These images are then inserted into thePPt. Presentation. The presentation is to be used by the students at the end of thesemester in a seminar.

Green North Dakota State UniversityAbstractMastery learning, as introduced in the 1960’s and 1970’s, includes three distinguishing features:(1) the use of proctors, which allows tutoring, repeated testing, and immediate feedback; (2) theunit-perfection requirement, which requires students to document subject mastery beforeadvancing to new material; and (3) the self-paced feature1. Significant resource demands,particularly for proctors, has discouraged the widespread use of traditional mastery

Of the 20-30 high schools in the region,there were four PLTW schools, so he started there. His first contact at each school was generallywith the principal, then with the PLTW teacher(s).He built a recruiting presentation, and started visiting the schools. At one school, the largest inthe region, the PLTW instructors set up large assemblies of students (PLTW classes, physicsclasses, etc.) so he could speak to hundreds of students in a single visit. At the other schools henormally spoke to one or two PLTW classes.Although it has a recruiting component, the presentation itself
