Incorporating the Graphing Calculator into the Mathematics Classroom

10个为期一天的研讨会将提出促进图形计算器在本科数学课程中的直接和广泛使用。该项目将为250名本科数学教师提供(1)关于计算器机制的详细培训，(2)如何在特定课程中使用计算器的想法，(3)为这些课程开发教学材料的机会，以及(4)与同事分享经验的机会。这个由四名成员组成的项目团队将访问10所社区大学校园，为感兴趣的两年制和四年制大学数学教师举办这些讲习班。每位参加者将获赠一台TI-81图形计算器，每所院校将获赠一套计算器投影仪，以鼓励教师不断探索图形计算器在数学教学中的潜在用途。项目主管将创建、编辑和出版一份时事通讯，并安排三次后续会议，以便参与的教师分享他们的经验。

Ten one day workshops will be presented to promote the immediate and widespread use of graphing calculators into the undergraduate mathematics curriculum. This project will provide 250 undergraduate math faculty with (1) detailed training on the mechanics of the calculator, (2) ideas as to how the calculator can be used in specific courses, (3) the opportunity to develop instructional materials for those courses, and (4) the opportunity to share their experiences with colleagues. The four member project team will visit 10 community college campuses to give these workshops to interested two- and four-year college mathematics faculty. Each participant will receive a TI-81 graphing calculator and each institution a calculator projector kit to encourage instructors to continually explore potential uses of graphing calculators in mathematics instruction. The project director will create, edit, and publish a newsletter, and three follow- up meetings are scheduled so that participating faculty can share their experiences.
