The Learning Results standards, adopted in 1996 by the State Legislature and Department of Education, require Maine high school graduates to have various skills in eight main areas, including English and language arts, science and technology, health and physical education, mathematics and social studies.
“There are teachers who are using methods that really help students comply with these standards,” said Bob Shafto, founder and executive director of the Center for Educational Services. “The goal of SEED is to recognize their work and use them as examples for other teachers.”
The grant will be broken up into small sums of $500 to $600 and given to developers and adapters of teaching approaches that align with Learning Results standards. |
