Our Vision

The Math TLC's vision is of a highly qualified, culturally competent, and pedagogically effective cadre of Colorado and Wyoming mathematics teachers, local teacher-leaders, and university teacher-educators.

Opportunity for Secondary Math Teachers

The Math TLC is pleased to offer opportunities for current math teachers to participate in the Master’s in Math for Secondary Teachers degree program for secondary teachers as well as a Teacher Leadership Program for teachers and district personnel in grades 4-12.

Our jointly-offered programs build on a strong record of successful programs and engaged faculty at the Univ. of Northern Colorado and the Univ. of Wyoming.

The 19 teachers in Cohort 1 of the master's program completed their first 3 math courses during a successful six-week summer session from June 22 - July 30, 2009.

What is the Math TLC?

Math TLC is a partnership to improve mathematics in middle, secondary and post secondary education in the north Rocky Mountains region. Key to this goal is working with teachers and districts to retain new and continuing teachers in the field and develop leadership capacity.

The primary purpose of the Math TLC is to develop and implement the Master's degree in Secondary Mathematics and the Teacher Leadership Program. Along the way, we're researching the impact of the initiative on project members, from teacher-educators to the teacher-participants and their students' achievement in mathematics.
