Summary:
|
The District would like to contract with STEMulate Learning to provide math educational coaching and consulting services to all district math teachers. STEMulate will provide training and instruction that is inquiry based, culturally relevant, and life-affirming that will help to transform educators into effective instructors and facilitators of learning while empowering students to overcome a fear of math and develop the mathematician within them. STEMulate Learning incorporates a triangular approach to rigorous mathematics instruction consisting of Social Emotional Learning, Cultural Competence, and a Growth Mindset framework. Upon completion of each schools’ diagnostic report, STEMulate will provide math teachers with suggestions on how to enhance teacher performance with the following services: MASTERCoaching, MASTERTeacher Professional Development, MASTERTeacher Forums, and ARMS-MFL (Algebra Readiness, MASTERStudent and Math Football League Program). Teachers will receive individual coaching and support around lesson planning, pedagogy, student engagement, formative and summative assessments, and content knowledge. Coaching also includes classroom observations with data-focused debriefs and individual meeting times to discuss classroom strategies. The Professional Development will consist of two (2) to four (4) full-day sessions and the Forums will consist of four sessions that will be extracted from the full-day PD offerings to delve into specific issues faced by all math teachers. |
