Seven Synthesis Teams, focusing on seven crucial topics in education, are producing authoritative reports on the nation's current state of knowledge about effective school reform for all students. Their reports are based on the research findings of CREDE and will be completed in spring 2003. The teams will also recommend the next national research agenda. Teams are comprised of CREDE researchers, distinguished "mainstream" researchers, teachers, administrators, and policymakers and are focusing on these seven areas:
Language Learning and Academic Achievement
Professional Development for Diversity
Preservice Teacher Education for Diversity
Schools, Families and Community
Mathematics and Diversity
Science and Diversity
Teacher-School-Systemic Integration for Effective Reform
The synthesis project is administered and operated through CREDE offices at the University of Houston. For more information, visit the CREDE-UH site.
