NMPMSE Beginnings – late 80s

State Math CoalitionsFunding from MSEB/NRC – Ken Hoffman

NCTM Standards & NSF Systemic Initiatives

Driving Force in NM – Hilde Howden 501(c)3

New Mexico Alliance for ScienceDriving Force in NM – Vicente Llamas

Judith Kaye at LANL

Someone from Colorado & AAAS

The Merger – early 90s

Each group was sending reps to otherSo they merged

Co-PresidentsSusan Gardenhire (Math), Vicente Llamas

(Science)Articles of Incorporation (By-Laws came later)

Usually there were five 3-hour meetings per year

Main accomplishment was communication

CAMSE – A bump in the road

1992 – Council to Advance Math & Science Ed (CAMSE)Created by Exec Order (92-01) of Gov. King

We had thought it would oversee NSF-funded SIMSE

But its stated-mission mirrored ours

CAMSE did become our “Advisory Board”

1995 w/ Gov. Johnson CAMSE rested

Year by Year Highlights

1994 – National Alliance of State Science & Math Coalitions (NASSMC)NM as a memberVicente on the Board

1995 – Reception at State Math/Sci Conference1996 – Sponsored 2nd NM Math Ed Survey1997 – Summer Parent/Child Conference

In ABQ in collaboration w/ SEDL

1998 – Licensure Entry-Level Competencies & “White Paper” on “data concerns”

Page 8: NM Partnership for Math & Science Ed (NMPMSE) web.nmsu/~pscott/partner.htm

Year by Year Highlights

1999 – Two Funded ProjectsIke - Regional Roundtables on P-16 Partnerships for

Teacher Preparation & Development (Las Cruces, ABQ, Gallup, Portales)

NASSMC/NASA - Linking Leaders (brought in Kurt Steinhaus and Jack Jekowski)

2000 – State Board of Ed requestHow many students graduate from NM high schools

w/o Algebra & w/ only 2 years of science?

Statewide Professional Development Summit

Page 9: NM Partnership for Math & Science Ed (NMPMSE) web.nmsu/~pscott/partner.htm

Other Y2K Highlights

“The Minnick Report” on Professional Dev

The Partnership became the Advisory Board for the RETA project

CESE became the Advisory Board for the PartnershipThe Council for Excellence in Science (and Math)

Education (aka DUCKS) was created in 1996

Initially to support the teaching of evolution in the 1996 NM Science Standards

Most members are in the ABQ-Los Alamos axis

The Years Roll On

2001 – Before It’s Too Late (Glenn Commission)So the National Math Panel Report seems like “déjà

vu all over again”

Board Retreat in RuidosoSteinhaus replaced Scott as Co-Prez

2002 – 1st Statewide NSF MSP proposalThe vision of the NM-MSP is to increase sci, math &

tech literacy across the state’s diverse population focusing on children who are currently being left behind & ensuring that all children will be able to participate fully & contribute to our national economic health & security.
