One of our main goals of the ESP is to develop a community of mathematicians and scientists among the Emerging Scholars students. The students in our program work together to solve difficult course problems, develop friendships based on common academic interests and inspire each other to maintain a high level of commitment to excellence. Application Process To be invited into the program, students must have high academic potential and be committed to excellence have strong interest in the mathematics and science be ready to take calculus or chemistry The ESP Staff works closely with Freshman Admissions to identify select students admitted to the Colleges of Natural Sciences, Engineering and Business Administration. Admissions provides ESP data submitted by a UT freshmen applicant. Incoming freshmen demonstrating exceptional motivation and persistence in their high school experiences are mailed a letter of nomination. Goals ESP is an innovative, award-winning program designed to give capable students the best possible chance to excel in critical freshmen gate-keeping courses.

An extraordinary contemporary example is the Human Genome Project, which would have taken years-if not decades-longer to map if researchers within academia, private companies, and individuals from around the world had not shared information. Fostering collaboration and interconnectedness is particularly important for educational institutions, as we all have similar goals that can't be achieved without one another. For independent schools (private, nonprofit schools that are governed by boards of trustees), connections to the larger world take many shapes. Thousands ofindependent school students work with community groups each year, offering service and enthusiasm, and gaining knowledge and understanding. Service then becomes woven into the curriculum, creating opportunities to connect academic material with meaningful, reallife experiences.

Project CHILD and DWoK Collaboration Initiative Grant #99-099 Final Report to the Knight Foundation Submitted by Institute for School Innovation August 15, 2000 This collaborative project was very successful in laying the groundwork for developing ongoing connections between Project CHILD (Computers Helping Instruction and Learning Development) and DWoK (Different Ways of Knowing). The final report from the on-site coach and supporting documents also highlight the positive impact on children’s learning. This report will focus on the degree to which the anticipated outcomes in our proposal were achieved. 1. Determine to what extent CHILD and DWoK might complement one another in the classroom. We found that the classroom management strategies in Project CHILD were very effective in helping increase on-task behavior of students engaged in the DWoK learning modules. The on-site coach reported that “the remarkable turnaround in classroom behavior was extreme They went from students with negligible cooperative skills to a well oiled machine of cooperation and learning.” As a result of the collaborative learning environment, teachers felt that the students gained deeper understanding through the DWoK activities, with better academic outcomes reported.

Foreword by Susan Wally Preface: A Message from the Conference Sponsors Acknowledgements Framing the Debate ... About the Series: Perspectives in Public Policy Page 8 of 16 Five Key Issues: Equity Why is K-16 Collaboration Essential to Educational Equity? By Kati Haycock The Education Trust At every level of American educationelementary, secondary and postsecondaryminority and low-income youngsters are performing below their more advantaged counterparts. These students enter school somewhat behind other students and the gaps that separate them grow as they progress through the grades. By the end of high school, African-American, Latino and poor white youngsters have skills about the same as those of other youngsters at the end of middle school. Not surprisingly, fewer of these students enter college, more require expensive and time-consuming remediation, and disproportionately few graduate from college. Indeed, college completion rates among African-American and Latino young people are less than half of those among white young people, and young people of all races from high-income homes are nearly seven times as likely to graduate from college as young people from low-income homes. Regardless of one's vantage pointfrom higher education looking downward, from K-12 education looking upward, or from policymakers looking at bothit is almost immediately obvious that the problems in one sector cannot be solved without the cooperation of the other sector. Colleges and universities may want to increase the number of minorities entering the freshman year or to decrease the number of such students requiring remediation, for example, but meeting that goal is largely beyond their control. If the K-12 system doesn't produce more well-prepared minority graduates, the most that higher education can do is re-label the problem or move it around (push remedial courses from four-year to two-year colleges, for example). Likewise, the success of K-12's efforts to improve achievement and close gaps between groups is hugely dependent upon the quality and quantity of teachers produced by higher education.

School Arts October 01, 1995 A first grade teacher approached me with an interesting request. "Can we think of an art lesson that will reinforce the concept of patterns which the students are studying in math?" The music teacher was asked a similar question. As a result, the classroom teacher and the art, music, math and reading specialists collaborated on a project that reinforced the concept of patterns in their disciplines. Patterns in Art In the artroom, I introduced the students to the book Hide and Snake by Keith Baker. In this book, a brightly colored, patterned snake challenges readers to a game of hide and seek as it hides among familiar objects. The objects also are covered with brightly colored patternssome quite similar to the snake's patterns. This book is fun for young readers. It teaches them about patterns and increases visual discrimination as they begin to notice differences among the patterns. After studying the patterns on the snake and the objects, I had

Specifically, CSUDH will be improving the way students are prepared for the challenges of a math and science teaching career in an urban district. Collaborating with the LAUSD, local community colleges and business partners, the university anticipates providing highly qualified mathematics and science teachers who will be better equipped to increase student achievement. At the same time, the intent is to close the achievement gap for poor, minority and limited English proficient students in the urban area. -more- CSUDH is seeing more incoming freshman and Braun and Krinsky see the opportunity of actively recruiting those with calculus and pre-calculus skills and those with a strong interest in science. Through the grant, these students will be able to receive stipends for books and other supplies. The hope is to get them prepared more swiftly and effectively.

The teacher placed two Hershey's¨ chocolate bars, each composed of 12 little sections, on the middle person's desk in each group. The students exchanged looks of glee. Were they supposed to eat the chocolate bars? Surely the chocolate had nothing to do with math. But because of the chocolate bars, these students at Howard Perrin Elementary School in Benton, Arkansas, went home that day with a better understanding of proportional reasoning and unitizing.

Stephen Marble, SEDL program manager, Program for the Improvement of Teaching and Learning Marble says the first meeting also helped define the minority teacher shortage as a regional problem. Educators who had been seeing the shortage as a problem particular to their college or their teacher education program were able to view the problem in a broader scope and find out what resources had been developed and what solutions were being tried at other institutions in the Southwest. Participants also shared how they and their institutions would help in the diversification of the science and mathematics teaching workforce in their particular region. Commitments ranged from using distance learning and grow-your-own teacher preparation programs to creating more teacher preparation partnerships with organizations like the National Science Foundation and promoting nontraditional certification programs (such as the Teacher Cadet programs).
