The University of Houston Middle School Mathematics Project developed the Middle School Mathematics Training Materials 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.
