Scaling up successful strategies from a previous Targeted NSF-MSP
Abstract
STEM Faculty engage in implementing content-deepening experiences for teachers in collaboration with Teachers on Special Assignment (TOSAs) by observing, supporting, and presenting focused content and Pedagogical Content Knowledge (PCK) lessons. STEM Faculty learn strategies to use with community college and university developmental mathematics courses through this collaboration. Gradual Release of Responsibility (GRR) demo lessons, lesson design, co-planning, lesson delivery, and reflection through Professional Learning Communities (PLCs) provides an effective vehicle to support all mathematics teachers in learning content, pedagogy, and specific instructional strategies to raise achievement levels for their students. Through consistent delivery of mathematics content, student achievement will increase.View All Paper Session Presentations from the 2011 MSP LNC Conference
