FROM THE DIRECTORIn 2015-16, we began to gear up in earnest for our 50th anniversary celebration. We know that it is quite a testament to the foresight and continuous support of regional superintendents, as well as the work of the MathScience Innovation Center, to sustain this important partnership for 50 years. Founded under Title III of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965, the MSiC is the oldest Title III project still in full operation in Virginia and the only one in the country continually funded locally after 1969.

As we move into our celebratory year, we would like to thank the founding superintendents in Chesterfield, Hanover, Henrico, Goochland, Powhatan, and the city of Richmond for their vision, as well as the current superintendents of the school divisions who comprise our Educational Consortium (Chesterfield, Colonial Heights, Dinwiddie, Goochland, Hanover, Henrico, Hopewell, King William, Petersburg, Powhatan, Prince George, and the city of Richmond) for holding onto the vision.

This year, we are continuing with our curriculum revisions and updates, adding new courses and programs K-12, and deepening our partnerships with higher education, businesses, and community organizations. We are particularly excited about the updates to the Metro Richmond STEM Fair (which you can read about on pages 8-9).

In addition to our curriculum work including cyber security, chemistry, Little Innovators Parent/Child program, we also expanded our work in mathematics by adding an elementary and middle school pre-algebra course to our high school Tapestry of Algebra course, as well as a Principal/Teacher Leader Mathematics Institute to our math offerings (read more about this on pages 6-7). This vertical alignment of courses provides much needed content and pedagogical information for teachers and principals around the development of algebraic concepts from elementary through secondary school and highlights the teaching and learning conditions that should be in place to maximize students success in mathematics.

We invite you to visit the Center, subscribe to our email list, interact with us through social media, and get involved in any way you can. Here’s to an awesome 50 years of service.

The MathScience Innovation Center provides a wealth of resources to both students and staff of Colonial Heights Public Schools. Providing curricular support that aligns with the Virginia Standards of Learning allows teachers to integrate MSiC programs directly into instructional plans through lessons at the Center, MSiC teachers presenting lessons at the schools, virtual lessons, Saturday and summer programs, and professional development opportunities for teachers. The hands-on experiences provided through participation with the MathScience Innovation Center bring instruction to life for our students, engages them in the educational process, and results in students extending their learning. In addition to presentation of lessons and professional development, the MathScience Innovation Center provides important consultative services to instructional staff in the division. Having the availability to tap into the expertise of MSiC staff for projects such as Grade-Level Cross-Curricular STEM projects and the Agri-Project enhance our ability to plan and implement additional learning opportunities for our students. The partnership between Colonial Heights Public Schools and MSiC is one that has evolved over time and has resulted in great educational benefit for our students and staff.

The MSiC Foundation Board is working hard to get the word out as to who we are, what we do, and why it is important. To this end, we have on-boarded several dynamic business and community leaders over the past year as we strive to support the Center in bringing added value to the lives of students and teachers in the region.

Our goals are to increase the level of exposure and philanthropic support in service of the Center’s dynamic and highly valued programs. We look forward to being a part of the development of students’ interests and skills in the STEM fields, thus increasing their academic and career readiness. Learning can be fun, engaging, and relevant, and we aim to help make it so!

WEEKDAY SERVICES

The MSiC houses nine uniquely-designed classrooms which are used to teach specialized lessons during the school year. For two to three hours, students and their teachers engage in lessons focused on fractal geometry, robotics, environmental sustainability, weather, energy, space science, biology, and much more. In addition to these uniquely-designed rooms, the MSiC has four virtual booths which are used to broadcast lessons into multiple classrooms around the region simultaneously. Virtual lessons cover a variety of topics in math and science, ranging from function tables & multiplication, geometry & measurement, life science, nanoscience, cartography, atomic structure, and more. In addition to our Center and Virtual lessons, we also have more than 100 K-12 lessons that are taught directly in classrooms across the region. All of our lessons are SOL based with a strong hands-on, inquiry-based core. These lessons, like all of our Center and Virtual lessons, are designed to meet current and future educational and career demands for students.

STEM in Focus: Tapping the Sun’s Potential (Virtual Lesson)MSiC virtual lessons for K-12 classroom allow teachers to connect with the Center and with classrooms in multiple school divisions. Virtual lessons allow the exchange of ideas and experiences through discussion, data comparisons, and collaborative analyses focused on STEM content. The MSiC uses both synchronous and asynchronous models for virtual lessons. The asynchronous model, in particular, allows classroom teachers to work at their own pace while emphasizing content knowledge and more in-depth work with their students.

In the Virtual Lesson, Tapping the Sun’s Potential, MSiC educators work with secondary classroom teachers as their students explore the topic of wind energy. In this lesson, students are challenged to design windmill blades which maximize the electricity produced from a household fan. After designing and building their windmills, students test them using a wind turbine kit provided by the MSiC. During the lesson, the MSiC educators interact with the students and their teachers delving into students’ design processes and their plans for increasing the effectiveness of their windmills. A highlight for the MSiC educators is the opportunity to hear how the classroom teachers engaged the students, reinforcing principles of the scientific method and challenging students to improve their designs.

STEM in Focus: Engineering and Manufacturing STEM in Sports and RIR Track TakeoverOn March 25, 2016, over 300 students from Henrico County and Richmond City public schools gathered for the RVA STEM Education in Sports Event at VCU’s Stuart C. Siegel Center and new Basketball Development Center. Students were exposed to some of the latest devices and technologies used to train and support athletes in a variety of sports. After a quick welcome, students broke off into small groups to test their batting swing, analyze their vertical jumps, examine body sensors, investigate aerodynamics and speed, explore the “smart” materials behind the equipment, and much more.

