UNO’s Dr. Yvelyne Germain-McCarthy headed up a 2008-09 LaSIP project entitled “Meaningful Mathematics through Modeling”. The project worked with 45 participants in teams from grades 4-8 drawn from targeted underperforming schools. The UNO team delivered standards-based and best-practice informed professional development by making use of the Annenberg/CPB Learning Math course components for Numbers and Number Relations, as well as Algebra.
