Integrating Mathematics and Science through Technology (IMaST) Project
This year, 7th and 8th grade science and mathematics classrooms at Mulholland MS are participating in an exciting Los Angeles Unified School District learning study that includes using wireless laptop computers, electronic presentation boards and tools, and Internet-based resources to promote student achievement in algebra.
These classroom technologies have been placed at Mulholland MS as part of the LAUSD Integrating Mathematics and Science through Technology (IMaST) project - a program supported by a No Child Left Behind (NCLB) grant. The purpose of the program is to study the impact that classroom use of technology will have on student achievement in algebra.
Mathematics and science classrooms at nine middle schools across LAUSD were selected for the program. Each of the nine schools has been assigned a lead coach to work with the on-site coaches and teachers at each school.
To help students succeed in their schoolwork, 7th and 8th grade students at Mulholland MS will have access to many exciting computer and Internet-based resources to reinforce learning in the classroom and at home. In addition, every teacher and student at Mulholland MS will have an E-mail account for communication with each other and with experts in the field.
With the introduction of this equipment into their classrooms, teachers will be exploring and implementing new ways tomake school more exciting and meaningful for your child. We hope you will join us in our enthusiasm for this project and support our efforts to increase your child’s success in school.
