Lexington Collaborative for Revitalizing and Improving Middle Mathematics (LCRIMM)

列克星敦振兴和提高中学数学合作（LCRIMM）汇集了列克星敦社区学院，肯塔基大学和费耶特县公立学校，以提高肯塔基州地区列克星敦中学数学教师的数量和质量。该项目正在解决提高中学生数学成绩的一个主要障碍：教师对教授基于标准的数学课程所需的数学知识有限。该协作小组正在解决中学数学教师的知识基础，创建两个课程，需要在他们的数学准备：几何课程和统计课程。每个课程的内容都与州和国家数学教育标准以及国际技术教育协会（伊泰亚）的技术素养标准保持一致。这些课程是基于活动的，并适当利用技术，协作活动和现实世界的问题。费耶特县公立学校的教师参与了试点课程的开发和团队教学。

The Lexington Collaborative for Revitalizing and Improving Middle Mathematics (LCRIMM) brings together Lexington Community College, the University of Kentucky, and Fayette County Public Schools to increase the quantity and quality of middle school mathematics teachers in the Lexington, Kentucky area. The project is addressing a primary barrier to improving middle school students' mathematics performance: teachers' limited knowledge of the mathematics needed to teach standards-based mathematics curricula. The collaborative group is addressing the knowledge base of middle school mathematics teachers by creating two courses needed in their mathematics preparation: a geometry course and a statistics course. The content of each is being aligned with state and national mathematics standards for preservice education, and with the International Technology Education Association (ITEA) standards for technological literacy. The courses are activity-based and make appropriate use of technology, collaborative activities, and real-world problems. Fayette County Public School teachers are involved in the development and team-teaching of the pilot courses.
