General Program Requirements
Proposed MMSP partnership activities must address previously planned supplemental, follow-up, or
evaluation activities to complete the partnerships MMSP grant work. These activities should support the
implementation of previous MMSP course content into standards-based instruction and facilitate
connections between the course(s) and district/school STEM initiatives.
Supplemental, follow-up and evaluation activities proposed should specifically integrate the professional
development with the needs and STEM improvement initiatives of the partnering school district(s).
These MMSP partnership activities may include:
1. creating or updating district/school STEM alignment documents and or instructional materials,
especially to support implementation of the 2011 Mathematics Curriculum Framework;
2. supporting STEM school improvement plans;
3. developing tools to assess teachers' STEM professional development needs to inform their individual
professional development plans; and/or
4. providing instructional leadership training and protocols to facilitate effective site-based supplemental
activities and standards-based instruction incorporating mathematics and science standards and
