School-Based Teacher Enhancement and Leadership Development in Mathematics

这个为期两年的项目将开发、测试和记录一个在全校范围内改变小学和中学数学教学的模式，目标是促进符合加州数学框架和NCTM标准的教学。加州的五所小学和四所中学将在项目工作人员和16名教师的带领下，完成一项为期五年的教职员工发展计划，该计划始于州和地方的资助。每年夏天，数学领导力候选人将参加为期一周的学院，为他们的领导角色做好准备。所有参与学校的教师将参加由Marilyn Burns Associates提供的为期一周的数学内容和方法课程，费用由地区支付。在学年期间，数学领袖候选人将定期与项目工作人员会面，并为参与计划的学校的全体员工提供每月的在职培训。该项目的产品将包括一本数学领导力指南。加利福尼亚州教育部、阿拉米达县教育办公室和参与的学区将以费用分摊的形式提供相当于NSF奖励88%的资金。

This two-year project will develop, test, and document a model for school-wide change in the teaching of elementary and middle school mathematics, with the goal of promoting instruction that is consistent with the California Mathematics Framework and the NCTM Standards. Led by project staff and sixteen teachers serving as "math leadership candidates," five elementary schools and four middle schools in California will conclude a five-year staff development program that was begun with state and local funding. Each summer, the mathematics leadership candidates will attend one-week institutes to prepare them for their leadership roles. All teachers in the participating schools will, at district expense, take a one-week course on mathematics content and methodology offered by Marilyn Burns Associates. During the academic years, the mathematics leadership candidates will meet regularly with project staff and will provide monthly inservice sessions to the entire staff of the participating schools. Products of the project will include a Mathematics Leadership Guide. The California State Department of Education, the Alameda County Office of Education, and the participating school districts are contributing as cost-sharing an amount equal to 88% of the NSF award.
