Elementary Math and Technology (EMAT)

这是波士顿公立学校和波士顿大学共同努力的结果。月计划将使整个学校系统的小学教师能够将基于计算机的材料纳入数学教学。几个创新的课程项目，发展问题。我们将对解决问题的技巧进行回顾，以确定它们在小学数学课程中的地位。通过对数学内容的指导和与导师老师的互动，总共75名准备充分的K-5教师将准备好使用这些材料，并为他们的同事提供在职指导。参加者包括双语教师、特殊教育教师和资优学生教师。评价将评价该项目对教学策略和学生学习的影响，传播活动将包括制作录像带。波士顿公立学校贡献的金额相当于国家科学基金会奖金的58%。

A collaborative effort on the part of the Boston Public Schools and Boston University, this 39.month project will enable elementary schoolteachers throughout the school system to integrate computer-based materials into the teaching of mathematics. Several innovative curriculum projects that develop problem.solving skills will be reviewedin order to define their place in the elementary mathematics curriculum. Through instruction in mathematics content and interaction with mentor teachers, a total of seventy-five well-prepared K-5 teachers will be readied to use these materials, and to provide inservice instruction to their colleagues. Participants will include bilingual teachers, special education teachers, and teachers of gifted and talented students. The evaluation will assess the project's effect on teaching strategies and on student learning, and dissemination activities will include the production of a videotape. The Boston Public Schools is contributing an amount equal to 58% of the NSF award.
