Development of a Logo-based Elementary School Geometry Curriculum

在目前的小学课程中，很少重视培养学生的几何解题能力，空间思维能力，或分析和重新概念化实质性几何思想的能力。Logo计算机语言的使用有可能改变小学几何课程的内容和方法。该项目将开发一套新的小学几何课程，并将创建一套基于Logo的课堂活动，以促进课程的目标。预期成果将包括一套教学材料、一本教师用书、教师培训建议，以及一个录象节目，其中将包括参与实地测试的教师讲授的示范课程。

In the current elementary school curriculum, little attention is devoted to developing students' geometric problem solving abilities, spatial thinking, or ability to analyze and reconceptualize substantive geometric ideas. Use of the Logo computer language has the potential of transforming both the content and method of the elementary school geometry curriculum. This project will develop a new geometry curriculum for use in elementary schools and will create a set of Logo based classroom activities that promote the objectives of the curriculum. Expected outcomes will include a set of instructional materials, a book for teachers, recommendations for teacher training, and a videotaped program that will include exemplary lessons taught by teachers involved in the field test.
