CE-MIST aims to develop and model state-of-the-art in-service and pre-service teacher training programs that concentrate on interdisciplinary curriculum development and implementation at the middle school level.  CE-MIST will develop innovative practices that enable school personnel to improve student achievement, provide effective, sustained, high-quality professional development, incorporate field-based teacher education programs that involve technology-based instructional techniques, and implement innovative practices for teaching children with diverse backgrounds and diverse learning styles.  CE-MIST will model these programs as it provides professional development for higher education faculty around the state of South Carolina.

CE-MIST is made possible under a grant from the South Carolina Commission on Higher Education under the auspices of the Education Improvement Act (EIA) Teacher Education Centers of Excellence Grant Program.
