Assessing Mathematical Proficiency -- A Conference on Assessment in Mathematics Education, University of California, Berkeley, March, 2004

作者建议于2004年3月在加州大学伯克利分校数学科学研究所召开一次数学教育评价会议。 与会者将来自数学研究界，以及数学教育研究人员，心理测量学家和学校和地区教育人员。 会议将采取各种形式，从个人演讲到小组讨论再到小组讨论。 将编制和分发大量会议记录。 该提案的目标是审查与数学教育评估有关的各种问题，包括评估对课程和教学的影响、道德和公平问题以及评估工具和方法问题。 该项目的一项重要成果将是确定研究问题和开发新评估工具的方向。

The authors propose a conference on assessment in mathematics education to be held at the Mathematical Sciences Research Institute at the University of California, Berkeley, during the month of March, 2004. Participants will be drawn from the mathematics research community, together with researchers in mathematics education, psychometricians and school and district education personnel. Sessions at the conference will assume various formats, from individual presentations to panel discussion to small group discussion. A volume of proceedings will be generated and disseminated. The goals of the proposal are to examine a variety of issues connected with assessment in mathematics education, including the effect of assessment on curriculum and instruction, issues of ethics and equity and questions of tools and methods for assessment. An important outcome of the project will be the identification of research questions and directions for development of new assessment tools.
