Criteria to Assess Promising Practices
SETDA collected data on projects and/or initiatives that effectively integrate technology into mathematics from states across the nation. Several SETDA members reviewed these projects to identify the most promising practices. SETDA members used a rubric and evaluated the following components of each project:
- Program Content
- Research/Evaluation
- Standards
- Technology Integration
- Student Engagement & Problem Solving
- Program Replication
- Professional Development
- Usefulness for Other States
