C: Helping Teachers become Cultural Relevant Teachers: Developing New Tools for a New Generation

马里兰少数民族成就和城市教育研究所（MIMAUE）为期12个月的项目包括为至少100名教师和管理人员举行一次全国会议，这些教师和管理人员在有大量非洲裔美国人和西班牙裔学生的教室里工作。会议的主题是“帮助教师成为与文化相关的教师：为新一代开发新工具”。会议将全国顶尖的研究人员和实践者聚集在一起，围绕一个重要的主题，以促进城市和少数民族学生的高成就。与研讨会相关的一个具体成果包括让辅导员将他们的一些工作带到他们自己的教室，作为教师和管理人员将在一些会议上分析的新工作的刺激。会议结束后，将在三个月、六个月和九个月后对当地教师进行抽样观察，以评估讲习班的思想对其教学的影响程度。会议参与者还将在六个月的时间点发送邮件调查，以确定会议对课堂规划和教学的影响。

The twelve-month project of the Maryland Institute for Minority Achievement and Urban Education (MIMAUE) involves the holding of a national conference for at least 100 teachers and administrators who work in classrooms with large African American and Hispanic student populations. The conference theme is "Helping Teachers become Cultural Relevant Teachers: Developing New Tools for a New Generation." The conference brings together top national researchers and practitioners around a theme of importance in order to promote high achievement among urban and minority students. A specific outcome in relation to the workshop sessions involves having facilitators bring some of their work in their own classrooms to be used as a stimulus for the new work that teachers and administrators will analyze in some of the conference sessions. After the conference, a sample of the local teachers will be observed after three month, six months, and nine months in order to assess the extent to which the ideas from the workshop have influenced their teaching. Conference participants will also send a mail survey at the six-month point to determine the impact of the conference on classroom planning and teaching.
