Implementation of Future-Oriented Mathematics Experiences in a P-12 College

为提高香港在科技世界的国际竞争力，我们需要加强学校的能力，提供具挑战性的二十一世纪数学课程。当务之急是让所有学生都能接触到通往成功的深层思想和关键过程，也就是说，那些面向未来的技能和过程，是雇主目前所要求的，但在许多员工身上却找不到的。调查人员将合作开发和实施4至9年级的学习经验。除了跟踪学生的发展，我们的目标是帮助教师发展强大的解释和支持学生的数学思维方式的方法。我们的目标是建立一个基于实践的合作专业发展模式，专注于他们为学生设计和实施复杂的问题解决环境。

To increase our international competitiveness in the technological world, we need to enhance the capacity of our schools to provide a challenging 21st century mathematics curriculum. It is imperative that all students have access to the deep ideas and key processes that lead to success beyond school, that is, the types of future-oriented skills and processes that employers are presently calling for but are not finding in many of their employees. The investigators will collaborate in developing and implementing such learning experiences across grades 4 to 9. In addition to tracing students' developments, we aim to assist the teachers in developing powerful means of interpreting and supporting their students' ways of thinking mathematically. We also aim to produce a practice-based collaborative professional development model focuses on their designing and implementing complex problem-solving environments for their students.
