Faculty Advancement in Mathematics (FAIM)

两个为期两周的暑期讲习班正在举行，以了解本科生 教授与新的课程理念在几何和 统计及其应用。 各领域的领导者， 学者和从业者，正在与50个国家的互动， 使他们能够了解这些领域的新发展 数学领域，并准备基于应用程序的模块化材料 适合在教室里使用。 几何学中讨论的领域 包括平铺、组合几何和计算几何。 统计领域包括数据采集（特别是统计 设计的实验），通过图形方法进行数据分析，并进行推理 多变量数据的程序，包括要求 比传统方法限制性更小的假设。 将在AMS/MAA国家联合会议上举行一次正式的后续会议， 会议，与会者可以讨论 在他们的校园里进行培训，并使用模块化材料， 学生

Two two-week summer workshops are being held to acquaint undergraduate professors with new curricula ideas in the areas of geometry and statistics and their applications. Leaders in each field, both academics and practitioners, are interacting with fifty nationally drawn participants to enable them to understand new developments in these mathematical fields and to prepare applications-based modular materials suitable for use in their classrooms. Areas being discussed in geometry include tilings, combinatorial geometry and computational geometry. Statistics areas include data acquisition (especially statistically designed experiments), data analysis by graphical methods, and inference procedures for many-variable data, including new procedures that require less restrictive assumptions than traditional methods. A formal follow-up session will be held at the national joint AMS/MAA meetings in January, where participants may discuss the aspect of the training on their campuses and the use of modular materials with their students.
