University of Florida Honors Workshop in Mathematics

这个两级的北佛罗里达初中/高中项目将10名领导数学教师与20名最低水平的数学教师进行匹配，（以1比2的方式），以加强/拓宽数学背景并提高所有教师的教学技能。在1987年和1988年的夏季，讲习班将包括两个密集的五周课程，同时和分开进行，但在每周一次的研讨会上重叠，所有教师和四名教员参加。在学年期间，将有教师的班级参观和两个小型会议。这些课程（根据教师的数学经验量身定制）将采用解决问题的方法，并包括计算机/信息科学。准备不足的老师将专注于代数、几何、测量和概率。其他主题将包括逻辑、线性规划、博弈论、微积分（应要求）和教学策略。此外，领导教师将发展导师技能。佛罗里达大学授予这些课程7个学分。这些教师将来自佛罗里达州北部的中央皇冠学区。佛罗里达教育部和佛罗里达大学会分担大量费用。

This two tiered northern Florida junior/senior high school program matches 10 leader mathematics teachers with 20 minimally prepared mathematics teachers, (on a one-to-two basis) in order to strengthen/broaden the mathematical background and to improve the teaching skills of all the teachers. The workshops, in the summers of l987 and l988, will consist of two intense five-week programs running concurrently and separately, but overlapping in a seminar meeting three times per week for all teachers and four faculty members. During the academic year there will be visits to the teachers' classes and two mini-conferences. The courses (tailored to the mathematical experiences of the teachers) will use the problem solving approach and include computer/information sciences. The underprepared teachers will focus on algebra, geometry, measurement, and probability. Other topics will include logic, linear programming, game theory, calculus (upon request), and teaching strategies. Moreover, the leader teachers will develop mentor skills. The University of Florida is awarding 7 credits for these courses. The teachers will come from Central Crown school districts in northern Florida. There is significant cost sharing from the Florida Department of Education and the University of Florida.
