Three mathematical sciences departments at Rice University, in partnership with Aldine and Houston Independent School Districts, are providing the Mathematics Leadership Institute (MLI) for high school mathematics teachers in the Houston area. MLI is a collaboration among two ethnically diverse school districts, the Departments of Mathematics (MATH), Computational and Applied Mathematics (CAAM), and Statistics (STAT) at Rice University and the Rice University School Mathematics Project (RUSMP).
The MLI is developing a cadre of 80 lead teachers in mathematics and expanding teachers' knowledge in each of the important mathematics strands that form the core of the high school mathematics curriculum.
The Principal Investigator of The Rice University Mathematics Leadership Institute is John Polking.
More information can be
found on a separate web site created by this project: http:// nsfmli.rice.edu/ .
This site was created to enhance communication and collaboration
between partners within the Mathematics Leadership Institute
project as well as to inform the public of the efforts of the Math
and Science Partnership Program. While selected documents in the
library and resources sections have been made available
to the public, only logged in members of the
The Rice University Mathematics Leadership Institute project can post comments,
participate or read posts in the Working Groups, or see the interactive
Calendar.
