面临新技术革命的挑战,近来,美国正酝酿着一场新的教育改革。在刚收到的一期《数学教师》杂志(美全国数学教师理事会主办)上,刊登了数学教授斯蒂芬·莫勒的文章,陈述了美国数学教育界面临的几个主要问题,提出了2000年美国中学数学发展的几点预测,莫勒教授主要从事离散数学的研究工作,现被抽调进行大学数学教育的水平研究,同时涉及中学数学教育问题。莫勒曾多年从事中学数学教育,现在还担任一高中数学竞赛(MAA)委员会主席及美大学考试委员会的数学AP测验(供中学生取得大学学分的测验)的评审员。莫勒的观点有一定代表性,可供我国今后进行数学教学内容的调整工作参考。
Faced with the challenges of the new technology revolution, the United States is currently brewing a new education reform. On the first issue of Mathematics Teacher Magazine (sponsored by the National Mathematical Teachers Council of the United States), an article was published by Stephen Morrall, a mathematics professor, stating several major issues facing the mathematics education community in the United States and proposing 2000 In the predictions of American middle school mathematics development, Prof. Moller was mainly engaged in the research of discrete mathematics. He is now being drawn to the level of university mathematics education, and also involves mathematics education in middle schools. Moeller has been engaged in middle school mathematics education for many years and is now also the chairperson of the MAA committee and the AP exam for middle school students to obtain university credits. Moeller’s viewpoint has a certain representativeness, which can be used as reference for the adjustment of mathematics teaching content in the future.
