Research, Replication and Outreach
Research
Mott Middle/Early College is a research based school. Mott Middle/Early College was designed around the best practice research
in teaching and learning. Mott Middle/Early College is
a guidance based school based on the research of Dr.
William Glasser, Choice Theory and Dr. William Purkey,
Invitational School.
In addition, Mott Middle/Early College maintains on-going research of
student progress in a number of ways, pre and post
reading and math scores and learning style inventories. Fifth-year graduates are required to
complete a portfolio presentation and complete exit
testing that asks them to comment about their Mott Middle/Early College experience. Mott Middle/Early College maintains this data on file to use in
determining best practice for teaching and learning.
Replication
Mott Middle/Early College is a coaching site for new Middle Early colleges
across the country. The principal and staff provide
on-going technical assistance for assigned school and/or
schools. New and/or potential schools also visit Mott Middle/Early College and meet with staff regarding best
practice.
This work has been
supported by The Charles Stewart Mott Foundation since the inception of the
school and in recent years by the Bill and Melinda Gates
Foundation via the Middle College National Consortium.
