NCTM Standards Research Catalyst Conference

全国数学教师协会(NCTM)的研究咨询委员会将于1991年3月主办一次NCTM标准研究催化剂会议。这次工作会议的目的是确定和促进对学校数学课程和评估标准所设想的观点的研究，并监测这些标准在学校环境中的实施情况。如果没有合作研究和监测工作，政策行动、课程开发、评估改革和教学创新可能会在没有系统修改和知情决策所需的反馈的情况下进行。这次会议将有助于制定研究议程，并通过促进六个重点领域的互补性学习，在全国范围内促进旨在和实施的数学课程和评估改革的研究、开发和监测工作：评估、课程改革、交流、政策、中等核心课程、以及表征工具和模型。参加会议的人数将按申请人数进行选择。将特别努力将少数民族、数学教育领域的新研究人员、数学家和学校从业人员纳入由数学教育领域老牌领导人领导的研究小组。这些领导人将担任导师，他们将组织由参与者进行的研究的框架和背景文件，以及将由NCTM分发的研究议程专著。长期成果包括在1991年和1992年NCTM研究展示上所作的研究报告介绍，以及由此产生的研究和监测活动的临时摘要。

The research advisory committee of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) will sponsor a NCTM STANDARDS Research Catalyst Conference in March, 1991. The purpose of this working conference is to define and stimulate research on the perspectives envisioned by the CURRICULUM AND EVALUATION STANDARDS FOR SCHOOL MATHEMATICS and to monitor the implementation of the STANDARDS within school settings. Without a collaborative research and monitoring effort, policy actions, curriculum development, assessment reform, and pedagogical innovation may proceed without the feedback necessary for systematic modification and informed decision- making. This conference will serve to set a research agenda and to catalyze research, development, and monitoring efforts that examine intended and implemented mathematics curriculum and assessment reform across the nation by stimulating complementary study within six focus areas are: assessment, curriculum change, communication, policy, secondary core curriculum, and representation tools and models. Conference attendance will be selected by application. Special efforts will be made to include minorities, new researchers in mathematics education, mathematicians, and school practitioners in research teams directed by established leaders in mathematics education. These leaders will serve as mentors who will organize the framework and the background papers of studies to be conducted by the participants and a research agenda monograph to be distributed by NCTM. Long-term outcomes include research reporting presentations at the 1991 and 1992 NCTM Research Presessions and an interim summary of the resulting research and monitoring activities.
