Team Goal Setting Karen Meyers, Director and Mary Ann Sheline, Grants Administrator Grand Valley State University

IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGIES INTERMEDIATE OUTCOMES ASSUMPTIONS/RATIONALE: The Federal MSP program supports improved student achievement in mathematics and science through enhanced training for math / science teachers, with major involvement of STEM faculty in the improvement effort. The Michigan MSP program has identified a need for teacher leaders to provide sustainable site-based professional development. IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGIES INTERMEDIATE OUTCOMES LONG-TERM GOALS RESOURCES - SVSU-GVSU Teacher Leader Projects - UM Instructional Resources - Statewide STEM Faculty Expertise - M/S Centers Infrastructure - MSP Grant Professional development for math / science center staff on recruiting, supporting, training, and sustaining TSLs Teacher Leaders . . . - Increased math / science content / pedagogical skills / knowledge - Improved PD facilitation skills - Increased knowledge of connections between curriculum, instruction, assessment, and data use - Work jointly with administrator to improve math / science - Recognized as leaders in math / science - Provide instructional leadership through PD Math/Science Centers… - Recruited as planned - Statewide network of TSLs operating as intended 1. Cadre of TSLs w/skills / knowledge to help improve teaching / learning of math / science in targeted high needs schools Individualized, data-driven needs assessments for participating high-needs buildings, districts, and TSLs. M/S Center staff / teams -Have knowledge / skills to recruit, develop, support, and sustain TSLs and administrators - Increased / enhanced MSC partnerships with IHE, LEAs, business, non-profits, etc. 2. Working relationships between TSLs and building administrators, w/support of M/S Centers & STEM Faculty Development of learning communities at statewide (TSLs), regional (MSCs), and local (building / district) levels. NEEDS - Capacity in M/S Centers to support teacher leaders and high needs schools inadequate - Current PD is inadequate to significantly impact teaching & learning - School-based capacity to serve high needs schools inadequate Development of instructional resources based on content and effective pedagogy. Students . . . -Increased opportunities to learn -Improved learning and deepened understanding of math / science -Improved attitudes towards, interest in mathematics / science Immersion in leadership, inquiry, and professional community during summer academy and school year programming. 3. Improve math / science learning of students in targeted high needs schools Administrators . . . - Improved ability to recognize / support high quality math/science education - Develop working relationship with TL to improve math / science On-going training in leadership and inquiry teaching / learning through released time (sabbatical) options for PD implementation. STEM Faculty - Seek to increase their knowledge and insights in content, pedagogy, and LEA needs by collaborating with middle grades’ colleagues. - Sharing content / pedagogical knowledge with TSLs, LEAs, and M/S Centers - IHE STEM adapting instructional practices in their own classrooms 4. M/S Centers with increased capacity to sustain support for high needs schools Intentional inclusion of STEM faculty at all levels of TSL professional development. Extended Teams . . . - Increased content / pedagogical knowledge / skills; facilitation skills in selected topics / practices - Increased understanding of personal instructional practices Online PD, coaching, networking, conferencing, and resource dissemination. Technical assistance (consulting, advising, tutoring, etc.) by Collaborative Team to sites. PROGRAM LOGIC MODEL MICHIGAN STATE-WIDE MSP—TEACHER LEADERS FOR HIGH NEEDS SCHOOLS OUTPUTS - Instructional Resources - Toolkits - Needs assessments - Electronic connections / network
