This proposal is submitted to the Divisions of Mathematical Sciences and Elementary, Secondary, and Informal Education, seeking partial support for the IAS/Park City Mathematics Institute (PCMI). Support for the Research Program, the Graduate Summer School, the Undergraduate Summer School, and the Mentoring Program for Women in Mathematics is requested for five years, beginning in 1999. Partial support for the High School Teachers Program is sought for two years. Support for the remaining programs will be found from other sources.The IAS/Park City Mathematics Institute (PCMI) is a program of the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, New Jersey. The mission of the PCMI is to promote research in both mathematics and mathematics education, and to improve mathematics education at every level from K-12 through graduate school. It is built on the premise that dynamic interaction among mathematicians, educators, and students is essential to the optimal functioning of the mathematical enterprise. It has eight years of experience in promoting this goal, supported in major part by the National Science Foundation. Sponsorship by the Institute for Advanced Study reflects the Institute's commitment to extend the activities of the research community toward such broader societal goals.The activities of the PCMI include a three-week Summer Session for all participants, a year-round program for local high school teachers site groups, a Mentoring Program for Women in Mathematics, and a ContinuingOutreach Program for Alumni Sites of high school teachers.The primary focus of the PCMI is the three-week Summer Session, where participants gather to share information and experiences at many levels. The Summer Session is organized around a Research Topic that provides the academic focus for all programs. In 1999 the Research Topic will be Arithmetic Algebraic Geometry.The Summer Session includes six programs: the Undergraduate Summer School, the Graduate Summer School, the Research Program in Mathematics, the High School Teacher Program, the Undergraduate Faculty Program, and the Research Program in Mathematics Education. The presence of all of the programs in one place and at one time gives the whole enterprise a high spirit that is often lacking when one of these groups meets by itself. For example, the educational programs provide a subject for animated conversations involving everyone. This leads to more informality and casual interaction, breaking barriers between advanced researchers, fresh PhDs, students, and high school teachers. This kind of interaction has the expected payoff in terms of felicitous exchange of ideas and the beginnings of collaborations. The whole of the Summer Session is far greater than the sum of its parts.

该提案已提交给数学科学和基础，中学和非正式教育的分区，并寻求对IAS/Park City数学研究所（PCMI）的部分支持。从1999年开始，要求对研究计划，研究生暑期学校，本科暑期学校和数学妇女指导计划。 IAS/Park City数学研究所（PCMI）是新泽西州普林斯顿州高级研究研究所的计划。 PCMI的任务是促进数学和数学教育方面的研究，并在K-12到研究生院的各个级别上改善数学教育。它建立在数学家，教育工作者和学生之间的动态互动的前提下，对于数学企业的最佳功能至关重要。 它在促进这一目标方面拥有八年的经验，并在国家科学基金会的主要部分得到了支持。 高级研究研究所的赞助反映了该研究所致力于将研究社区的活动扩展到如此广泛的社会目标。PCMI的活动包括为所有参与者举行的为期三周的夏季课程，本地高中教师的全年计划，针对女性的妇女的指导计划，以及持续的数学课程，以及三周的unlumni the Proce the Alumnimi the Proce of Alumniume the Procem the Alumniume the Procem the Procem the PROC。参与者聚集在一起分享许多层次的信息和经验。夏季会议是围绕一个研究主题组织的，该研究为所有计划提供了学术重点。 1999年，研究主题将是算术代数的几何学。夏季会议包括六个课程：本科暑期学校，研究生暑期学校，数学研究计划，高中教师课程，本科教师课程和数学教育研究计划。 所有程序在一个地方和一次的存在使整个企业具有高度的精神，这些精神通常是当这些群体中的一个人自行相遇时缺乏的。 例如，教育计划为涉及所有人的动画对话提供了一个主题。 这导致了更多的非正式和休闲互动，在高级研究人员，新鲜博士，学生和高中老师之间打破了障碍。 这种互动在精心交流思想和合作的开始方面具有预期的回报。 整个夏季会议远大于其部分的总和。
