Being Responsive to Partnership Need While Maintaining Fidelity of Implementation
Abstract
"This session describes three implementation adjustments experienced during the life of the College Ready in Mathematics and Physics Partnership. In preparation for the Common Core State Standards, all curriculum in the Mathematics Master Teacher sequence has been aligned to CCSSM since the initial draft was released. In the Physics Master Teacher sequence, two primary changes were made based on partner need: the development of curriculum wrappers for workshop activities and a shift to primarily utilizing grade-band groups. A third adjustment has been the expansion of training in developing and facilitating Professional Learning Communities. This session will explicate data that indicated these adjustments were merited, as well as how changes have enhanced the implementation of College Ready constructs across the Partnership."
