Project PreEMPT Tech: Preparing Effective Mathematics Preservice Teachers with Technology

Roger Day DUE 9551240 Illinois State University FY1995 $ 45,780 Normal， IL 61790 ILI -仪器仪表项目：数学项目名称：Project PreEMPT technology计算机技术对数学学科和数学教学都产生了影响。技术对图形、符号和数字操作的能力标志着数学意义的变化。科技为学习提供了新的资源。在实验室环境中，技术可以促进学生对思想的调查和探索。未来的数学教师必须能够将技术作为一种工具来做数学和教数学。PreEMPT技术项目提供了一个技术丰富的学习环境，以支持中学数学专业的发展。该项目建立在系内的几项举措的基础上——为职前教师开设新课程，整合改革微积分教材和教学方法，重新强调统计中的数据分析——为全面利用这一环境奠定了基础。因为ISU准备的中学数学教师比伊利诺伊州任何其他机构都多，所以在课程和技术进步方面的统一努力将产生巨大的影响。

Roger Day DUE 9551240 Illinois State University FY1995 $ 45,780 Normal, IL 61790 ILI - Instrumentation Project: Mathematics Title: Project PreEMPT Tech: Preparing Effective Mathematics Preservice Teachers with Technology Computer technology impacts upon both the discipline and teaching of mathematics. Technology's capacity for graphical, symbolic, and numerical manipulations signals a change in what it means to do mathematics. Technology provides new resources for learning. In a laboratory setting, technology can foster investigation and exploration of students' ideas. Future mathematics teachers must be able to use technology as a tool for both doing and teaching mathematics. Project PreEMPT Tech provides a technology rich learning environment to support the development of secondary mathematics majors. The project builds upon several initiatives within the department - a new course for preservice teachers, integration of reform calculus materials and teaching methods, a new emphasis on data analysis in statistics-have laid the foundation for comprehensive use of that environment. Because ISU prepares more secondary mathematics teachers than any other institution in the state of Illinois, this unified effort in curriculum and technology advancement promises to have great impact.
