History of NOMSTA
The Northeastern Oklahoma Mathematics and Science Teacher Association was
organized in the summer of 2002 by participants of a National Science
Foundation funded program called the Mathematics and Science Teacher
Enhancement Program at Northeastern State University in Tahlequah (NSU MASTEP).
Funding for this program ended in December 2005. The purposes and goals
were written by these participants and are shown below. The group also
wrote the Constitution and By-Laws which were approved by the members at the
First NOMSTA Annual Conference on February 8, 2004. NSU MASTEP also
resulted in Northeastern State University developing an M.Ed.
in Science Education and an M.Ed.
in Mathematics Education. The programs were approved by the regents
in February 2004.
Purposes
The purposes of the Northeastern Oklahoma Mathematics and Science Teachers Association shall be to encourage active interest in all areas of mathematics education and science education, to enhance the teaching and learning of mathematics and science, to promote the research in the teaching and learning of mathematics and science, and to provide opportunities for the exchange of views regarding the teaching and learning of mathematics and science.
