Algebra For The Twenty First Century: A Conference for Mathematics Educators: August 1992

本项目将于1992年8月1日至5日主办一次关于代数改革面临的问题的会议。将有大约70名参与者，其中包括课堂教师、数学教育工作者、大学数学家和课程开发人员。会议将讨论的问题包括(1)什么是代数，(2)如何改变评估方法，(3)如何将代数纳入综合课程，以及(4)如何实施改变。该项目将有参与者参与中学课程改革，帮助实现初中和高中数学的衔接。这次会议将包括微积分改革运动的参与者，以帮助实现高中和大学之间的衔接。他们将包括来自其他国家的参与者，分享世界各地的改革想法。这次会议的会议记录将被公布。

This project is to host a conference on August 1-5, 1992 on the issues facing the reform of algebra. There will be approximately 70 participants who will be mix of classroom teachers, mathematics educators, university mathematicians, and curriculum developers. Among the issues being addressed by the conference will be (1) what is algebra, (2) how should assessment by changed, (3) how does algebra fit in an integrated curriculum, and (4) how can change be implemented. This project will have participants involved in middle school curriculum reform to help interface middle school and high school mathematics. The conference will include participants from the calculus reform movement to help in the interface between high school and college. They will include participants from other countries to share worldwide ideas on reform. The proceedings of this conference will be published.
