STEM Activities

CAIQR sets out to develop projects in quest of increasing the STEM teaching capacity of districts and high schools. Plans include to:

  • work with various Mathematics Bridge courses: Discrete Mathematics Pre-Collegiate [DMPC], Discrete Mathematics Problem Solving [DMPS], Transition to Quantitative Reasoning [TQR], Quantitative Reasoning with Advanced Mathematical Topics [QRAT], Mathematical Reasoning with Connections [MRWC], Transition to College Mathematics and Statistics [TCMS], Transition to College Level Mathematics [TCLM], and CourseKata Statistics and Data Science
  • increase number of in-service teacher to acquire Supplementary Authorization in Computer Science ,
  • offer professional development sessions at various levels (early, elementary, middle, and high), and
  • work with MSTI Directors and EAP Coordinators in working with districts to assure partnership and continuance of building STEM teaching capacity

Projects

The following projects in mathematics and science were developed by CSU faculty members through financial support awarded by CAIQR. CSU faculty members are able to use them free of charge for trainings or professional development. For more information about any specific project, please contact the Project Coordinator associated with the project.
