Mathematics Teacher Leadership Center

摘要0832026北科罗拉多大学及其核心合作伙伴怀俄明大学、格里利学区(CO)、摩根学区(CO)、波德雷县学区(CO)、拉勒米县学区(WY)和碳县学区(WY)提出了数学教师领导中心(Math TLC)。Math TLC是一个综合伙伴关系，旨在提高北落基山脉地区中、中、后教育的数学水平。这一师范学院项目的关键是与教师和学区合作，留住外地的新教师和继续教师，培养领导能力。合作伙伴将开发和实施中学数学硕士学位，并为4-12年级的教师开发和实施数学教师领导计划。这两个项目都将对学生成绩的影响进行研究。硕士项目(32学分)每年将支持4批15-18名教师，教师领导项目(24学分)将在五年项目中支持3批10-12名教师。课程将采取面对面授课和在线授课相结合的方式。从4年级到12年级的95,000多名学生可能会在项目的整个过程中受到影响：23,700名学生直接由硕士课程的老师注册，71,000名学生将与教师领导一起工作。一项密集的招聘计划计划吸引来自科罗拉多州(南犹特印第安人保护区和犹特山印第安人保护区)和怀俄明州(风河保护区)的美洲原住民学区的教师。研究计划将研究专业发展(PD)对教师数学理解、教学内容知识和文化能力的影响，以教授科罗拉多州和怀俄明州不同的学生。这项研究将追踪教师变化及其对6-12年级学生成绩的影响，并将通过该项目提出的领导模型的定量设计实验来增进对教师领导发展的了解。Math TLC的变革性概念是开发北科罗拉多大学和怀俄明州大学联合共享的在线硕士学位，并与领导力课程相结合。这项全面的传播计划包括一个门户网站，用于在线分发研究和实施成果，在同行评议的期刊上发表研究结果，并在区域和国家会议上作介绍。该伙伴关系将在未来积极努力，扩大合作范围，包括更多的学校和大学合作伙伴。对社会的好处是改善社会经济、文化和种族多元化课堂上的数学教与学。

Abstract 0832026 A Mathematics Teacher Leadership Center (Math TLC) is proposed by the University of Northern Colorado and its Core Partners, the University of Wyoming, Greeley School District #6 (CO), Morgan County School District (CO), Poudre County School District (CO), Laramie County School District 1 (WY), and Carbon County School District 1 (WY).Math TLC is an integrated partnership to improve mathematics in middle, secondary and post secondary education in the north Rocky Mountains region. Key to this Teacher Institute project is working with teachers and districts to retain new and continuing teachers in the field and develop leadership capacity. The Partners will develop and implement a Master's degree in Secondary Mathematics, and a Teacher Leadership Program in mathematics for teachers, grades 4-12. Research is to be carried out on the impact of both these programs on student achievement.The Master's program (32 credit hours) will support 4 cohorts of 15-18 teachers per year and the Teacher Leadership program (24 credit hours) will support 3 cohorts of 10-12 teachers per year, over the five year project. The courses will be a combination of face- to-face and on-line delivery. More than 95,000 students from grades 4 through 12 are potentially impacted over the life of the project: 23,700 directly by teacher enrolled in the master's program and 71, 000 students of teachers who will work with Teacher Leaders. An intensive recruitment program is planned to attract teachers from Native American school districts in Colorado (Southern Ute Indian Reservation and Ute Mountain Indian Reservation) and Wyoming (the Wind River Reservation).The research program will study the impact of professional development (PD) on teachers' mathematical understanding, pedagogical content knowledge and cultural competencies for teaching diverse students in Colorado and Wyoming. The study will track teacher change and its effect on student achievement, grades 6-12, and will advance knowledge of teacher leadership development through a quantitative design experiment of the leadership model proposed by the project. The transformative concept in Math TLC is the development of the online master's degree shared jointly by the Universities of Northern Colorado and Wyoming in combination with a leadership program. Success will require substantive institutional affiliation and will transform PD for isolated rural teachers by providing significant mathematics content integrated with culturally informed pedagogical methods, by creating master teachers and teacher-leaders that have the expertise to intellectually engage underserved groups.The comprehensive dissemination plan includes a web portal for the online distribution of research and implementation outcomes, publications of findings in peer reviewed journals and presentations at regional and national meetings. The Partnership will actively work in the future to broaden the collaborative to include additional school and university partners.The benefits to society are improved mathematics teaching and learning in socio-economically, culturally, and ethnically diverse classrooms.
