9618099 Lipka The University of Alaska Fairbanks in collaboration with a Yup'ik teacher group, Ciulistet Leaders , and Yup'ik elders will develop 15 ancillary modules or prekindergarten through sixth grade mathematics curriculum. These modules, which are developed from Yup'ik Eskimo culture, language, and everyday practice, connect the embedded mathematics in Yup'ik culture to Western mathematics. These modules will conform to the Curriculum and Evaluation Standards of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics. Previously, this team developed math manipulative prototypes (the Yup'ik math Tool Kit) based on Yup'ik language and culture. The Yup'ik Math Tool Kit takes advantage of Yup'ik conceptions of numeration, nonstandard measures, and patterns. This tool kit will be refined and will form an integral part of this inquiry-based approach to teaching mathematics. The team plans to develop computer software that children can use to copy, identify, analyze, and create Yup'ik patterns. This four-year project is designed to serve a historically underrepresented group, indigenous Alaskan students, by linking mathematics with their culture. This project will also provide these contextually rich mathematics problems to an audience well beyond the state of Alaska, with the intent of being national in its appeal. To accomplish this, the project team will pilot and field test the modules in Alaska among school districts with an almost 100% indigenous population and outside of Alaska. Lastly, the curriculum development team will form a partnership with the Alaska Rural Systemic Initiative in developing this curriculum and in providing teacher enhancement.

9618099利普卡阿拉斯加州费尔班克斯大学将与尤普伊克教师小组、城市领袖和尤普伊克长辈合作，开发15个辅助模块或幼儿园前至六年级的数学课程。这些模块是从尤皮克·爱斯基摩人的文化、语言和日常实践中发展出来的，将尤皮克文化中嵌入的数学与西方数学联系在一起。这些单元将符合全国数学教师委员会的课程和评估标准。此前，这个团队开发了基于Yup‘ik语言和文化的数学操纵原型(Yup’ik数学工具包)。Yup‘ik数学工具包利用了Yup’ik的计数、非标准度量和模式的概念。这个工具包将得到改进，并将成为这种以探究为基础的数学教学方法的组成部分。该团队计划开发儿童可以用来复制、识别、分析和创造Yup‘ik图案的计算机软件。这个为期四年的项目旨在通过将数学与他们的文化联系起来，服务于历史上代表性不足的阿拉斯加土著学生群体。该项目还将向远远超出阿拉斯加州的受众提供这些背景丰富的数学问题，目的是在其吸引力中体现全国性。为了实现这一目标，项目组将在阿拉斯加的几乎100%土著人口的学区和阿拉斯加以外的地区试行和实地测试这些模块。最后，课程开发小组将与阿拉斯加农村系统倡议结成伙伴关系，开发这门课程并加强教师能力。
