Four days after most of their school years concluded, 21 local TK-5 elementary teachers and two elementary math coaches participated in a professional development workshop focused on integrating data science concepts into elementary curricula. Led by Cal State Fullerton faculty, the workshop was offered through Project IDEEM — Infusing Data Science Education into Elementary Mathematics.

‘Project Camino’ Addresses Teacher Shortage, Need for Diverse Educators
Cal State Fullerton has been awarded a $1.25 million grant from the U.S. Department of Education to address the shortage of diverse and multilingual early childhood special education teachers in local classrooms.
The grant supports “Project Camino: Early Childhood Special Education,” directed by Janice Myck-Wayne, professor of special education, and the university’s 2023 Outstanding Professor. Aja McKee, associate professor of special education, is co-director of the project. The university has received $250,000 in first-year funding.
Due to the state and nationwide shortage of special education teachers, Project Camino provides financial incentives and support for teacher candidates to enter the special education field.

This program aims to prepare middle school and early high school teachers of mathematics. At CSUF, the FLM credential is a stand-alone program separate from the Mathematics credential program. This has allowed us to create a strong focus on preparing teachers of middle school mathematics with a particular emphasis on teaching pre-algebra and algebra.
Our program completers have developed the perspectives and skills needed to plan and implement lessons that engage learners in making sense of foundational concepts and skills and preparing them for the advanced coursework that follows. The FLM program at CSU Fullerton is recognized as a national model for middle school mathematics teacher preparation.
For more information, contact the FLM program coordinator, Dr. Mallika Scott , or the FLM Math Ally, Dr. Bridget Druken, in the Math Department.
The Teacher Recruitment Project (TRP) supports multiple subject holders, candidates, and prospective candidates earn a single subject credential in math or science in addition to the multiple subject credential. The TRP is funded by the CSU Chancellor’s Office through lottery monies. Its aim is to increase the number of qualified teachers in mathematics and science.
