Case-based Teacher Assistant Software for Integrated Pre-college Mathematical Instruction Using a Subject- Integration Approach

小行星9360544 如果学科是孤立地教授的，学生就不能理解他们必须掌握的概念的发展和产生的关系。 综合学科或"综合课程"是一种新的教学方法，为研究提供了良好的平台，并提供了比目前更好的受教育程度。 然而，目前，大多数初中和中学教师既没有时间也没有行政支助，使他们能够在一个综合框架内教授一门学科-一个可以利用历史和文化背景来显示其发展的框架。 本小企业创新研究（SBIR）第一阶段项目提出了开发一个教师辅助软件设计的可行性，初中和中学数学教师，使用概念和它们的上下文（案例）的基于案例的推理（CBR）在互联网上使用。 该项目有可能为整合课程提供有效和可获得的教具。 这一工具将有助于提高学习者的兴趣，培养学生将概念联系起来的心理能力，从而提高他们解决问题的能力。 ***

9360544 Owen If academic subjects are taught in isolation, students cannot appreciate the development of and the relationships emanating from the concepts that they are required to master. Integration of subjects or "integrated curricula" is a new pedagogical approach that affords excellent platforms for research and a far better educated populace than is to be found currently. Presently, however, most middle and secondary teachers have neither the time nor the administrative support to enable them to teach a subject in an integrated framework--one that may use the historical and cultural context to show it development. This Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project proposes to investigate the feasibility of developing a teacher assistant software design for middle and secondary teachers of mathematics that uses concepts and their contexts (cases) for case-based reasoning (CBR) for use on Internet. The project has the potential to contribute an effective and accessible teaching aid for integrating curriculum. This tool will facilitate the maintainence of learners interest and the development of a mental facility in students for linking concepts and thus enlarging their problem solving capabilities. ***
