9978400ADAMSFaculty and graduate students in the Department of Applied Mathematics at the University of Washington, Seattle are conducting a comparative study of middle school instructional materials in mathematics. Specifically, a thorough examination of three sets of materials at grade levels 6,7, and 8 is underway. The goal is to do the research needed to compare materials used in Singapore with texts widely used at these grade levels in this country and with a set of middle school materials recently developed with NSF support. Particular attention is given to the mathematics topics treated, the level and sophistication of the treatment, the degree to which the various topics appear as strands in the curriculum, and the degree to which closure is applied at various points in the materials. Applications of mathematics and the contexts in which the mathematics topics are presented are also investigated.

9978400亚当斯教师和研究生在应用数学系在华盛顿，西雅图大学正在进行比较研究的中学数学教材。 具体而言，正在对6、7和8年级的三套材料进行彻底审查。 我们的目标是进行必要的研究，将新加坡使用的教材与该国这些年级广泛使用的教材以及最近在NSF支持下开发的一套中学教材进行比较。 特别注意的是数学主题的治疗，治疗的水平和复杂性，在何种程度上的各种主题出现在课程中的股，并在何种程度上关闭适用于在材料的各个点。 数学的应用和数学主题提出的背景也进行了调查。
