MATH PERSPECTIVES
Research
"When teachers stop growing, so do their students."
-Susan Loucks-Horsley
The U.S. Secretary of Education’s Mathematics and Science Initiative was launched in February 2003 to:
- Engage the public in recognizing the need for better mathematics and science education for all children.
- Initiate a campaign to recruit, prepare, train, and retain teachers with strong backgrounds in mathematics and science.
- Develop a research base to improve our knowledge of what boosts student learning in mathematics and science.
