Renewal Funding for the Summative Evaluation of Rocky Mountain Teacher Education Collaborative

现在，在其第五个年头，落基山教师教育合作（RMTEC）已经取得了副教师准备和本科教学和数学和科学学习的持续变化的记录。RMTEC的目的是：（1）加强对兼职教师的培训，重点是调整、改革和开发数学和科学教学的创新课程和教学方法;（2）发展主要伙伴机构、社区学院和学区之间的合作;（3）招聘和留住妇女和少数民族从事数学和科学教学职业。三个高等教育伙伴机构，在整个科罗拉多学区的教师和管理人员的合作，建议进行为期三年的总结性评估RMTEC项目。本次评估旨在解决三个主要领域的评估：合作，制度化和学生成果。

Now in its fifth year, the Rocky Mountain Teacher Education Collaborative (RMTEC) has achieved a record of sustained change in preservice teacher preparation and undergraduate teaching and learning in mathematics and science. The purpose of RMTEC is to (1) improve the preparation of preservice teachers, with emphasis on restructuring, reforming, and developing innovative curricula and instructional methods for teaching mathematics and science; (2) develop collaborations among the primary partner institutions, community colleges, and school districts; (3) recruit and retain women and ethnic minorities for teaching careers in mathematics and science. Three of the higher education partner institutions, in collaboration with teachers and administrators of school districts throughout Colorado, propose to conduct a three-year summative evaluation of the RMTEC project. This evaluation is organized to address assessment in three overarching areas: collaboration, institutionalization, and student outcomes.
