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

该提案（《多样性问题：促进理解的数学课堂相关文献综述》）旨在通过将与多样性有关的概念引入关于数学教育改革的全国性辩论，改进数学教育研究。 该提案旨在利用语言和识字、话语和交流、文化人类学、社会学和多元文化教育等不同领域的文献，对数学教育和多样性进行文献审查。 一个咨询小组的15名成员将向PI（包括西北大学的卡罗尔·李）提供有关文章的建议，以审查，将就多样性问题举办一系列讲座，并将与PI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.
