Both MMAP and Pathways are specially designed to meet today's mathematics standards through engaging work-based projects.

Each project is

Technology infused
Software is used for designed and analyzing, and is central to most projects.
Project based
Students get involved in designing and analyzing buildings, models, codes or maps, and learn mathematics while they are doing their project.

Standards based
The programs meet the NCTM Standards and fulfill its principles.

 


MMAP is the Middle School Mathematics through Application Project, a comprehensive middle school curriculum developed at the Institute for Research on Learning and Stanford University from 1992 to1998. MMAP units are available as separate units or as a sequenced curriculum. MMAP units are in polished draft form. MMAP units come with PC or Mac software.
 
Pathways to Algebra and Geometry is the commercial product based on MMAP. Pathways materials are packaged in semester bins that contain the MMAP unit, modified for publication, skills practice sheets, student books and most manipulatives needed. PC or Mac software is included.
An hour-long video tape featuring MMAP/Pathways in use in two classrooms is now available through the Modeling Middle School Mathematics (MMM) project. For more information please go to

The MMAP and Pathways programs are closely linked and share a common history.



The MMAP/Pathways Curriculum Support Center offers services for MMAP and Pathways users, or those who are considering the program.


Both MMAP and Pathways are currently available from WestEd through this website.
