Connecting Children's Mathematical Thinking to Community and Family Funds of Knowledge in Elementary Mathematics Methods Course

这个项目是关于“在小学数学方法课程中将儿童的数学思维与社区和家庭的知识基金联系起来”的会议。计划于2008年5月在亚利桑那州图森市举行。它正在制作三个产品：概念框架、研究议程和初级数学方法课程的教学单元。共有35名参与者被邀请参加，参与的教职员工被要求带一名研究生来参加。会议计划为期2.5天，并辅之以重要的会前和会后活动。亚利桑那大学拉丁裔数学教育中心和德克萨斯大学奥斯汀分校都给予了大力支持。

This project is presenting a conference on "Connecting Children's Mathematical Thinking to Community and Family Funds of Knowledge in Elementary Mathematics Methods Courses." It is planned for Tucson, AZ, in May, 2008. It is producing three products: a conceptual framework, a research agenda, and an instructional unit for elementary mathematics methods classes. A total of 35 participants are being invited to attend, and participating faculty members are asked to bring a graduate student. The conference is scheduled for 2.5 days supplemented with significant pre-conference and post-conference activities. There is significant support from the Center for the Mathematics Education of Latino/as at the University of Arizona and from the University of Texas-Austin.
