Teachers Development Group
The EMTL project, a collaboration between Teachers Development Group, the Portland State University Department of Mathematics and Statistics and Tacoma Public School, is studying the efficacy of the Mathematics Studio model of professional development using a cluster-randomized research design. The research study, funded by the National Science Foundation, will examine the effects of the Mathematics Studio model on principal and teacher practices and student achievement, and will identify critical elements of the professional development approach related to those outcomes. Horizon Research, Inc. serves as the formative and summative evaluator for the EMTL project.
