National Council of Teachers of Mathematics: Teacher Professional Development Grants (preK-5), (6-8), and (9-12)

The National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) is accepting applications to support professional development to improve the competence in the teaching of mathematics of one or more classroom teachers. The proposal must delineate the teacher’s or teachers’ professional development plan and address how the proposed project will improve competence and affect student learning. While the grant does not fund the purchase of technology, proposals including professional development involving the use of technology to enhance student learning are encouraged. Any acquisition of equipment must support the proposed plan but not be the primary focus of the grant.
