To prepare the country's youth more broadly for a globalized world, the U.S. National Commission on Mathematics Instruction (USNCMI) will engage with the international community and assist in improving the state of mathematics education in the country by implementing international education programs, participating in international benchmarking activities, and working closely with other countries and multilateral organizations. As a commission of the Board of International Scientific Organizations, the USNCMI serves as the liaison to the International Commission on Mathematical Instruction (ICMI), representing the U.S. mathematics education community abroad while learning about the world's best mathematics educational practices. Through a series of local and international activities over the course of three years, the USNCMI will achieve the following goals: (1) advance the U.S. position in the international mathematics education community through continued engagement, leveraging the U.S. strength in research; (2) create opportunities for educators in the U.S. to learn from promising practices in other countries and engage with mathematics educators internationally; and, (3) communicate findings from Goals 1 and 2 to the mathematics education community and policymakers in the United States.The USNCMI provides the vehicle through which the U.S. National Academy of Sciences (NAS) reaches out to, and coordinates international activities with, the U.S. mathematics education community. Further, it takes advantage of the NAS network to disseminate its national and international interests, activities, and products. The USNCMI will continue to provide effective international representation and participation in meetings that involve learning and sharing the world's best practices in mathematics education. The primary activities of the USNCMI over the next three years are as follows: (1) Participate in ICMI leadership meetings, which provide vision and mission for fostering efforts to improve the quality of mathematics teaching and learning worldwide; (2) Participate in the influential ICMI Studies, which is a document that addresses how to better understand and resolve the challenges that face multidisciplinary and culturally diverse research and development in mathematics education; (3) Provide support for a strong U.S. representation at the next ICMI Congress (ICME-13) and the General Assembly in 2016, which foster collaboration, exchange, and dissemination of ideas and information involving the theory and practice of contemporary mathematical education; (4) Support the U.S. bid to host ICME-14 in Hawaii in 2020, an international meeting that develops a scientific program addressing various aspects of mathematics education; (5) Host and facilitate the U.S.-Finland Workshop, which will discuss current mathematics education policies and best practices in the U.S. and Finland; (6) Hold the Park City Mathematics Institute International Seminar, which invites scholars from different countries to discuss viewpoints and other relevant issues related to mathematics education; and, (7) Disseminate opportunities and products of the USNCMI and ICMI to the U.S. mathematics education community.

为了让美国的年轻人更广泛地为全球化的世界做好准备，美国国家数学教学委员会（USNCMI）将与国际社会合作，通过实施国际教育计划，参与国际基准测试活动，并与其他国家和多边组织密切合作，帮助改善美国的数学教育状况。作为国际科学组织理事会的一个委员会，USNCMI作为国际数学指导委员会（ICMI）的联络人，代表美国数学教育界在国外学习世界上最好的数学教育实践。在三年的时间里，通过一系列本地和国际活动，USNCMI将实现以下目标：(1)通过持续参与，利用美国在研究方面的实力，提高美国在国际数学教育界的地位；(2)为美国的教育工作者创造机会，学习其他国家有前途的做法，并与国际数学教育工作者接触；(3)将目标1和目标2的发现传达给美国的数学教育界和决策者。USNCMI提供了美国国家科学院（NAS）与美国数学教育界接触并协调国际活动的工具。此外，它利用NAS网络传播其国家和国际利益、活动和产品。USNCMI将继续提供有效的国际代表和参与会议，包括学习和分享世界上最好的数学教育实践。USNCMI未来三年的主要活动如下：(1)参加ICMI领导会议，为促进提高全球数学教学质量提供愿景和使命；(2)参加有影响力的ICMI研究，这是一份关于如何更好地理解和解决数学教育中多学科和文化多样性研究和发展所面临的挑战的文件；(3)支持美国在下届ICMI大会（ICME-13）和2016年大会上的强大代表，以促进涉及当代数学教育理论和实践的思想和信息的合作、交流和传播；(4)支持美国申办2020年在夏威夷举办的第14届国际数学大会（ICME-14），这是一个国际会议，旨在制定解决数学教育各个方面的科学计划；(5)主持并促进美国-芬兰研讨会，该研讨会将讨论美国和芬兰当前的数学教育政策和最佳实践；(6)举办派克城数学研究所国际研讨会，邀请各国学者就数学教育的观点和其他相关问题进行讨论；(7)向美国数学教育界传播USNCMI和ICMI的机会和产品。
