ABSTRACT ESI 93-53513 Christian Hirsch Western Michigan University Kalamazoo, MI Mathematical Sciences Sequential Summer Institute for High School Mathematics Teachers This 3-year master's degree program for 30 well-prepared high school teachers (selected state-wide) builds on a current, state- supported project: Making Mathematics Accessible to All (MMAA). The program includes 3 sequential summers of mathematics courses in such areas as: discrete mathematics, statistics and probability, dynamical systems, transformational geometry, matrix algebra, etc. All courses in the program stress: applications and mathematical modeling, the uses of computers and graphing calculators, long-term projects requiring cooperative group efforts, and writing about mathematics. To complement the sequential summer program, in each of the 3 academic years, participants take an additional course, including 2 mathematics education courses that focus on issues of curriculum; pedagogy; assessment; and the teacher as a thoughtful practioner, researcher, and mentor. These year-long courses include 6 2-day meetings on campus and a staff site-visit to each partcipant's school, but more frequent interaction between participants and staff will be faciliatted by MichNet. A post- program evaluation study will document the participants' professional activites and the kinds of leadership roles they assume. Cost-sharing is 23% of the NSF contribution.

摘要ESI 93-53513克里斯蒂安·赫希西密歇根大学卡拉马祖，密歇根数学科学高中数学教师连续暑期学院这个为期3年的硕士课程为30名准备充分的高中教师(选定的全州)建立在现有的，国家支持的项目：让所有人都能获得数学(MMAA)。该计划包括离散数学、统计与概率、动力系统、变换几何、矩阵代数等领域的3个连续暑期数学课程。该计划中的所有课程重点：应用程序和数学建模、计算机和图形计算器的使用、需要合作小组努力的长期项目，以及数学写作。为了补充连续的暑期计划，参与者在3个学年的每一年都要参加一门额外的课程，包括2门数学教育课程，重点是课程设置、教学方法、评估以及作为一名有思想的实践者、研究人员和导师的教师。这些为期一年的课程包括6个为期两天的校园会议和对每个参与者所在学校的工作人员现场访问，但参与者和工作人员之间更频繁的互动将通过MichNet实现。项目后评估研究将记录参与者的专业活动和他们承担的领导角色的种类。费用分担占NSF捐款的23%。
