MATHOPOLIS - Mathematics Theme Exhibitry in the New Science Center of Connecticut

9453779乔登康涅狄格州科学中心将在其占地160,000平方米的新建筑中开发、评估和安装57项数学展览活动。英国《金融时报》展览设施。这些活动将使参观者了解数学是日常生活中不可或缺的一部分，也是许多职业中的一项必要技能。将讨论八个数学主题：概率和统计；相对尺度；几何；对称性；数学难题；混沌和分形学；数字、测量和计算；以及估计。实践活动的范围从参与低技术活动到高科技的计算机化活动。目标观众是9岁及以上的人，博物馆每年将有50万游客参观。数学活动将分布在博物馆各处，数学将成为博物馆所有展品的综合主题。主题与康涅狄格州S SSI项目相一致，该项目侧重于科学学科背景下的应用数学。在该州，与康涅狄格州公共电视台联手的计划正在形成，通过知识网络播放博物馆的电子实地考察。在全国范围内，博物馆工作人员将在博物馆和数学教育会议上向其他博物馆专业人员发表演讲。主题融合的概念将贯穿整个博物馆，通过国家和民族传播。***

9453779 Jordon The Science Center of Connecticut will develop, evaluate, and install 57 mathematical exhibit activities in its new 160,000 sq. ft. exhibit facility. These activities will engage visitors in learning how math is an integral part of daily life and a necessary skill in many careers. Eight math topics will be treated: probability and statistics; relative scale; geometry; symmetry; math puzzles; chaos and fractals; numbers, measurements, and calculations; and estimations. The hands-on activities will range from involvement with low-tech to high- tech, computerized activities. The target audience is people nine and up and it will be available to the museums 500,000 annual visitors. The mathematics activities will be distributed throughout the museum and math will serve as a integrating theme for all the museum's exhibits. The topics are aligned with Connecticut s SSI program which focuses on applied mathematics in context of the science disciplines. Within the state, plans are taking shape to link with Connecticut Public Television to broadcast electronic field trips to the museum through Knowledge Network. Nationally, museum staff members will make presentations at both museum and mathematics education meetings to other museum professionals. The concept of thematic integration throughout the museum will be disseminated through the state and the nation. ***
