Organizational Change in an Institution of Higher Education: Improving K-20 Math and Science Education through a University-School Partnership

Description

In the spring of 2005, SCALE's Research and Evaluation team began conducting a set of IHE case studies to determine (a) whether positive and sustainable improvements are underway to facilitate the provision of high-quality professional learning opportunities in math and science to pre- and in-service K-12 teachers by STEM and education faculty and the IHEs (as organizations), and (b) whether these improvements can be attributed, at least in part, to SCALE implementation. This case study report presents an initial description and analysis of institutional change efforts underway at one of SCALE's IHE partners, California State University, Dominguez Hills (CSUDH).
