College Prepatory Mathematics Project

该项目将继续对芝加哥伊利诺伊大学的教师进行培训，并将开始对另外两个地点的教师进行培训——威斯康星大学帕克赛德分校和德保罗大学。培训将包括以学生为中心的密集夏季讲习班，例如使用创新的解决问题/应用为导向的材料进行合作学习。教师们将在夏季通过参加暑期课程的高中生教学小组获得使用这些材料的经验。每位教师将在下一学年为参加暑期课程的学生在一年级综合高中数学的双课时课堂上实施这些材料。本学年将有支持研讨会，以支持教师，以及项目工作人员的课堂观察。这种支持将持续两个暑假和两个学年，这些年来，老师们将为同样的学生教授高中二年级和三年级的数学。在分布在三个中心的五所高中中，互动数学项目的材料将由该项目支持的教师实施。一个全面的评估计划将跟踪学生的表现和教师的留任情况。

This project will continue training teachers at the University of Illinois at Chicago and will begin the training of teachers at two other sites -- the University of Wisconsin-Parkside and DePaul University. Training will consist of intensive summer workshops on student-centered methods for teaching, such as using cooperative learning using innovative problem-solving/applications-oriented materials. The teachers will gain experience using the materials in the summer by teaching groups of high school students taking summer courses. Each teacher will implement the materials in a double-period class of first-year integrated high school mathematics during the following school year for the same students that attended the summer course. There will be support seminars during this school year to support the teachers, as well as in-class observation by project staff. This support will continue for two more summers and school years, with the teachers teaching second- and third-year high school mathematics those years to the same students. In a total of five high schools spread among the three centers, the Interactive Mathematics Project materials will be implemented by the teachers supported by this project. A comprehensive evaluation plan will track student performance and retention of teachers from this project.
