Content and Communications Institute

Mathematical Institute for Paraprofessionals Program:

Augsburg College, and Minneapolis, St. Paul, and Roseville Public Schools were awarded a grant from the Minnesota Higher Education Services Office.  This two-year grant focuses on professional development for paraprofessionals in each district.  Paraprofessionals received two weeks of professional development in K-6 mathematics content and problem solving during the summer.  In late summer and fall, paraprofessionals received additional training in teaching assessment and leadership development.  Paraprofessionals conduct an "action research" project at their school site as part of their professional development program and present their findings in April to Institute participants.  Dr. Jeanine Gregiore, program evaluatorfor the grant, works closely with Dr. Larry Copes and Dr. Linda Stevens, Education Department, to develop the Institute Program, recruit participants, coordinate and teach follow-up comment sessions, and follow-up with participants. This is the fifth year of this grant and Institute.
