The Community College Pathways initiative consists of two pathways, Statway® and Quantway®, that accelerate post-secondary students' progress through their developmental mathematics sequence and a college-level course for credit. Launched in 2011, the Pathways have been remarkably successful, helping thousands of students achieve success in…

From 2012 to 2016 all teachers of mathematics, in primary through to upper secondary and adult education, in Sweden are to be given the opportunity of receiving state-coordinated professional development (PD), generally involving around one meeting per week for a year. We examine the ways in which this programme and its content are research-based…

Leahy, Keelin; Phelan, Pat – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2014
In Ireland, Technology Education's structure and organisation across the levels of education is not delivered or governed in a coherent manner. Technology Education in primary level education, for students between 5 and 12 years of age, does not explicitly exist as a separate subject. In primary level education, Social, Environmental and…

Noyes, Andrew; Wake, Geoff; Drake, Pat – Curriculum Journal, 2013
Mathematics education is rarely out of the policy spotlight in England. Over the last 10 years, considerable attention has been given to improving 14-19 mathematics curriculum pathways. In this paper we consider some of the challenges of enacting curriculum change by drawing upon evidence from our evaluation of the Mathematics Pathways Project…

Dai, David Yun; Steenbergen-Hu, Saiying – Roeper Review, 2015
This article introduces the Special Class for the Gifted Young (SCGY), an early college entrance program in mathematics and science in China, which has been a focus for media coverage and public discussion of accelerated education in China. We first describe the admission policy and academic programming of SCGY and delineate its distinct features.…

The mathematical sciences are part of nearly all aspects of everyday life--the discipline has underpinned such beneficial modern capabilities as Internet search, medical imaging, computer animation, numerical weather predictions, and all types of digital communications. "The Mathematical Sciences in 2025" examines the current state of the…

Gautreau, Cynthia; Kirtman, Lisa; Guillaume, Andrea – Multicultural Education, 2011
This article presents the activities and results of an American Association of University Women (AAUW) Campus Action Project designed to promote Latinas' mathematical confidence and competence in teaching elementary mathematics. The project explored how school and family experiences contribute to Latinas' sense of self efficacy as teachers of…

Gouzman, Roman; Kozulin, Alex – International Journal of Inclusive Education, 2011
The present study investigated the effectiveness of a cognitive enrichment programme as a tool for enhancing the chances of immigrant and minority students to be admitted to a technological college. Students received two weekly sessions (four hours) of "Instrumental Enrichment" (IE) during the second semester of the college preparatory…

Hiebert, James – Teacher Education and Practice, 2013
An alternative mathematics preparation program for K-8 teachers is described as an existence proof that steadily increasing effectiveness of STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) preparation is possible. The program is based on treating every lesson in each of five mathematics content and methods courses as objects of study.…

Wilson, Zach; Howley, Craig – Appalachian Collaborative Center for Learning, Assessment, and Instruction in Mathematics (ACCLAIM), 2012
"Going Further" presents a roadmap to the works of the ACCLAIM (Appalachian Collaborative Center for Learning, Assessment, and Instruction in Mathematics) Research Initiative, the research effort of one the Centers for Learning and Teaching (CLTs) created with a grant (2001-2005) from the National Science Foundation. The Center began…

Heck, Daniel J.; Weiss, Iris R.; Pasley, Joan D. – Center for Mental Health in Schools at UCLA, 2011
The Common Core State Standards for Mathematics (CCSSM) were developed as part of a broader effort coordinated by the National Governors Association Center for Best Practices and the Council of Chief State School Officers to develop common state standards in key subjects. Released in 2010, the CCSSM are intended to provide a blueprint for the…

Jones, Brent M. – Journal of Advanced Academics, 2009
Unless we sharply increase the training of homegrown math and science talents, we may suffer negative economic and technological consequences. One means of addressing this challenge has been through specialty schools devoted to science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) training. In 1980, the North Carolina School of Science and…

Artigue, Michele; Cerulli, Michele; Haspekian, Mariam; Maracci, Mirko – International Journal of Computers for Mathematical Learning, 2009
This paper presents the methodology developed within TELMA for connecting and integrating the theoretical frames used by the different teams for studying the design and use of interactive learning environments in mathematics education. Two case studies are then analysed and compared in order to illustrate the methodology and the results it can…

Trgalova, Jana; Bouhineau, Denis; Nicaud, Jean-Francois – International Journal of Computers for Mathematical Learning, 2009
The analysis presented in this article tries to obtain a global view of the field of interactive learning environments (ILE) dedicated to arithmetic and algebra. As preliminaries, a brief overview of evaluation methods focusing on educational software is given and a short description of ten ILEs concerned by the study is provided as a kind of a…

Allen, Kasi; St. John, Mark; Tambe, Pamela – Inverness Research, 2009
Back in 1992, the National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded grants to five curriculum development teams and charged them with the task of starting over. Five years later, each of the development teams had produced an innovative and "integrated" curriculum. All represented notable departures from the commonly encountered, calculus-driven high…
