NCTM Invites Proposals for PreK-8 Pre-service Teacher Action Research Grant
The National Council of Teachers of Mathematics is inviting proposals from pre-K teachers to support a collaborative action research project by university faculty, pre-service teachers, and classroom teachers seeking to improve their understanding of mathematics in Pre-Kâ8 classrooms.
Primary emphasis will be placed on collaboration among a team of researchers consisting of university, elementary/middle school teachers, and pre-service teachers from the undergraduate ranks. The action research should be designed, implemented, and completed with a focus on enhancing the teaching and/or learning of mathematics in Grades Pre-Kâ8.
One grant of up to $3,000 will be awarded. Grant funds should be used to support project expenses to plan and carry out the action research.
The applicant must be a current full individual or e-member of NCTM or must teach at a school with a current NCTM Pre-Kâ8 school membership. The participating pre-service teacher(s) must be in an initial licensure/certification program at the undergraduate level and, at some point during the term of the grant, must be engaged in some form of practicum experience or student teaching.
For complete program guidelines and application instructions, see the NCTM website.
DEADLINE: MAY 6, 2016
