Mathematics Teacher Education Partnership (MTEP 2.0)

The Mathematics Teacher Education Partnership (MTEP) is a networked improvement community (NIC) of secondary mathematics teacher preparation programs across the country – working collaboratively to redesign secondary mathematics teacher preparation programs based on its Updated Guiding Principles for Secondary Mathematics Teacher Preparation and the Standards for Preparing Teachers of Mathematics.

First organized in 2011, MTEP has produced a substantial body of knowledge addressing common problems of practice in secondary mathematics teacher preparation.

Mathematics of Doing, Understanding, Learning, and Educating for Secondary Schools (MODULE(S2))

Our MODULE(S2) team has created free classroom materials for Algebra, Geometry, Modeling, and Statistics through an NSF-sponsored project called MODULE(S2): modules2.com. Our materials are written in the active-learning, discussion-based format that we all want our teacher candidates to use with their future students. We focus on pre-service teachers at the secondary level (grades 6-12), helping them to develop mathematical knowledge for teaching in their upper-level content courses. Our materials have been used by 60+ faculty at 50+ universities in the US and Canada who have taught 1000+ prospective teachers and university students in university mathematics courses. Our project began through the work of the Mathematics Teacher Education Partnership (MTE-P), which seeks to create a gold standard for the preparation of secondary mathematics teachers across its over 90 member universities.
