Birmingham Systemic Change 2000 Project K-5 Mathematics

小行星9714322 伯明翰公立学校系统和位于伯明翰的亚拉巴马大学结成了伙伴关系，以解决该地区数学成绩下降的问题。 该项目将为K-5年级的教师提供主要的工作人员发展。 伯明翰K-5改革计划有四个主要内容： 1. 采用高质量的改革课程系列， 日常数学 2. 创建一个数学工作人员发展小组， 课堂教师，数学教育工作者， 数学家， 3. 为所有K-5提供实质性的教师培训 系统中的教师，以及 4. 制定持续教师更新计划， 项目结束。 该地区所有907名K-5教师将参加一个密集的员工发展计划，其中包括夏季学院和学年会议。 工作人员发展小组将设计和实施该方案。 NSF资助的桥梁课堂数学项目将与工作人员发展团队合作设计该计划。 此外，五名数学资源教师将在实施过程中支持课堂教师。 家长、教师、管理人员和企业界参与了规划。 项目评估将包括参与核心评估过程，以及沿着所有其他LSC项目。

9714322 Dale The Birmingham Public School System and the University of Alabama at Birmingham formed a partnership to address the problem of declining mathematics achievement in the district. This project will provide major staff development for teachers of grades K-5. The Birmingham K-5 reform plan has four main elements: 1. The adoption of a high-quality reform-based curriculum series, Everyday Mathematics. 2. The creation of a mathematics Staff Development Team composed of classroom teachers, mathematics educators, and mathematicians, 3. The provision of substantive teacher enhancement for all K-5 teachers in the system, and 4. The development of a plan for on-going teacher renewal after the project ends. All 907 of the district's K-5 teachers will participate in an intensive staff development program that includes summer institutes and academic year meetings. The Staff Development Team will design and implement the program. The NSF-funded Bridges to Classroom Mathematics Project will work cooperatively with the Staff Development Team in designing the program. Additionally, five Mathematics Resource Teachers will support classroom teachers during implementation. Parents, teachers, administrators, and the business community participated in the planning. The project evaluation will include participation in the core evaluation process, along with all of the other LSC projects.
