The mission of NDTAC is to improve educational programming for youth who are neglected, delinquent, or at risk of academic failure. NDTAC’s mandates are to provide information, resources, and direct technical assistance to States and those who support or provide education to youth who are neglected or delinquent, to develop a model and tools to assist States and providers with reporting data and evaluating their services, and to serve as a facilitator to increase information-sharing and peer-to-peer learning at the State and local levels.

This version contains much of the information from the earlier publication but also includes strategies for using project-based learning and Web-based instructional programs to support the development of mathematics proficiency for youth in short-term juvenile correctional facilities. Mathematics proficiency includes mastery and fluency in foundational numeracy; an understanding of complex, grade-appropriate concepts and procedures; and application of those competencies to solve relevant, real-life problems.  \nThis guide is primarily designed to help practitioners implement research-based, effective mathematics instruction in short-term facilities, defined as institutions that typically house youth detained in juvenile corrections or other residential facilities for periods of 90 days or less. A secondary audience includes local juvenile justice facilities program coordinators, facility administrators, and State Title I, Part D coordinators.  \nThis guide provides recommendations, strategies, and examples for teachers that increase the likelihood that students will become more proficient at understanding mathematics and applying existing and emerging skills. Just as important, the guide can help teachers promote the self-confidence of students in their ability to use mathematics to solve problems.  \nThe number of youth in residential custody for delinquency continues to fall across the United States. The most current data, the one-day count, showed that 48,043 children underage 21 were held in 1,772 publicly and privately operated facilities throughout t","cbCaiqc1amE3w67N","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiqc1amE3w67N","pdf",1238291,17,"English","# Introduction\n## Purpose and audiences\n## Definition of mathematics proficiency\n## Context and data on short-term juvenile facilities\n## Evidence on academic performance and prior school experiences","[{\"question\":\"What is the guide’s primary purpose for short-term facilities?\",\"answer\":\"It provides recommendations, strategies, and examples for teachers to increase students’ proficiency in understanding and applying mathematics in short-term juvenile correctional facilities.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the guide define mathematics proficiency?\",\"answer\":\"It includes mastery and fluency in foundational numeracy, understanding complex grade-appropriate concepts and procedures, and applying competencies to solve relevant real-life problems.\"},{\"question\":\"Who is the guide intended to support besides teachers?\",\"answer\":\"In addition to practitioners implementing mathematics instruction, it supports local juvenile justice program coordinators, facility administrators, and State Title I, Part D coordinators.\"}]","Making It Count: Strategies for Improving Mathematics Instruction for Students in Short-Term Facilities - Second Edition | PDF",1792054782,43]
