Educating Mathematically Talented Youth: The University of Minnesota Talented Youth Mathematics Project (UMTYMP)

该项目旨在补充和扩展明尼苏达大学青年数学天才项目（UMTYMP）已经为初中和高中学生提供的13学年加速数学课程。该项目增加了有组织的职业探索和咨询，与纯数学家和应用数学家的小组和一对一的互动，在丰富的环境中进行智力探索的机会，以及其他支持活动。夏季课程，随后是几个学年一天的课程，将强调与数学问题解决、计算机支持的使用和数学环境有关的个性化活动。学生们将在大学教授的指导下，在优秀高中教师的协助下，进行个性化的问题解决，以导师的身份相互交流，并与工作中的专业人士会面。该设计包括针对职业女性所面临问题的定制课程。

This project is designed to complement and extend the thirteen year-old academic year accelerated mathematics program already offered by the University of Minnesota Talented Youth Mathematics program (UMTYMP) for both junior high and senior high students. The project adds organized career exploration and counseling, group and one-to one interaction with pure and applied mathematicians, opportunities for intellectual exploration in an enriched environment, and other supporting activities. The summer session, followed by several academic year one day sessions, will emphasize individualized activities related to mathematical problem solving, the use of computer support, and the milieu of mathematics. Students will work on individualized problem solving under the supervision of university professors, assisted by superior high school teachers, will interact with each other on a mentor basis, and will meet with working professionals. The design includes customized sessions for and on issues facing professional women.
