Long Island Mathematics Enrichment Institute for High Ability or High Potential Young Women

纽约州立大学/老韦斯特伯里学院将实施一项为期两年的项目，为高能力或高潜力的年轻女性创建长岛数学浓缩研究所。提议的努力将与拿骚县数学协会、萨福克县数学协会和拿骚县数学监督协会合作建立。在每个15个星期六上午的两个周期中，Old Westbury将与该地区每学期25名高能力或高潜力的10年级或11年级年轻女性合作。在学年期间，年轻妇女将参加职业认识会议、提高意识活动、榜样讲座、激励讲习班和专门的数学指导。参加者将经历60个小时的学年项目活动，以及12个小时的夏季后续曝光。参与者将与学区的同学分享学院的培训和动力。对讲习班/研讨会的录像将使教师有机会观看未参加的学生的演讲。第二年后将提供一份“如何”复制手册，以供各国复制。在高中课间休息期间，四次实践研究导向的实地考察/示范将补充学年的努力。家长参与工作坊、辅导组成部分和职业规划会议为学院设计增加了必要的维度。

The State University of New York/College at Old Westbury will implement a two-year project to create the Long Island Mathematics Enrichment Institute for High Ability or High Potential Young Women. The proposed effort will be established in collaboration with the Nassau County Mathematics Association, the Suffolk County Mathematics Association, and the Nassau County Mathematics Supervision Association. For each of two fifteen-Saturday morning cycles Old Westbury will work with twenty- five high ability or high potential 10th or 11th grade young women per semester in the region. During the academic year, young women will participate in career awareness sessions, consciousness-raising efforts, role model lectures, motivational workshops and specialized mathematics instruction. Attendees will undergo sixty hours of academic year project activities, and 12 hours of Summer follow-up exposure. Participants will share Institute training and motivation with classmates in school districts. Videotaping of workshops/seminars will afford teachers the opportunity of viewing presentations with nonparticipating students. A "how to" replication manual after Year II will be available for national replicability. Four hands-on research- oriented field visits/demonstrations during high school intersession breaks will complement academic-year efforts. Parental involvement in workshops, a mentoring component and career planning sessions add a necessary dimension to Institute design.
