General scientific concepts are explored, as are the principles underlying the scientific method and experimentation techniques. AWSP Course: Informal Mathematics II 02001 Informal Mathematics courses emphasize the teaching of mathematics as problem solving, communication, and reasoning, and highlight the connections among mathematical topics and between mathematics and other disciplines. These courses approach the teaching of general math, pre-algebra, and pre-geometry topics by applying numbers, and algebraic and geometric concepts and relationships to real world problems.

  • Slide 24
  • InET (Innovative Educational Technologies) Migrant educators and administrators in the states with the most experience in binational migrant programs identified concerns for binational migrant students as described below. Missing school because they lack proper paperwork (e.g., Apostille, Certificate of Completion from Mexico, Transfer Document). Lacking credits for coursework completed (i.e., reciprocity in credit transfer). Having less time for instruction resulting in poor achievement due to high mobility. Lacking access to technology to help students succeed and stay in school. Falling behind in language development. When in the U.S., binational students lack of English proficiency puts them behind their peers; when returning to Mexico, binational students lack of Spanish proficiency puts them behind their peers. Accessing educational and community services when making frequent international moves is difficult and often results in educational and social isolation. Training is needed for instructors on the binational migrant lifestyle and for effective strategies for this population which results in more effective instruction

  • CONEVyT One of the highlights of this program is the scheduling flexibility to offer courses and classes that will meet the needs of the students regardless of geographic location. Plazas Comunitarias are not exclusive to the educational programs offered on their online menus but offer the flexibility for schools, institutions, and groups involved in the Plazas Comunitarias to provide additional programs and resources deemed necessary. They complement the educational requirements of their communities. In addition, this program is free of charge to those 15 years of age and older regardless of their country of origin. Each Plaza Comunitaria selects the services it will provide. It can offer a specific service and, as the need arises, augment it by adding and integrating other services and offerings based on the needs of the community and the resources available.
  • Slide 26
  • CONEVyT Getting Started, two options: 1. Become a Plaza Comunitaria or 2. Become a member of an existing Plaza Comunitaria. To become a Plaza Comunitaria, contact the Migrant Education Program at OSPI (Terrie Beckman) so she may work with Mexican Consulate for technology and training logistics. To become a member of an existing Plaza, contact the Plazas in the handout.

  • Out-of-School Youth What is the definition of out-of-school youth? Are such youth eligible for MEP services? (Office of Migrant Education Non-Regulatory Guidance, 2010) For the purposes of the MEP, the Department considers the term out-of-school youth to mean youth up through age 21 who are entitled to a free public education in the State and who meet the definition of migratory child, but who are not currently enrolled in a K-12 school. This could include students who have dropped out of school, youth who are working on a general education development credential (GED) outside of a K-12 school, and youth who are here-to-work only. It would not include children in preschool. Out-of-school youth who meet the definition of a migratory child as well as all other MEP eligibility criteria are eligible for the MEP.
