9353303琼斯该奖项颁发给孟菲斯市学校，旨在奖励孟菲斯市科学和数学教育的自学。它由一个战略规划指导委员会指导，该委员会广泛代表社区、教育工作者、企业和决策者。自学开始将检查城市的科学和数学计划的目标，导致这些目标的声明和实现计划。委员会将由来自孟菲斯市学校的研究、数学和科学专家组成，研究服务协调员将担任自学的负责人。数据收集将包括各种协调程序、观察、新数据收集和对其中现有信息的分析。广泛的参与者将参与目标澄清，研究设计，测量，分析和报告，从而确保所有权和“买入”的一个广泛代表性的群体的埃塞俄比亚人。将利用参与研究的个人和团体网络广泛传播研究结果。委员会将继续定期审查数学和科学教育的状况，并将发布关于孟菲斯市数学和科学教育状况的报告。该项目的成本分摊将占NSF部分的19%。***

9353303 Jones This award to the Memphis City Schools is for a self-study of science and mathematics education in the city of Memphis. It is directed by a Strategic Planning Steering Committee that is broadly representative of the community, educators, business, and policy makers. The self-study will begin with an examination of goals for the city's science and mathematics programs leading to a statement of those goals and a plan for their attainment. The committee will be staffed by research, mathematics, and science specialists from the Memphis City Schools, with the Coordinator of Research Services as the staff person in charge of the self-study. Data collection will include a variety of coordinated procedures, observations, new data collection, and analysis of existing information among them. A broad range of participants will be involved in goal clarification, study design, measurement, analysis, and reporting thereby insuring ownership and "buy-in" by a broadly representative group of Memphians. The results will be broadly disseminated using the network of individuals and groups involved in the study itself. The committee will continue to review the status of mathematics and science education periodically and will issue reports on the state of mathematics and science education in the City of Memphis. The cost-sharing for the project will be 19 percent of the NSF portion. ***
