Seeking CA science teachers for CMA standard setting committee
ETS and the California Department of Education seek knowledgeable, current California teachers interested in providing recommendations on how to improve the STAR tests.
There are a number of current opportunities, each targeting teachers with specific experience and backgrounds. Most meetings take place in Sacramento, and ETS covers all costs of attendance(lodging, food, transportation), including a substitute teacher if necessary. Participation is voluntary, which means that we are unable to provide a stipend at this time.

Teachers with content knowledge of MATH or SCIENCE for grades 5 - 9 are encouraged to apply for CMA Standard Setting scheduled for the week of August 17th, 2009.
* Each Standard Setting committee meeting spans 2.5 days.
* Math/Science Standard Setting goes from 19th-21st (Science especially needed!!!)
