This paper will present a model to increase pre-service mathematics
teacher effectiveness with Differentiated Instruction and National Board for
Professional Teaching Standards (NBPTS)
resources. This model can potentially advance knowledge in the field of
Educator professional development by providing a model to create, train and
support pre-service STEM teachers, content specialists and educational leaders.
In addition to potentially impacting college/university teacher preparation,
school districts and state/federal entities. This model can be replicated for
other content areas.
