ATOMS for Accomplished Teachers of Mathematics and Science
Research Description: 

Ellen’s field of research includes teacher education and literacy education. Her work focuses on how to best prepare teachers in all curricular areas; however, her expertise is in literacy research, theory, and methods as well as on diversity and equity issues in schools and communities.Ellen is the PI on a new NSF-funded study ($3.1M) to evaluate NC State's STEM-focused elementary teacher preparation program. The program is called ATOMS for Accomplished Teachers of Mathematics and science.  This value-added study will follow pre-service teachers from the beginning of their teacher preparation program through their first or second years of teaching. Across these years, we will track growth of content knowledge in mathematics and science, pedagogical content knowledge, efficacy, and teaching performance.  We will also measure elementary students' achievement in mathematics, science, and reading of ATOMS graduates. A presentation of the study was made in March 2012, "Project ATOMS: Multiple Measures, Methods, and Perspectives to Evaluate a Teacher Education Program."

Ellen McIntyre was PI of an NCTE-funded study of elementary teachers' implementation of research-based, culturally responsive reading instruction. A presentation of that study was made in April 2010 "Can Research-Based Reading Instruction be Culturally Responsive? Using Hybridity as a Concept for a Model of Elementary Teachers' Reading Instruction."
