学士学位的同时参加成为中学数学教师所需的课程和实地考察。SCISM学生在高年级学年和高年级前后的两个夏天完成他们的教育要求。他们毕业于数学或工程学士学位和15个研究生学分的M. ED. SCISM的两个显着特点是本科教学实习和专业学习社区（PLC）的使用。在实习中，SCISM候选人在亚利桑那州立大学本科教室教授大学代数的一部分。候选人参加与实习相关的教师专业学习社区。在他们的PLC中，SCISM候选人深入挖掘他们所教授的内容，并在制定有效的课程计划和教学方法方面相互支持。PLC继续进入新的教师入职期间，作为一个框架，支持教师在他们的见习高中数学教师。SCISM学生获得他们的实地经验和学生教学学分在高需求的亚利桑那州学区。他们被要求在完成SCISM计划后在一个高需求地区教三年数学。亚利桑那州立大学科学、数学、工程和技术教育研究中心CRESMET与教育学院、数学系和伊拉A.富尔顿工程学院。SCISM正在扩大CRESMET于2005年启动的一项试点工作，有8名学生和波音公司的启动资金。 SCISM从德克萨斯大学奥斯汀分校建立的UTeach模式中汲取灵感，并通过将大学课堂教学模式与专业学习社区的使用相结合来创新UTeach模式。
