Mathematics and Science Teachers - Training for Leadership

拟议项目的目标是与一组45名有经验的中学数学教师合作，他们负责为家乡地区的资优中学学生提供数学经验。与现代研究成果密切相关的高等数学课题由世界知名数学家在一个由外部资金资助的高中生同伴项目中阐述。教师参与者参加讲座和讨论小组，学习数学主题，以及他们可以在自己的地区使用的方法，向有天赋的学生提供一些想法。参与者在同伴工作坊观察学生，并分析学生与现代数学思想的互动。

The goal of the proposed project is to work with a group of forty-five accomplished secondary school mathematics teachers who have responsibilities to provide mathematical experiences for gifted secondary school students in their home districts. Topics in advanced mathematics that are closely related to modern research results are expounded by world renown mathematicians in a companion project for the high school students and which is funded from outside sources. The teacher participants attend the lectures and discussion groups and learn about the mathematical topics as well as approaches that they could use in their home districts to offer some of the ideas to gifted students. The participants observe the students in the companion workshop and analyze the interaction between the students and the modern mathematical ideas.
