COMPLEAT Project

An NSF funded collaborative project that uses constructive mathematics pathways to advance preservice elementary teachers’ learning.

Welcome to COMPLEAT!

This COMPLEAT project (Using Constructive Mathematics Pathways to Advance Preservice Elementary Teachers’ Learning) aims to serve the national interest by improving mathematics content courses for preservice elementary teachers (PSETs) to advance their 21st Century workforce skills as future teachers. This project implements the ACE model into geometry and measurement courses for PSETS across Boise State University, Augusta University, University of Texas at San Antonio, and Kapi’olani Community College, all minority-serving institutions.

ACE Model

The innovative ACE (Apply, Connect, Experience) model is designed to engage PSETs in (1) applying learned knowledge and skills to the practice of teaching; (2) connecting crosscutting concepts through STEM inquiries and practices; and (3) experiencing community-based experiential learning through facilitating STEM inquiries.
