Invited Foundational Papers on Research in Undergraduate Mathematics Education

数学教育领域的研究人员正在撰写基础论文，这些论文将被纳入新的数学科学会议委员会的《大学数学教育研究》系列。这些论文既有纯粹的目的，也有应用的目的，为本科数学教育的研究领域做出了贡献，为直接改善本科数学教学提供了依据。双重目的意味着双重但重叠的受众。论文集中在特定数学领域的学习以及更一般的认知过程，如解决问题，技能习得，概念发展，数学创造力和认知风格。论文还涉及与教学方法变化或课堂和实验室环境相关的问题。更广泛地说，研究可能涉及旨在支持学习和教学的制度安排；例如，课程设计、评估实践或教师发展策略。

Researchers in mathematics education are writing foundational papers to be included in the new Conference Board of the Mathematical Sciences series RESEARCH IN COLLEGIATE MATHEMATICS EDUCATION. These papers serve both pure and applied purposes, contributing to the field of research in undergraduate mathematics education and informing the direct improvement of undergraduate mathematics instruction. The dual purposes imply dual but overlapping audiences. Papers focus on learning within particular mathematical domains as well as on more general cognitive process such as problem solving, skill acquisition, conceptual development, mathematical creativity, and cognitive styles. Papers also deal with issues associated with variations in teaching methods, or classroom and laboratory contexts. More broadly, research may address institutional arrangements intended to support learning and teaching; for example, curriculum design, assessment practices, or strategies for faculty development.
