South Western High School Mathematics Department- 11 Teachers

Mission Statement:

The South Western School District is dedicated to providing a continually improving educational environment, through a cooperative effort with the family and the entire community, in which all students are encouraged and expected to achieve their full potential, to express themselves clearly, to think reflectively, and to interact responsibly in preparation for lifelong personal growth.”

 Statement of Need:
 * Business Need **

South Western High School needs an effective 11th grade remediation program for math. Juniors that have scored below proficient on 4sights will be included in the program. The hope is that they will be able to score proficient on the math PSSA's. The ultimate goal is to have 100% of juniors score proficient on the PSSA's, instead of the 60.1% we have now, this program would be one way for that to be possible. The goal for next year would be a 5% increase to 65%.

  Proposed Solution: The proposed solution would be a program that would remediate the juniors that are going to be taking the PSSA's after their first 4sight scores have come back. Need to also take into account performance tracker to see the grades that they acquired in other math courses.
 * Learning Opportunity **


 * Expected Benefits **
 * Better ratings state wide
 * Climate would be better knowing there is a difference being made
 * Prevent state involvement in our school
 * Help math teachers keep their jobs
 * Reach the federal goal for all school districts in the country
 * 100% success means we are touching every student in a positive way
 * All students would be leaving with the math skills to go on to college with
 * No doors would be closing for poor math skills

 The target audience is South Western High School's Junior class. Also the math teachers at the high school would be the ones that would be running the program to try and fix problems that might have started back when the students were in elementary and middle school. This scope might stretch out to a large number of teachers.
 * Audience Analysis **

 I am proposing setting up a math teacher run program during our 5th period at the end of the day. There are going to be two teachers per group so that all questions are being answered. These groups will meet twice a week in small numbers. We will be able to run twelve different groups with the amount of teachers and computers that we have available in the department. The students will be receiving a pass/fail grade of this class and a 1/4 of a credit. There will be a computer component with this course on Study Island. All remediation students will be required to work at least one hour per week outside the classroom. The students will also be working towards their green cards for Junior release. When this project is completed I hope to raise math scores by 5%.
 * Project Design **

 A success would be an improvement at all of South Western's PSSA scores.
 * Project Success Measures **

  This is for the Junior class only. The mathematics department at the high school does not have influence on what the students study in the elementary and middle schools.
 * Out of Scope **

Analysis: Teachers would make $10/hr. for their outside time. ($220) Design: Teachers = $10/hr. ($330) Development= Done in morning meetings (no cost) Implementation= Done during 5th period- coverage pay- ($5,000) Evaluation= Done in morning meetings (no cost)
 * Estimated Project Costs **

The program will run from the end of September until April. Each group of students will meet twice a week.

The goal of this project is to train the math teachers on how to implement a program that would remediate enough Juniors to raise our PSSA math scores up five percentage points from last year. The primary audience would be the 10 math teacher that would need to be trained to run the program for about 150 students. For the delivery of this program I will be doing a blended method, mixing lecture with tutorials done on the computer. I can even make my own short videos that teachers would be able to save and go back to if they needed to look something over again. The students will be selected by their 4sight scores. It will be any students that do not have an IEP who score below a 1350. The Trainee will be able to: · Navigate around a student and teacher edition of Study Island. · Reset individual questions and entire sections. ·<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size-adjust: none; font-size: 7pt; font-stretch: normal; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal;"> Pull reports to track students’ progress. ·<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size-adjust: none; font-size: 7pt; font-stretch: normal; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal;"> Guide their students in the proper removal and return of the laptops to and from the cart. ·<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size-adjust: none; font-size: 7pt; font-stretch: normal; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal;"> Be able to identify the parts of the screen on Study Island for the students and guide them in the proper way to input their answers. ·<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size-adjust: none; font-size: 7pt; font-stretch: normal; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal;"> Select, test, and recommend strategies for multiple choice questions during direct instruction. The trainees will go through a mini test at the end of the session that will determine if they are ready to implement this program or not. For those that are not ready they will have to spend some of their morning meeting times getting extra help from me about the program. The course development will be about 5 hours, and there is no cost for that portion of the program. When the day course runs, the school district will pay $51/hr for the trainer and all others $10/hr to participate. If the course is run during a school day the school district would have to hire substitute teachers at $95 per substitute to cover the classroom teachers. However, there would be no additional compensation for the classroom teachers. If the standards are not met during that time, teachers will have to spend their morning meetings time learning the program. They will need to have a full working knowledge of the program one week after training when the remediation program starts. There is no compensation for the morning meeting time that is spent on getting ready for this program. Teacher will have an outline to look off of for the course. There will be a sort of syllabus that will state what they need to be able to do one their own at the end of the training. The course will be as follows:

The course will be evaluated at the end by having the teacher log onto study island as a student, try a couple of problems. Next teachers will log in as themselves and demonstrate the skills they will need to make the remediation program run smoothly. Fred and me will maintain the learning records, and perform the summative evaluation together. The trainees will have a chance to evaluate the course using a scantrone sheet with room on the back for comments. Their evaluation will be more of a reaction to the course. Two weeks after completing the course and implementing the skills they will take another evaluation focusing on how the material they learned transfers to the job. They will be completing the second evaluation on a Google document. <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';"> Back to Kristin Frederick's Page
