Northern Arizona University and several Arizona elementary school districts (Mesa Public Schools, Cottonwood-Oak Creek School District, and Flagstaff Unified School District) are working together to build capacity and readiness to provide research based, job-embedded professional learning for elementary teachers that develops science content knowledge, as well as effective pedagogy that meaningfully integrates science with other elementary content learning. Using the MSP-Start, the partnership is building a foundation for this transformation by planning strategies for replication and evaluation of key components of the Valle Imperial Project in Science (VIPS) in El Centro California, and Florida Atlantic University's Science IDEAS. Rather than displacing science instruction to create more time for language arts, these programs purposefully and meaningfully integrate literacy instruction with inquiry-embedded science instruction; results from studies of implementation of the two programs indicate considerable achievement gains in science and writing as well as reading and mathematics. Replication of the Valle Imperial and El Centro projects in diverse schools in Arizona thus has the potential to produce evidence that the strategies learned from these projects can have positive impact on student achievement in reading and math, while at the same time preparing students to be competent in areas of science and technology that are also important in today's global community. During this planning year, the partners are building a common vision, establishing roles and responsibilities, identifying needs, developing and finalizing the research and evaluation plans, and determining the model of implementation. A project evaluator is collecting evidence about the strength and effectiveness of partnership development and completion of planning phase goals, and providing recommendations for improvement as needed to prepare an effective full Targeted Partnership proposal.

北亚利桑那大学和亚利桑那州的几个小学学区（梅萨公立学校、Cottonwood-Oak Creek学区和Flagstaff联合学区）正在共同努力，为小学教师提供基于研究的、嵌入工作的专业学习，以发展科学内容知识，以及有效的教学方法，将科学与其他基础内容学习有意义地结合起来。利用MSP-Start，通过规划复制和评估加州埃尔森特罗山谷帝国科学项目（VIPS）和佛罗里达大西洋大学科学理念的关键组成部分的战略，合作伙伴关系正在为这一转变奠定基础。这些项目并没有取代科学教学，为语言艺术创造更多的时间，而是有意义地将识字教学与探究性科学教学相结合；实施这两个项目的研究结果表明，学生在科学和写作以及阅读和数学方面取得了相当大的成就。因此，在亚利桑那州的不同学校复制帝国谷和埃尔森特罗项目有可能产生证据，证明从这些项目中学到的策略可以对学生的阅读和数学成绩产生积极影响，同时让学生在科学和技术领域做好准备，这些领域在当今的全球社会中也很重要。在这一规划年度，合作伙伴正在建立共同的愿景，确定作用和责任，确定需要，制定和最后确定研究和评价计划，并确定执行模式。项目评估员正在收集有关伙伴关系发展的强度和有效性以及规划阶段目标完成情况的证据，并根据需要提出改进建议，以准备一份有效的完整的目标伙伴关系提案。
