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.

正在举办两个为期两周的夏季研讨会，以使本科生教授熟悉几何和统计学及其应用领域的新课程理念。 每个领域的领导者，包括学者和实践者，正在与 50 名全国范围内的参与者进行互动，使他们能够了解这些数学领域的新发展，并准备适合在课堂上使用的基于应用的模块化材料。 几何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（尤其是统计设计的实验）、图形方法的数据分析以及多变量数据的推理程序，包括比传统方法需要更少限制性假设的新程序。 正式的后续会议将在 1 月份的全国 AMS/MAA 联合会议上举行，与会者可以与学生讨论校园培训以及模块化材料的使用方面的问题。
