The Urban Education Partnership’s Math Initiative strives to improve mathematics education for all children particularly those in low-performing schools in order to increase the number of students enrolled in high level mathematics classes. The Initiative currently has two programs:
Integrating Technology into Math and Science- this program offers summer training for 30 grade 4-12 teachers to increase student use of technology in mathematics problem solving, investigations, data collection and analysis, and reporting/presentations. Model math lessons that incorporate technology can be found at http://www.laep.org/plus/technology/math/index.html
Baldwin Park Math Science Partnership- along with partners, Occidental College and BPUSD, this program offers 80 hours of intensive professional development and in-class coaching that focuses on the Algebra strand in grades 6-8 and Lesson Study.
