Planning Grant for Project MERIT

西维吉尼亚州教育部将与其他伙伴合作，开展一项规划项目，为MERIT项目奠定基础。MERIT项目是西维吉尼亚州7012年级数学教师的一个多年期、系统和持续的教师提升计划。该计划项目是根据“通过提高7-12年级的数学教师来进行局部系统性改变”的指导方针提交的，计划项目规定选出一个由35名成员组成的国家数学团队的负责人，他们将依次审查选定的由美国国家科学基金支持的初中/高中数学综合教学材料，为MERIT项目做准备；并为地区和建筑管理人员策划/举办讲习班。国家顾问协助国家小组审查材料，一个由项目负责人组成的小组访问选定的示范教师加强项目地点。费用分摊估计为NSF奖金的250%。
