Multicampus Science, Mathematics, and Technology Reform

在这个项目中，七所大学合作将探究式学习，数学建模和技术融入数学课程。 这七所学院代表了纽约州联盟（NYSC）约30所两年制和四年制学院的一个子集，它们正在改编由NSF项目以及其他公共和私人支持的数学、科学和技术（MST）项目的主要研究人员开发的材料和教育实践。 特别是，各学院正在调整和实施根据“数学贯穿课程”项目编制的材料。 这七所学校是纽约州立大学奥斯韦戈，纽约州立大学法明代尔，纽约州立大学奥塔，纽约州立大学布罗克波特，阿迪朗达克社区学院，圣约翰费舍尔学院和阿尔弗雷德大学。 这些机构的教师和行政人员致力于在整个机构范围内进行改革，并赞同方案改革，以期：（a）增加教师对与数学及其应用方面的教学和学术有关的内容和教学法的了解;（B）促进在数学、科学和技术方面通过探究学习;（b）促进在数学、科学和技术方面通过探究学习。（c）向教员强调数学建模在课程中的重要性;（d）展示数学和其他学科的教员如何合作开发适合在两年制和四年制学校实施的跨学科课程和教学材料;以及（e）促进两年制和四年制院校与非学术环境中的数学用户之间的有效沟通。 这些期望正在通过与国家项目的主要研究人员合作的合作小组来实现，以解决以下主题：数学建模，基于探究的学习，伙伴关系，技术和程序变化。

In this project a seven college collaboration is integrating inquiry-based learning, mathematical modeling and technology into the mathematics curriculum. These seven colleges, which represent a subset of the New York State Coalition (NYSC) of some 30 two and four-year colleges, are adapting materials and educational practices developed by the principal investigators of NSF projects as well as other public and privately supported mathematics, science, and technology (MST) projects. In particular, the colleges are adapting and implementing materials developed under the Mathematics Across the Curriculum projects. The seven schools are SUNY Oswego, SUNY Farmingdale, SUNY Oneonta, SUNY Brockport, Adirondack Community College, St. John Fisher College and Alfred University. Faculty and administrators at these institutions are committed to making institutional-wide change and are endorsing programmatic changes.The expectations are to: (a) increase faculty's knowledge of the content and pedagogy related to teaching and scholarship in mathematics and its application; (b) promote learning by inquiry in the context of mathematics, science and technology; (c) emphasize to faculty the importance of mathematical modeling in courses; (d) demonstrate how faculty in mathematics and in other disciplines can cooperate to develop interdisciplinary courses and instructional materials suitable for implementation at two and four-year schools; and (e) promote effective communication between two- and four-year institutions and users of mathematics in non academic environments. These expectations are being achieved by the collaborating group partnering with principal investigators of national projects to address the following themes: Mathematical Modeling, Inquiry-Based Learning, Partnerships, Technology, and Programmatic Change.
