This three-year project seeks to develop and test materials that will           enable upper elementary and middle school teachers to carry out research        activities concerning students' use of Logo.  The goal is to develop and        assess a professional development model that will assist teachers in            becoming more knowledgeable, reflective, and diagnostic in their use of         Logo, so that the potential of Logo to promote students' mathematical           development will be more fully realized.                                                                                                                        The project consists of two cycles.  In the first, ten teachers from the        Boston area will participate in an academic-year seminar involving              research on their own students' use of Logo.  During the second cycle,          six teachers will be trained as seminar leaders who will, with the              assistance of the project staff, conduct the academic-year seminar for          their colleagues.  Thirty teachers from schools near Boston, as well as         thirty other teachers from three more distant districts, will be                involved in the second cycle.                                                                                                                                   The participating school districts are contributing as cost-sharing an          amount equal to 7% of the NSF award.
