What is GK-12

PIMSE Partnership Implementing Math and Science Education

PIMSE Expectations 1

• Develop a classroom routine that incorporates ASSISTment and the fellows teaching. This will be highly personalized.– Example: Fellow works with students who do not demonstrate

understanding of the learning goals.– Example: Fellows work with students who do demonstrate

understanding of the learning goals.– Example: Fellows teach a lesson in response to data collected that

hour or for homework. • Each team of teacher and fellow will determine

which classes he or she will work with on a regular basis.

PIMSE Expectations 2

• Teachers and Fellows will meet to plan the lesson for the day. Either that morning or a previous day.

• Fellows will report on the meeting and the lesson in a weekly log.

• Teachers will observe the fellows teaching once a month to help them reflect on their teaching.

• Twice in the year there will be a videotaped formal observation.

• Fellow will give an interactive presentation of their work to the students.

PIMSE Expectations 3

• Teachers will learn from their fellow how to use technology beyond ASSISTment.– Google Docs– Electronic white Boards– Face Book? ASSISTment group?– Who knows what else

• Students will be inspired to study technology and other STEM areas.

• Teachers will be paid in chunks of work and by hourly time.

• Examples of Chunks are-sing in do NOT invoice.– Meetings/Workshops

Study

• Ask not what ASSISTments can do for you but what you can do for ASSISTments. –Do you want to be able to prove to

administrators and parents that what you are doing is beneficial–Do you want your name on a publication?
