Elementary, Secondary, and Informal Education: Revision of the "Mathematics in Context" Materials

威斯康星大学的教职员工正在开发下一个版本的中学教学计划--“上下文中的数学”。还为教师、管理人员和家长编写了材料。这项工作是与荷兰乌得勒支大学弗洛伊登塔尔研究所和大英百科全书合作完成的。有些单位只进行微小的修改和更正，有些单位将完全修改。其中较重要的变化包括：精简五年级单元，以便于从小学改革材料过渡；减少每个年级的单元数量，以便于更全面的覆盖；以及开发基于技术的项目单元，供正常上课时间以外的学生团体使用。这些修订是基于专家的审查和在课堂上使用的经验。

Staff at the University of Wisconsin are developing the next version of the middle school instructional program, "Mathematics in Context." Materials are also developed for teachers, administrators and parents. The work is done is in collaboration with the Freudenthal Institute at the University of Utrecht, the Netherlands and the Encyclopedia Britannica. Some units will receive only minor changes and corrections and others will be completely revised. Among the more significant changes are: streamlining the fifth-grade units to facilitate the transition from elementary school reform materials; reducing the number of units at each grade level to facilitate more complete coverage; and the development of technology-based project units that could be used by groups of students outside regular class time. The revisions are based on reviews by experts and the experience of use in classrooms.
