Our Primary Goal To Increase Student Achievement
From: Hibpsham, T. (Aug. 27, 2007). A Brief Review of the Preparation of Kentucky Mathematics and Science Teachershttp://www.kyepsb.net/dataresearch/journals/index.asp “Kentucky students continue to lag behind the national average in mathematics at both the 4th and 8th grade levels. Estimates by the Kentucky Council on Postsecondary Education of the proportion of entering freshmen requiring developmental mathematics at Kentucky institutions of higher education indicate that 41% of all entering students -- and 35% of recent high school graduates -- required these services, a figure deemed unacceptably high by CPE.”
From: Ball, D. L. (1990). The mathematical understanding that prospective teachers bring to teacher education. The Elementary School Journal, 90, 449-466 “Assuming that the content of first-grade mathematics is something that any adult understands is to doom school mathematics to a continuation of the dull, rule-based curriculum that is so widely criticized.”
“In fact, teaching mathematics to students in the earliest grades is a demanding process that requires surprisingly high levels of mathematical knowledge. Elementary teachers must impart mathematical knowledge to children who may have difficulty understanding the content regardless of how it is delivered, and teachers need to have sufficiently broad understanding of the content to be able to represent it in multiple ways .” From: Ball, D. L. (1990). The mathematical understanding that prospective teachers bring to teacher education. The Elementary School Journal, 90, 449-466
DIAGNOSTIC INTERVENTION MISSION STATEMENT The goal of the state mathematics diagnostic intervention program is to expand the capacity of teachers to assess a child’s current status and adjust instruction accordingly.
