The Conference Board of the Mathematical Sciences (CBMS)---working in collaboration with the Charles A. Dana Center at the University of Texas, Austin, and Achieve---will hold two Forums on High School to College Mathematics Pathways, one virtual in October 2020 and one in person in October 2021. The forums will bring together the leadership teams already established from 23 states that are working across their state's K-12, two-year college, and university systems. In the forum, the state teams will continue to identify problems with and then to formulate and implement solutions for the transition from high school to post-secondary mathematics. This is part of an ongoing project that began in Fall 2018 funded by NSF #1840722. These state teams will gather to share their experiences and knowledge gained over the past two years. The Dana Center will provide technical assistance to help state teams advocate for their proposals and plan for their implementation.The specific goal of the forums will be the continuation of work with state-based teams, incorporating leaders in K-12, two-year colleges, and the state's higher education system, that are coordinating action to improve the articulation of high school through post-secondary mathematics education. By facilitating better communication and articulation across the high school to college transition and paying attention to the personal and social skills that often impede student progress, the outcomes of the forum should see the implementation of programs that create improved student readiness for post-secondary education and improved success. This program has the potential for broad impact across all categories of students, with particularly strong implications for students who are currently at most risk, including students from under-resourced schools, from members of groups underrepresented in their participation in STEM, and those who are in their family's first generation to go to college. These are the students who are most at risk and who would benefit the most from well-crafted state-based efforts to improve this articulation. This project is supported with funding from the Improving Undergraduate STEM Education program. This effort will continue to build on the existing work by the Charles A. Dana Center at the University of Texas, Austin, and will draw on recent reports and recommendations of CBMS member societies. The conference will be built around 20 to 25 state-based teams, each team representing the state's department of education, the flagship university and higher education system, and the two-year college system. Teams will also draw on state leaders who have been engaged in efforts to improve mathematics education at either the high school or college level. This proposal is funded by the Improving Undergraduate STEM Education (IUSE) program in the Division of Undergraduate Education.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.

数学科学会议委员会（CBMS）-与查尔斯A。得克萨斯大学奥斯汀分校达纳中心和Achieve将举办两个关于高中到大学数学途径的论坛，一个是2020年10月的虚拟论坛，一个是2021年10月的面对面论坛。这些论坛将汇集来自23个州的领导团队，他们正在该州的K-12，两年制学院和大学系统中工作。在论坛上，国家小组将继续确定问题，然后制定和实施从高中到中学后数学过渡的解决方案。这是一个正在进行的项目的一部分，该项目于2018年秋季开始，由NSF #1840722资助。这些国家的团队将聚集在一起，分享他们在过去两年中获得的经验和知识。 达纳中心将提供技术援助，帮助各州团队宣传他们的建议并计划实施。论坛的具体目标是继续与各州团队合作，包括K-12、两年制大学和该州高等教育系统的领导者，他们正在协调行动，以改善高中到中学后数学教育的衔接。通过促进高中到大学过渡期间更好的沟通和衔接，并关注经常阻碍学生进步的个人和社交技能，论坛的成果应该看到实施计划，改善学生对中学后教育的准备和提高成功率。该计划有可能对所有类别的学生产生广泛的影响，尤其是对目前风险最大的学生，包括来自资源不足学校的学生，来自参与STEM的代表性不足的群体成员，以及那些家庭第一代上大学的学生。这些学生面临的风险最大，他们将从精心设计的基于国家的努力中受益最多，以改善这种表达。该项目得到了改善本科STEM教育计划的资助。这一努力将继续建立在查尔斯A。达纳中心在得克萨斯大学奥斯汀分校，并将借鉴最近的报告和CBMS成员协会的建议。会议将建立大约20至25个州为基础的团队，每个团队代表国家的教育部，旗舰大学和高等教育系统，以及两年制学院。团队还将借鉴国家领导人谁一直在努力改善数学教育在高中或大学水平。该奖项由本科教育部的改善本科STEM教育（IUSE）计划资助。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并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，被认为值得支持。
