Mathematics and Education Reform
(MER)
The
Math Circle Teaching
Assistant Robert Kaplan has worked with research mathematicians to carry on
some very promising work with school students.
In the February, 1996 Notices, Ed Dubinsky has a
thought-provoking article on "Undergraduate Mathematics Education Needs
Your Critical Concern."
For a case study in how research mathematicians can involve school
students in mathematics see the Southwest RIMS home
page.
See also the article on this project, "Integration of Research and
Education," by William Ysalas Velez, in the October, 1996 issue of the
Notices of the AMS.
Please see the Key Issues page in general,
the Key
Problems and Opportunities page in
particular, and do answer some of the Key
Questions.
