CSMP

The CSMP provides classroom teachers with a variety of professional learning opportunities such as workshops, leadership institutes, and in-services designed by teacher leaders and faculty content specialists to improve instruction for all learners.  Participants engage in research and use research-based strategies to improve their practice in the teaching of reading, writing, literature, foreign language, mathematics, science, history, international studies, physical and health education, and the arts.  For a description of the specific programs offered by each project, click on the project's name in the box on the right.
