The Ohio State University College of Education (OSU), the National Middle School Association (NMSA), and Education Development Center (EDC) are providing a stewardship role for middle level educators of mathematics and science by creating the Math and Science Middle School Pathways Portal, or MSP2. While continuing to create and offer contextualized, high-quality resources, MSP2 is also capitalizing on Web 2.0 tools to promote interactivity, collaboration, and knowledge sharing among its users. Additionally, MSP2 is expanding its scope of influence through a new section designed for middle school aged youth and new resources related to career development, 21st century skills, and STEM careers. The portal also provides a virtual professional learning community of middle level math and science teachers. Project partners are integrating resources, tools, and services across projects, and supporting multiple methods of resource discovery to meets the needs of this audience. Collaboration among these and other organizations is providing the longer-term sustainability and stewardship of MSP2. The project evaluation is determining the impact of the project on its target audiences and the educational uses of Web 2.0 tools and services.MSP2 enhances the infrastructure for research and education by continuing to develop a contextualized, high-quality resource collection, building and supporting networks of middle grades math and science teachers through a virtual professional learning community, and supporting the educational use of Web 2.0 tools and services. Dissemination of knowledge, experience, and research results is a significant aspect of the project. The project partners are reaching diverse audiences through conferences, meetings, online events, print publications, and Web communications.

俄亥俄州州立大学教育学院（OSU）、全国中学协会（NMSA）和教育发展中心（EDC）正在通过创建数学和科学中学路径门户网站（MSP 2），为数学和科学的中级教育工作者提供管理角色。在继续创建和提供情境化的高质量资源的同时，MSP 2还利用Web 2.0工具来促进用户之间的互动、协作和知识共享。此外，MSP 2正在通过为中学生设计的新部分以及与职业发展，21世纪技能和STEM职业相关的新资源扩大其影响范围。该门户网站还提供了一个由中级数学和科学教师组成的虚拟专业学习社区。项目合作伙伴正在跨项目集成资源、工具和服务，并支持多种资源发现方法，以满足这一受众的需求。这些组织和其他组织之间的合作为第二次缔约国会议提供了长期的可持续性和管理。该项目的评估是确定其目标受众和Web 2.0工具和服务的教育用途的项目的影响。MSP 2通过继续开发一个情境化的，高质量的资源收集，通过一个虚拟的专业学习社区建立和支持中年级数学和科学教师的网络，并支持Web 2.0工具和服务的教育使用。传播知识、经验和研究成果是该项目的一个重要方面。项目合作伙伴正在通过各种会议、在线活动、印刷出版物和网络通信接触不同的受众。
