as comprehensive teacher training modules with
funding from the Texas Education Agency and the Texas Higher Education
Coordinating Board. The six modules effectively assist teachers in
developing a deeper understanding of the underlying concepts that support
the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS) and help teachers
develop the pedagogical tools necessary to provide their students the
opportunity to meet Texas’ challenging state content and student
performance standards. These six modules also support related
TExES Mathematics Competencies. The rigor of these modules is of
sufficient nature as to allow participating teachers who have not yet met
the requirements of a “highly qualified” teacher, as defined by the United
States NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND ACT of 2001 (NCLB), to progress towards this
goal.
