项目摘要

This Math and Science Partnership project brings together forty-two rural Maine schools, the University of Maine, three Maine non-profits with expertise in science education, and science and technology leaders at the Maine Department of Education to target the teaching and learning of physical sciences in grades 6-9. The partnership research is aimed at gathering information on effective science curricula and pedagogy for working in rural communities. This project focuses on the identification and implementation of proven curricular resources and the full range of critical supports needed for their successful implementation. The Partnership implements research-supported curricula and intensive professional development for teachers using the new curricula. Pre-service teachers of science from the University of Maine and partnering universities participate in curriculum selection and professional development, and also work as teaching partners in the classroom to implement the curriculum. The implementation involves approximately 9800 students and 100 teachers and exposes teachers to 100 hours of professional development over two years. The project provides direct services to the participating districts, builds a regional infrastructure for ongoing improvement in STEM education and contributes to a designed research effort that will inform future rural educational initiatives.

这个数学和科学合作项目汇集了42所缅因州农村学校，缅因州大学，三个缅因州非营利组织在科学教育方面的专业知识，以及缅因州教育部的科学和技术领导者，以6-9年级的物理科学教学为目标。伙伴关系研究的目的是收集关于在农村社区工作的有效科学课程和教学法的信息。该项目的重点是确定和实施经过验证的课程资源，以及成功实施所需的全方位关键支持。该伙伴关系为使用新课程的教师提供研究支持课程和强化专业发展。来自缅因州大学和合作大学的职前科学教师参与课程选择和专业发展，并在课堂上作为教学伙伴实施课程。该项目的实施涉及约9800名学生和100名教师，并在两年时间内为教师提供100小时的专业发展。该项目为参与地区提供直接服务，为持续改善STEM教育建立区域基础设施，并为设计研究工作做出贡献，为未来的农村教育举措提供信息。
