Issues in Diversity: A Synthesis of Literature Relevant to Mathematics Classrooms which Promote Understanding

本提案（多样性问题：促进理解的数学课堂相关文献综合）旨在通过将与多样性相关的概念引入全国数学教育改革辩论中来改进数学教育研究。该提案旨在对数学教育和多样性进行文献综述，并借鉴不同领域的文献，包括语言和识字、话语和交流、文化人类学、社会学和多元文化教育。一个咨询小组的15名成员将就相关的文章提供意见（包括西北大学的Carol Lee），就多样性问题发表一系列讲座，并将与私人机构合作，传播各种讨论和档案研究综合的结果。

This proposal (Issues in Diversity: A Synthesis of the Literature Relevant to Mathematics Classrooms Which Promote Understanding) seeks to improve research in mathematics education by introducing concepts related to diversity into the national debate on mathematics education reform. The proposal sets out to conduct a literature review of mathematics education and diversity drawing upon literatures in a diverse set of areas including language and literacy, discourse and communication, cultural anthropology, sociology and multicultural education. Fifteen members of an Advisory Panel will advise the PIs (including Carol Lee at Northwestern University) on pertinent articles to review, will give a series of lectures on diversity issues, and will work with the PIs to disseminate the findings arising from the various discussions and archival research syntheses.
