U.S.-China Cooperative Research: Joint China-U.S.-Japan Seminar on Mathematical Program Solving, Shanghai, October 1993

小行星9316888 该奖项支持五位美国数学教育家参加美中日数学问题解决研讨会。 讨论会将于1993年10月在中国举行。研讨会的论文和讨论将涉及三国问题解决研究的现状：学生问题解决能力的比较，包括应用题和语言因素;问题解决中的数学模型制作;学生对问题解决过程的意识;教师的职前和在职培训;在教学/学习问题解决中的学习评估和评价;在解决问题中的技术使用;以及在强调解决问题和技术使用时分析数学教育的目标。 将确定促进解决问题的教育成就的因素和问题。 由于日本和中国的研究人员对问题解决研究有着浓厚的兴趣，并在该领域做出了重要的工作，因此本次研讨会有望促进知识的进步。 将在数学教育领域探讨日本和亚洲教育系统的显著成功，为今后的合作和研究成果交流奠定基础。

9316888 Becker This award supports participation of five US mathematics educators in a joint US-China-Japan seminar on mathematical problem solving. The seminar will be held in China in October 1993. Papers and discussion at the seminar will deal with the present states of problem solving research in the three countries: comparison of student performance in problems solving, including word problems and language factors; mathematical model making in problem solving; students' consciousness of the processes which are used in solving problems and arriving at solutions; pre and in-service teacher education; assessment and evaluation of learning in teaching/learning problem solving; technology use in problem solving; and analyses of the goals of mathematics education when emphasis is placed on problem solving and technology use. Factors and issues that promote educational achievement in problem solving will be identified. This seminar holds promise for advancement of knowledge since Japanese and Chinese researchers have strong interests in problem solving research, and have produced important work in the area. The noted success of the educational systems in Japan and Asia will be explored in the area of math education, providing a basis for future collaboration and exchange of research findings.