This event highlighted the science, technology, engineering, and mathematics involved in a large variety of athletics. Students were able to test the products and see how they compared to other athletes. Discussions were generated at each station involving how the equipment works, possible modifications for future products, and how athletes benefit from each. This event was a partnership with the VCU Center for Sports Leadership, MathScience Innovation Center, Henrico County Public Schools, Richmond City Public Schools, Arena Racing USA, Richmond International Raceway, and the Science Museum of Virginia with support from local business sponsors and sports teams. On April 24, 2016, the MathScience Innovation Center returned to Richmond International Raceway’s Track Takeover before the Toyota Owners 400 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race. Displays around the track focused on educational and interactive components appealing to fans of all levels and ages allowing them to see and touch the sport, gaining a unique perspective into the “behind the scenes” aspect of NASCAR. MSiC educators interacted with race fans on the track as they rounded turn 2 to explore aerodynamics, 3D printing, modeling, speed, track banking and more. To see the wonder on children and adult faces was priceless! Teachers came and talked about how they could do something similar in their own classes.

Professional DevelopmentWorking with teachers through professional development programming is a vital part of our STEM education efforts. Using real-world contexts and robust inquiry-based activities, we support teachers to deepen their content knowledge and enhance their pedagogical practice, as well as provide opportunities to collaborate with peers and field professionals. As a result, enhanced teaching practice leads to greater student engagement and learning outcome successes in the classroom.

An annual signature event is our K-12 Educator Conference, held for two days in June. The theme of this year’s conference was Deeper Learning in the 21st Century Classroom. Our featured keynote, Dr. Dan Rothstein, Co-Director of the Right Question Institute, introduced us to the Question Formulation Technique, a technique used across the nation as a means of helping students formulate and analyze their own questions in order to change the dynamics of learning to a more student focused inquiry model.

STEM in Focus: Principal/Teacher Leader InstitutePrincipals and teacher leaders recently gathered at the MathScience Innovation Center to delve into mathematics for two days to consider the characteristics of a highly effective classroom, engage in rich mathematical tasks and create an action plan that would put their schools on the right track to improve student achievement. Seven divisions and 20 elementary and middle schools were represented at the institute sponsored by the Region 1 educators group and hosted by the MathScience Innovation Center.

Principals and teacher leaders discussed mathematical communication, reasoning and proof, representation, and problem solving in K-12 classrooms. During the institute, teachers and principals also engaged in math tasks to better understand the more rigorous Standards of Learning and to have first-hand knowledge of the kinds of tasks with which students are faced. Teams discussed issues related to implementation and the support needed by teachers to increase rigor and close instructional gaps. Exploration of the following questions guided their work:

• What does good mathematics instruction look like? • What supports are needed? • What is the connection between high quality mathematics instruction and student performance? • How can school-based mathematics leaders/Mathematics Specialists improve instruction and student

learning in classrooms?

Quotes from participants:

“One thing I valued from this experience was TIME to have meaningful discussion about mathematics with my administrator.” “I valued the opportunity to plan and think about how to implement best practices into math instructional programming with a teacher leader and other colleagues.”

“Keep providing these for us…I think it is worth the drive from Shen Valley!”

“This was a great workshop. There are a plethora of resources to use with staff and teachers to ensure best practices in math are occurring in the classroom.”

The successes shared during the institute were encouraging. All of the teams reported a greater understanding of their students, teachers and the mathematics program at their schools. The creation of an action plan to examine mathematics instruction invigorated educators to “stay the course“ of improving student achievement and closing the gap through purposeful planning and mathematics leadership!

Metro Richmond STEM FairThe Metro Richmond STEM Fair (MRSF) is Central Virginia’s regional qualifying science fair for the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair (Intel ISEF) and the Broadcom MASTERS (Math, Applied Science, Technology & Engineering for Rising Stars) competition. The MRSF affords students in grades 7-12 an opportunity to hone their research, presentation, and communication skills during a two-level, highly competitive juried fair. As a result of their participation, many students earn internships, monetary awards, and scholarships that enable them to pursue STEM ideas, coursework, and careers. Clover Hill High School, located in Chesterfield County, was the site for the March 19, 2016 Metro Richmond STEM Fair.

We have a long tradition (more than 2 decades) of providing students in Central Virginia with a place to share their research with scientists, mathematicians, engineers, technologists, and business leaders. Under her direction, Ms. Vonita Giddings has continued this work and implemented workshops which provide opportunities for the public to participate in the STEM Fair, as well. This year, workshops were provided by VCU’s Spit for Science Team, Draper Aden Associates: Aerial Series, and MSiC. We also had a surgical robot naming contest for the $2 million state-of-the-art transplantation instrument at the STEM Fair through our partnership with Hume-Lee Transplant Center. This contest was designed to familiarize students with organ transplantatoin and the various content and career fields needed in operating rooms.

The contest generated more than 700 entries from students in the Metro Richmond area. Haasita Akkala and Shriya Chemudupati, two students at Moody Middle School, submitted the name, HARPER (Helpful Awesome Resourceful Protective Engineered Robot), and their entry was selected! We are looking forward to more exciting events such as this to highlight for students the career fields needed in the community.
