Critical Issues in Mathematics Education 2018

本次会议将继续由数学科学研究所（MSRI）于2004年发起的关于数学教学和学习的数学教育关键问题（CIME）系列研讨会。2018年CIME的主题是“为目前被数学排斥的学生打开通往数学的大门”。CIME研讨会邀请专业数学家、教育研究人员、教师和政策制定者讨论从小学到本科数学教育改善的关键问题。会议将分享相关的项目努力和创新研究，这些研究已被证明可以在k-12、本科和研究生教育中保持或提高学生对数学的参与度和兴趣。会议将特别关注可重复的努力，以肯定这些学生的身份及其多样化的智力资源和生活经验。DRK-12计划中的项目建立在STEM教育的基础研究和先前的研究和开发工作的基础上，为拟议的项目提供了理论和实证依据。CIME研讨会影响三个不同的群体：研究数学家，数学教育者（K-16）和教育研究人员。参加者将了解研究和发展的努力，这些努力可以加强他们自己的工作，以及他们可以为解决数学教育问题作出的贡献。参与者还与关心这些问题的其他人联系。该讲习班还将侧重于制定行动计划，以便参与者在返回机构后能够执行。此外，还将重点放在招聘数学系领导、教师和K-12、本科教育和研究生教育数学教育的其他领导者上，以检查可以做出的系统性变化，以增加对数学的接触、参与和兴趣。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

This conference will continue the workshop series, Critical Issues in Mathematics Education (CIME) on teaching and learning mathematics, initiated by the Mathematical Sciences Research Institute (MSRI) in 2004. The topic for CIME 2018 will be "Access to mathematics by opening doors for students currently excluded from mathematics". The CIME workshops engage professional mathematicians, education researchers, teachers, and policy makers in discussions of issues critical to the improvement of mathematics education from the elementary grades through undergraduate years. Sessions will share relevant programmatic efforts and innovative research that have been shown to maintain or increase students' engagement and interests in mathematics across k-12, undergraduate and graduate education. The sessions will focus particularly on reproducible efforts that affirm those students' identities and their diverse intellectual resources and lived experience. Projects in the DRK-12 program build on fundamental research in STEM education and prior research and development efforts that provide theoretical and empirical justification for proposed projects.The CIME workshops impact three distinct communities: research mathematicians, mathematics educators (K-16), and education researchers. Participants learn about research and development efforts that can enhance their own work and the contributions they can make to solving issues in mathematics education. Participants also connect with others concerned about those issues. This workshop will also focus on developing action plans that participants can implement once they return to their institutions. There is also a focus on recruitment of leaders of mathematics departments, teachers, and other leaders in mathematics education across K-12, undergraduate education and graduate education in order to examine systemic changes that can be made to increase access, engagement, and interest in mathematics.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
