Third National Conference on Doctoral Programs in Mathematics Education

第三届全国数学教育博士课程会议将汇聚一批数学教育教师，他们来自一系列目前拥有数学教育博士学位的机构。与会者将了解当前影响博士项目的问题，他们将有机会利用共同的优势对各自的项目进行改进。会议将集中于两个目标：(1)阐明和更新与高质量数学教育博士项目有关的原则；(2)确定和传播有关数学教育专业的具体博士项目的信息。会议将与数学、数学教育、教师教育和教育研究方面的一系列受众分享这些产品。会议的产品包括：(1)更新的《数学教育博士项目设计和实施指导原则》文件，该文件将在相关专业协会的网站上提供；(2)机构和未来的博士生可以搜索和连接不同的项目专业。该项目将在大会期间围绕这两个目标以工作组的形式组织100多名与会者。工作组将有机会在随后的会议上继续工作，就产品进行合作。探索研究K-12计划(DRK-12)旨在通过研究和开发创新资源、模型和工具，显著提高K-12学前班学生和教师在科学、技术、工程和数学(STEM)方面的学习和教学。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经验上的证明。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

The Third National Conference on Doctoral Programs in Mathematics Education will bring together a group of faculty members in mathematics education from a range of institutions that currently graduate doctorates in mathematics education. The conference participants will learn about current issues that impact doctoral programs and they will have the opportunity to leverage common strengths to make improvements to their individual programs. The conference will focus on two goals: (1) articulate and update principles related to high-quality doctoral programs in mathematics education; and (2) identify and disseminate information about specific doctoral programs specializations in mathematics education. The conference will share the products with a range of audiences in mathematics, mathematics education, teacher education, and educational research. The products for the conference include: (1) an updated Principles to Guide the Design and Implementation of Doctoral Programs in Mathematics Education document which will be available in the website of pertinent professional associations; and (2) a mechanism for institutions and future doctoral students to search and connect with different program specializations. The project will organize more than 100 participants in working groups around the two goals during the conference. The working groups will have the opportunity to continue the work in subsequent meetings to collaborate on the products.The Discovery Research K-12 program (DRK-12) seeks to significantly enhance the learning and teaching of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) by preK-12 students and teachers, through research and development of innovative resources, models and tools. 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.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.
