  1. Mathematics Center for Educator DevelopmentCharles A. Dana Center, UT Austin • Mathematics and Science statewide professional development–TEXTEAMS • Instructional resources and materials • Instructional leadership development–TEKS for Leaders • Support for mathematics higher education (preservice and outreach)

  2. Focus on mathematical proficiency for all students

  3. The Instructional Program in Texas pre-2002 TEKS (written curriculum) Taught TAKS (state-wide testing)

  4. Teaching TEKS Teaching TAKS Goal: Student Learning/ Student Achievement It’s not about TAKS, it’s about TEKS!

  5. TEXTEAMS Mathematics Institutes Statewide K-12 professional development with an emphasis on … • Improving mathematical content knowledge of teachers • In-depth attention to the TEKS • Connections to classrooms and instructional practice Developed by the Dana Center; funded by TEA.

  6. Mathematics TEXTEAMS Institutes Elementary School • PreK-K Institute • Rethinking Elementary Mathematics, Parts I & II (new)

  7. Mathematics TEXTEAMS Institutes Middle School • Rethinking Middle School Mathematics series: -Proportionality Across the TEKS -Algebraic Reasoning Across the TEKS -Numerical Reasoning Across the TEKS -Geometry Across the TEKS (new) -Statistical Reasoning Across the TEKS (Grades 6-12)(new)

  8. Mathematics TEXTEAMS Institutes High School • Algebra I: 2000 and Beyond • Geometry: Supporting TEKS and TAKS (new) • Algebra II/Precalculus (separate institutes 02-03) • Rethinking Secondary Mathematics series: -Algebraic and Geometric Modeling -In-depth Secondary Mathematics -Statistics Across the TEKS (spring 2003) (new)

  9. Sample of Resources for Mathematics TEKS Support available through the Math CED/Dana Center Performance Assessments Mathematics Standards in the Classroom, Grades 3-5 and 6-8 (print, CD, web) Algebra I Assessments (print, CD, web) Geometry Assessments (print, CD, web) Algebra II Assessments (coming 02-03) Middle School Proportionality Assessments (coming 02-03)
