AAAS - Project 2061 - 2061 Connections - NSDL Science Literacy Maps
How do instruction, curriculum, and professional development influence middle grades students’ algebra learning? Project 2061, in collaboration with the University of Delaware and Texas A&M University, investigated this question as part of an Interagency Education Research Initiative (IERI) project to study the impact of professional development and curriculum materials on instruction and student achievement for specific learning goals in middle school mathematics.
focused all aspects of the study on a single clearly defined learning goal for grades 7 and 8:
Symbolic equations can be used to summarize how the quantity of something changes over time or in response to other changes.
- using four different curricula.
Chartle.net - interactive charts online!

Discusses the differences in how you read differnt kinds of text with a focus on the processes you use when reading mathematics text.
