Abstract
The Association of Mathematics Teacher Educators adopted Standards for Elementary Mathematics Specialists calling for structured preparation of math coaches, specialists, and instructional leaders across the country (AMTE, 2013). The purpose of this paper is to illustrate the structure and design of our fully online Elementary Mathematics Instructional Leader (EMIL) graduate program for inservice teachers aiming to answer the call. Our graduates are teacher leaders and coaches who are responsible for supporting effective mathematics instruction and student learning at the classroom, school, district, or state levels. We will review formative data from our first cohort of graduates, the benefits and drawbacks to providing online (and grant-funded) courses, and the impact of participant attrition. Our goal is to offer guidance and information to other organizations as they move to develop programs of their own.
