Middle School Mathematics: Meetings of the Minds

美国科学促进会（AAAS）科学机遇办公室（OOS）向美国国家科学基金会申请9720美元，以支持“中学数学：思想的会议”。这次会议定于6月11日至12日在华盛顿特区的美国科学促进会总部举行。会议的目的是将数学家、数学教育家、社区组织的代表和青少年早期发展方面的专家聚集在一起，讨论影响中学生，特别是少数民族学生、女性和少数族裔学生数学学习的问题和可能性。还有残疾学生。本次会议的结果将作为美国科学促进会的临时报告发表，并将分发给以数学为基础的组织、研究人员、教育工作者、社区组织、政策制定者和商业领袖。NSF的支持将在本出版物中得到承认。

The American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), Office of Opportunities in Science (OOS), is requesting $9,720 from the NSF for support of a meeting on "Middle School Mathematics: A Meeting of the Minds." This meeting is scheduled for June 11-12 at the AAAS headquarters in Washington, D.C. The purpose is to bring together mathematicians, mathematics educators, representatives of community-based organizations and experts on early adolescent development to discuss the problems and possibilities of impacting the mathematics learning of middle school students, particularly minority, women, and disabled students. The findings of this meeting will be published as a AAAS occasional report and will be distributed to mathematics- based organizations, researchers, educators, community-based organizations, policy makers, and business leaders. NSF's support will be acknowledged in this publication.
