A Conference to Synthesize and Advance Research on Teachers' Use of Mathematics Curriculum Materials, February 15-16, 2006 in Phoenix, Arizona

这次会议提供了一个论坛，以汇编和综合当代关于教师使用数学课程材料的研究。会议通过将作者聚集在一起并加强该书的重点和连贯性，支持编写一本关于这一主题的编辑过的书。会议的另一个重要成果是建立了一个在这一领域进行研究的学者和实践者社区。会议的与会者将包括选定书籍章节的作者、研究咨询委员会成员和从业者咨询委员会成员。预期的图书受众包括数学教育研究人员、课程开发人员、专业开发人员和学区决策者。

This conference provides a forum to compile and synthesize contemporary research on teachers' use of mathematics curriculum materials. The conference supports the development of an edited book on this topic by bringing authors together and enhancing the focus and coherence of the book. Another important outcome of the conference is the creation of a community of scholars and practitioners who do research in this area. Participants in the conference will include authors of selected book chapters, members of the research advisory board, and members of the practitioner advisory board. The expected book audience is composed of mathematics education researchers, curriculum developers, professional developers, and school district decision makers.
