Initiative Mentoring, Professional

The Initiative for Mentoring and Preparing Classroom Teachers (IMPACT) is an Indiana University School of Education, Ameri Corps, and Indiana Serve funded project that aims to offer early career expediencies for pre-service teacher education in Southwest Central Indiana by having undergraduate and graduate students serve as Ameri Corps Service Members and facilitate tutoring and informal education programs while building capacity for local schools and educational organizations in the region.

IMPACT’s programs, specifically pertaining to STEM, mathematics education, and literacy are designed to aid the participating undergraduate and graduate students’ early exposures to teaching and, ultimately, strengthen the region’s teacher pipeline. Each program is facilitated by IU undergraduate and graduate students under the direction of IU SoE faculty. IMPACT programs take place during the academic year in public schools and libraries and are designed to provide sustained engagement for elementary and middle school-age youth.

During the  academic year, IMPACT students tutored more than 145 students on a weekly and sometimes biweekly basis.

IMPACT Ameri Corps members will plan and facilitate STEM, mathematics, and literacy programming including one-on-one tutoring programs in Southwest Central Indiana communities.
