Leaders in mathematics and elementary education are organizing and hosting a conference that brings together researchers from mathematics education, cognitive science, and special education. The work is grounded in a common goal via constructive conversations and is purposefully framed to bring forth areas of agreement and disagreement when it comes to early mathematics teaching and learning. Organized over three face-to-face meetings with follow-up virtual meetings, the conference is designed to generate a set of teaching and learning principles as well as a collaborative research agenda among the fields, reflecting existing agreements regarding early mathematics and uncovering areas of disagreement where further exchange and generation of knowledge is needed.The conference will foster opportunities for new insights and collaborations across fields, and new avenues for research and practice. Expected outcomes include: (a) Collaborative research proposals, discussion groups, symposia, and working groups at professional conferences across the different fields, (b) A virtual event to enable all researchers who are interested in learning more about the products of the work, (c) Preparation of a Research Coordination Network proposal to expand and continue collaborative research, and (d) A project website that will share all products created from the conference that is hosted and maintained by NC State University.This project is supported by NSF’s EDU Core Research (ECR) program and Discovery Research preK-12 (DRK-12) program. The ECR program emphasizes fundamental STEM education research that generates foundational knowledge in the field. Investments are made in critical areas that are essential, broad, and enduring: STEM learning and STEM learning environments, broadening participation in STEM, and STEM workforce development. The 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.

数学和基础教育的领导者正在组织和主持一个会议，汇集了来自数学教育、认知科学和特殊教育的研究人员。这项工作是基于一个共同的目标，通过建设性的对话，并有目的地框架提出的领域的协议和分歧，当它涉及到早期数学教学和学习。会议组织了三次面对面会议和后续的虚拟会议，旨在制定一套教学原则以及各领域之间的合作研究议程，反映有关早期数学的现有协议，并揭示需要进一步交流和产生知识的分歧领域。会议将为跨领域的新见解和合作创造机会，并为研究和实践提供新的途径。预期结果包括：(a)在不同领域的专业会议上开展合作研究提案、讨论小组、专题讨论会和工作组；(b)举办虚拟活动，使所有对研究成果有兴趣的研究人员能够了解更多；(c)准备一个研究协调网络提案，以扩大和继续合作研究；(d)建立一个项目网站，共享由北卡罗来纳州立大学主持和维护的会议产生的所有产品。本项目由美国国家科学基金会EDU核心研究（ECR）项目和发现研究preK-12 （DRK-12）项目支持。ECR项目强调在该领域产生基础知识的基础STEM教育研究。投资在至关重要、广泛和持久的关键领域：STEM学习和STEM学习环境，扩大STEM参与，以及STEM劳动力发展。DRK-12旨在通过研究和开发创新资源、模型和工具，显著加强pre -12学生和教师对科学、技术、工程和数学（STEM）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实证依据。 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。
