Checkpoint: MMSTLC Grant Goals
The MMSTLC Grant sets long and short term goals for:
Mathematics and Science Centers
Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) Faculty
Local School Districts
Teachers
Students

3. 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.

4. Reviewing Our Progress
Checkpoint: Personal Professional Development Plan
Creation of a plan to address:
Short Term and Long Term Professional Goals
Goals for Content Issues, Process Skills, and Technical Skills
Professional Development Log
Creation of Curriculum Vita

5. Reviewing Our Progress
Checkpoint: School Level Goals
STEPS to SUCCESS Guidelines:
Articulated Curriculum
Aligned Instructional Materials
Consistent Instructional Practices
Adequate Professional Development
Effective Assessment System
Supportive Policies and Procedures

6. Reviewing Our Progress
Checkpoint: Team Action Plan
Aligned to support:
MMSTLC Grant Goals
School Level Goals
Teacher Leader Goals

7. Reviewing Our Progress
Review your team action plan in light of the MMSTLC Logic Model. Does your action plan support the grant goals for all partners? What adjustments do you need to make for your action plan to ensure all partners benefit from this project?
At the Summer Academy, your team identified potential needs in your school as they relate to the Steps for Success. How have you addressed, or plan to address these issues?
In reviewing the professional development plan for your teacher leaders, reflect on the steps taken so far toward implementing this plan? How has the team supported the teacher leader? Are there additional actions that need to be taken?

8. Celebrating Our Progress
Using insights from the reflection exercise above:
Define six (6) successes that you and/or your team has had since the beginning of the program.
Define six (6) goals that you and/or your team would like to accomplish between now and this summer.
Write these successes and goals on the dodecahedron, illustrating as desired.
Cut out and construct the dodecahedron.

9. Sharing Our Progress
“Applause is a celebration, not only of the actors, but also of the audience. It constitutes a shared moment of delight.”
- John Charles Polanyi

10. Evaluating Our Progress
Think back to the beginning of this program in terms of the Leadership Components and thoughtfully complete the assessment.
