AbstractESI-98-13096Principal Investigator: Gail BurrillNational Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM)Math is Everywhere - Public Understanding and Engagement Mathematics Initiative This project is a funded as a component of the joint NSF/DoE Public Understanding and Engagement Initiative for middle grade mathematics. NCTM, Widmeyer-Baker and NACME are partnering to launch and deliver the Initiative. NCTM has responsibility for ensuring that the mathematics conveyed throughout the Initiative is compelling, accurate, and appropriate for middle grade learners. Their project contributions are entitled Math in the Media and the Public as Partners. Math in the Media is the title of the Problem of the Week feature, which will be designed for weekly promotions around the country. The problems will be developed across the following content strands: number, data, geometry, measurement, and patterns, functions and algebra. Problem contexts will vary. The problems of the week will be designed such that they will be simultaneously available in print and web-based formats. The Public as Partners project component will be aimed at the general public and will develop printed materials to support and engage the public in actually doing mathematics.

美国数学教师全国理事会（NCTM）数学无处不在-公众理解和参与数学倡议这个项目是一个资助的一个组成部分，联合NSF/能源部公众理解和参与倡议中年级数学。 NCTM、Widmeyer-Baker和NACME正在合作启动和交付该倡议。 NCTM有责任确保整个倡议传达的数学是令人信服的，准确的，适合中等年级的学习者。 他们的项目贡献题为媒体和公众作为合作伙伴的数学。 媒体中的数学是本周问题的标题，这将是专为全国各地的每周促销活动。 这些问题将在以下内容链中开发：数字，数据，几何，测量和模式，函数和代数。 问题背景会有所不同。 本周的问题将被设计为同时以印刷和网络格式提供。 “公众作为伙伴”项目的组成部分将面向一般公众，并将编制印刷材料，以支持和吸引公众实际从事数学工作。
