Continuing, GK-12 Groundwork Education in Mathematics and Science (GEMS)

研究人员：Christine L.RichINSTUTION：路易斯维尔大学TITLE：继续，GK-12数学和科学基础教育(GEMS)GK-12数学和科学基础教育(GEMS)是GK-12持续的数学和科学基础教育项目，是路易斯维尔大学(UL)和杰斐逊县公立学校(JCPS)的合作伙伴关系。该项目将STEM学科的研究生研究员与课堂上的教师合作，以促进基于标准的改革。继续进行的项目将重点放在中学(6-7年级)。主要调查人员致力于可持续性和体制变革。该项目每年将招聘10名STEM研究生研究员(其中一人将得到UL的支持)和10名JCPS教师。该项目总共将影响30多个班级(约900名学生)。评价工作将确定宝石对参与者的影响；因此，它将侧重于产生可衡量的结果。智力上的好处包括开发一个以工作为基础的职业发展计划，以刺激学生的参与，并为教师领导干部做好准备。更广泛的影响包括为GK-12的制度化建立一个示范基础，就像大学毕业生培训计划中的经验一样。

GRADUATE TEACHING FELLOWS IN K-12 EDUCATION ABSTRACTPROPOSAL #: 0638579PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR: Christine L. RichINSTITUTION: University of LouisvilleTITLE: Continuing, GK-12 Groundwork Education in Mathematics and Science (GEMS)The Groundwork Education in Mathematics and Science (GEMS), a continuing GK-12 project, is a partnership between the University of Louisville (UL) and the Jefferson County Public Schools (JCPS). The project partners graduate fellows from STEM disciplines with teachers in the classroom to promote standard-based reform. The continuing project will focus at the middle school level (grades 6-7). The principal investigators are committed to sustainability and institutional change. Each year the project will recruit 10 STEM graduate fellows (one of which will be supported by UL) and 10 JCPS teachers. Together the project will impact over 30 classes (with approximately 900 students). The evaluation effort will determine what effects GEMS is having on the participants; therefore, it will focus on producing measurable outcomes. The intellectual merit includes developing a job-embedded professional development program that stimulates student engagement and preparation of a cadre of teacher leaders. The broader impacts include building a model foundation for institutionalization of GK-12 like experiences in University graduate training programs.
