  3. Who are the participants? • Current middle school math teachers who need to earn additional credentialing in order to be highly qualified • Career changers who have appropriate background in math but need a refresher in order to take and pass the CSET exams • Elementary teachers who wish to make the move to middle school • Teachers credentialed in other areas, in order to be more “marketable”

What is the Institute content? • Content is based on the CCTC requirementshttp://www.cset.nesinc.com/PDFs/CS_mathematics_SMR.pdf • Subtest 1: Algebra and Number Theory • Subtest 2: Geometry and Probability and Statistics CCTC requires this content for “subject matter competency” for a Foundational Level Credential in math • Teaching style: combination of problem solving and direct instruction

  5. Structure of the Institutes • 40-hour institutes, one for each of the first two subtests • Instructed by teams: one from CSUSB math faculty and one K-12 math expert • Preferred schedule: 8 hours/week over a period of 5 weeks • Provide materials written by ICMP instructors with content and practice.
