项目摘要

This workshop aims to contribute to the national need for high quality mathematics teaching by improving the preparation of future mathematics teachers. The workshop focuses on helping mathematics education faculty develop expertise with mathematics action technologies. These technologies include tools and devices that compute and display the results of mathematical equations, such as graphing calculators and computer simulations. This interactive workshop will provide mathematics education faculty with opportunities to learn how to use mathematics action technology as learners. In addition, the faculty participants will consider the ways they might implement these technologies in their courses for prospective secondary mathematics teachers. Approximately 50 faculty from across the U.S. will participate in the workshop, gaining practice with mathematics action tools that span the needs of different mathematics and statistics courses. The main goal of this project is to improve faculty expertise in teaching undergraduate courses for future secondary mathematics teachers. To this end, it will plan and implement a 2.5-day workshop for instructors of undergraduate mathematics content and pedagogical methods courses that are intended to prepare future teachers to teach mathematics with technology. The project will provide beginning through advanced level sessions in which faculty will learn how to use mathematics action technologies as learners and consider the ways they might implement them in their courses. Specifically the project will: 1) Provide workshop sessions on a variety of mathematics action tools that span the needs of those working in geometric, algebraic/function, and statistics contexts; 2) Provide workshop sessions that range (and build) from basic functionality to more advanced functionality for each mathematics action tool; 3) Provide workshop sessions that allow participants to work at their own pace on specific functions of a mathematics action tool of their choice with the support of experts; 4) Provide workshop leaders for each technology tool who use the tool in content courses and methods courses; and 5) Evaluate the effectiveness of the workshop through perceived impact on faculty expertise and self-reports of mathematics action tool use in instruction. Workshop participants are expected to leave with the expertise needed to begin to incorporate mathematics action technologies into their courses. What is learned about the development of participants' self-efficacy in use of mathematics action technology will inform future workshop design and has the potential to also inform future educational research studies.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.

该研讨会旨在通过提高未来数学教师的准备，为国家对高质量数学教学的需求做出贡献。该研讨会的重点是帮助数学教育教师发展数学行动技术的专业知识。这些技术包括计算和显示数学方程结果的工具和设备，如图形计算器和计算机模拟。这个互动研讨会将为数学教育教师提供学习如何使用数学行动技术作为学习者的机会。此外，教师参与者将考虑在未来中学数学教师的课程中实施这些技术的方式。来自美国各地的大约50名教师将参加研讨会，获得跨越不同数学和统计课程需求的数学行动工具的实践。该项目的主要目标是提高教师的专业知识，在未来的中学数学教师教本科课程。为此，它将为本科数学内容和教学方法课程的教师计划和实施为期2.5天的研讨会，旨在为未来的教师提供技术教学。该项目将提供从开始到高级课程，教师将学习如何使用数学行动技术作为学习者，并考虑他们可能在课程中实施这些技术的方式。具体而言，该项目将：1）提供有关各种数学行动工具的研讨会，涵盖几何、代数/函数和统计背景下工作人员的需求; 2）提供范围广泛的研讨会（和构建）从基本功能到每个数学行动工具的更高级功能; 3）提供研讨会，让参与者在专家的支持下，按照自己的节奏研究他们选择的数学行动工具的具体功能; 4）为每个技术工具提供研讨会领导者，他们在内容课程和方法课程中使用该工具; 5）通过对教师专业知识的影响和教学中使用数学行动工具的自我报告来评估研讨会的有效性。讲习班的参与者预计将离开所需的专门知识，开始纳入他们的课程数学行动技术。在数学行动技术的使用中，参与者自我效能的发展将为未来的研讨会设计提供信息，并有可能为未来的教育研究提供信息。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为值得通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估来支持。
