State of the StateOregon Math Leader Conference 2014

Strategic Initiatives Update

• Connecting the World to Work– Regional STEM Hub Grantees

• Six regional hubs awarded grants

– STEM, STEAM and/or CTE Program and Activity Grant• 87 proposals, 16 awardees

• Network of Quality of Teaching and Learning– Series of 3 regional PLT conferences in fall, winter, and

spring during 2013-14 school year– District grants to support Educator Effectiveness and

Common Core implementation

Looking forward to 2014-15 PLT CONFERENCES

• Professional Learning Team Conferences– First day general sessions, keynote speakers– Second day, series of six break out sessions (Math, ELA,

Science, ELP/ELL, Ed. Effectiveness [SLG, IRR])

• Goal to establish a learning community of 200-300 math leaders representing every school district– Support conversations and activities throughout the year

(Oregon Portal if possible)– Train an expert group of 20-30 educators to provide

expertise in finding, evaluating, and sharing instructional materials

Looking forward to 2014-15 INSTRUCTIONAL MATERIALS

• Facilitated Independent Reviews– Piloted regional reviews in SOESD and Hillsboro SD– One day PD training on how to use Oregon Instructional

Material Review Toolkit (OR-IMET) followed by three days of review (~2 programs per day)

– Fall 2014 – intend to share OR-IMET, PD modules, and results from regional reviews

• Revise IM statues (ORS 337) and rules (OAR 581-11)• Participate in a possible multi-state collaborative to

develop open education (OER) courses in CCSS Math and ELA

Looking forward to 2014-15 TITLE IIB (Math & Science Partnerships)

• Continued support of four STEM Partnerships– Enter third year of three year grant– Transition to be supported by regional STEM hubs

• Release RFP for 2014-17– Anticipated release first week of August– Submit proposals Oct. 1 for funding in November 2014– WebEx Mid-August to go over expectations

Areas of Focus for 2014-15

• TARGET 1: Supporting quality instructional materials– Help find, share, evaluate, modify and create quality

materials

• TARGET 2: Supporting quality instruction and learning– Implementation of Instructional best practices found in

NCTM: Principles to Action

• TARGET 3: Support quality assessments & feedback– Help transition to Smarter Balanced, and best practices

using both summative and formative data

Aligning to Focus Areas TITLE IIB (Math & Science Partnerships)

• OPTION 1– Development of professional development opportunities

to find, evaluate, share and modify quality instructional materials in math and/or science (Target 1 & 3)

– All materials will be shared state-wide under open license (e.g. creative commons)

• OPTION 2– Development of professional development opportunities

to help develop more instructional leaders in math and/or science (Target 2)

Aligning to Focus Areas INSTRUCTIONAL MATERIALS• Share resources and tools to support independent review of

materials (Target 1)– Start with materials to evaluate basal programs– Optional ODE support of independent reviews in 2014-15

• PD Supporting understanding of alignment to CCSS Math (Target 1, 2, & 3)– (1) Focus, (2) Coherence, (3) Rigor [application, conceptual understanding,

procedural fluency], (4) Math Practices– Develop PD to support the evaluation of supplemental resources (e.g. tasks,

lessons, units)

• Share and disseminate results of independent reviews (Target 1)• Participate in development of multi-state OER resources (Target 1)
