Teacher Preparation Archives: Case Studies of NSF-funded Middle School Math & Science Teacher Preparation Project

伊利诺伊大学将开展这项名为《教师培训档案：美国国家科学基金会资助的中学数学和科学教师培训项目案例研究》的项目。该项目将对1985-86年通过计划征集资助的9个中学教师培养项目进行分析和评估，并将这些项目的信息和材料存档。每个中学项目都将由一名研究人员访问，他们将对该项目进行深入研究，收集并归档该项目的材料，并准备一份描述该地点的案例研究报告。将在所有网站上审查一组共同的问题和问题，并将鼓励研究人员针对每个网站寻求更多主题。研究人员将探索每个项目的发展、成功和成就，以及经历的困难和吸取的教训。将建立一个储存库，将从所有地点收集的材料存档，并将实地考察报告纳入一份文件，广泛分发给数学和科学教育工作者。这份文件和存档材料将为中学项目提供一个机制，影响全国各地的教师准备实践。

The University of Illinois will carry out the project, "Teacher Preparation Archives: Case Studies of NSF-funded Middle School Math and Science Teacher Preparation Projects." The project will analyze and evaluate the nine middle-school teacher preparation projects funded through a program solicitation in 1985-86 and will archive information and materials from these projects. Each middle school project will be visited by a researcher who will carry out an in-depth study of the project, collect and archive materials from the project, and prepare a case- study report describing the site. A set of common issues and questions will be examined across all sites, and researchers will be encouraged to pursue additional topics specific to each site. Researchers will explore the development of each project, its successes and accomplishments, and the difficulties experienced and lessons learned. A repository will be established to archive the collected materials from all the sites, and the site visit reports will be incorporated into a document which will be widely disseminated to mathematics and science educators. This document and archived materials will provide a mechanism for the middle school projects to influence teacher preparation practice throughout the country.
