- Abstract/Description
- The TN Math Coaching Project, funded by the Institute of Education Sciences, is a partnership between the Tennessee Department of Education (TDOE) and the University of Pittsburgh aimed at improving the in-service training of Grades 3–8 mathematics teachers as a route to improving the math achievement of all Tennessee students. University of Pittsburgh researchers from the Learning Research & Development Center (LRDC) partnered with scholar practitioners from the IFL, an outreach division of LRDC that provides professional development grounded in research-based practices. Our work had two primary goals. First, we tested and iteratively refined a model for mathematics instructional coaching that is designed to be a resource for schools and districts throughout the state as they support the transition to teaching that is aligned with rigorous, college-and-career ready mathematics standards. Second, we sought to catalyze a network of highly trained coaches that can serve as instructional leaders throughout the state.
