Over the last few years, most aspects of the mathematics curriculum have been undergoing major changes. The calculus reform movement has generated changes both in terms of what is taught and how materials are taught; these changes are well documented. In the eighties a conference on reform calculus was held at Tulane University in New Orleans. The Tulane conference helped shape some of the ideas of reform calculus. This project does the same for precalculus. The purpose of the workshop is to rethink the preparation for calculus, given that students are having such different mathematical experiences in high school, calculus in college has changed, technology is providing mathematical tools for both teaching and learning, and college algebra is in the process of changing. Several mathematics educators were invited to a working workshop that was designed to address each of these issues.

在过去的几年里，数学课程的大多数方面都发生了重大变化。微积分改革运动在教什么和如何教材料方面都产生了变化;这些变化有据可查。八十年代，新奥尔良的杜兰大学召开了一次关于改革微积分的会议。杜兰会议帮助形成了改革的一些思想。这个项目对precalculus做了同样的事情。研讨会的目的是重新思考微积分的准备，因为学生在高中有不同的数学经验，大学微积分已经改变，技术正在为教学和学习提供数学工具，大学代数正在改变。几位数学教育工作者被邀请到一个工作研讨会，旨在解决这些问题。
