Many elementary school children in urban communities are not given the opportunity to relate what they see in school to the mathematics they see in their homes, families, and communities. This project will help solve this problem through a digital storytelling approach. It will investigate how elementary grade children can use mobile technology to create digital mathematics stories. These stories will be made from videos, photos, and audio. Students will connect mathematics from out-of-school settings to the mathematics they learn in school. This project will also create a teacher-friendly website of short videos that showcase the rich mathematics that exists in the everyday lives of urban children. This project, submitted to the Faculty Early Career Development Program (CAREER) will develop a digital mathematics storytelling protocol for all teachers to use, understand the effects of digital storytelling on children’s mathematical identities, knowledge of fractions, and digital literacies, understand how using digital mathematics storytelling effects mathematics instruction, the level of equity in the classroom, and the level of connectedness that teachers feel to their communities, and create a nationwide, online community space for all teachers to learn how to use digital mathematics storytelling. In terms of research methods, a Participant Design Research methodology will be used so that students, their families, and community members will have a voice in developing the digital mathematics storytelling protocol. Narrative Inquiry and Constant Comparison Analysis will be used to analyze the impact of creating and sharing these stories. Over five years, this project will impact 12 elementary classrooms serving over 700 children. Research findings will be used to understand how digital mathematics storytelling connects to mathematics learning. Additionally, a free, online elementary teacher professional development website will be created that features stories authored by participant children, their families, and their communities. Finally, this project will help urban children learn how to use current technology to craft mathematics narratives that help them see themselves as mathematically powerful while still connected to their community. This project is funded by the Innovative Technology Experiences for Students and Teachers (ITEST) program, which supports projects that build understandings of practices, program elements, contexts and processes contributing to increasing students' knowledge and interest in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) and information and communication technology (ICT) careers.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

城市社区的许多小学生没有机会将他们在学校看到的内容与他们在家里、家庭和社区看到的数学联系起来。该项目将通过数字讲故事的方法帮助解决这个问题。小学年级的孩子可以使用移动技术来创建数字数学故事，这些故事将由视频、照片和音频组成，学生们将把校外的数学与他们在学校学到的数学联系起来。一个适合教师的短视频网站，展示了数学中存在的丰富数学知识该项目提交给教师早期职业发展计划（CAREER），将开发一种数字数学讲故事协议，供所有教师使用，了解数字讲故事对儿童数学身份、分数知识和数字的影响。在研究方法方面，了解使用数字数学公平讲故事如何影响数学教学、教师与社区的联系程度，并为所有教师创建一个全国性的在线社区空间，以学习如何使用数字数学讲故事。一个将使用参与者设计研究方法，以便学生、他们的家人和社区成员在开发数字数学故事讲述协议中拥有发言权，并将使用叙事探究和持续比较分析来分析创建和分享这些故事的影响。五年内，该项目将影响 12 个小学教室，为 700 多名儿童提供服务。研究结果将用于了解数字数学讲故事如何与数学学习联系起来。此外，还将创建一个免费的在线小学教师专业发展网站，其中包含由作者撰写的故事。参与者最后，该项目将帮助孩子们学习如何使用当前的技术来编写数学叙述，帮助他们在保持与社区联系的同时，看到自己在数学上的强大。学生和教师 (ITEST) 计划，该计划支持旨在加深对实践、计划要素、背景和流程的理解的项目，有助于增加学生对科学、技术、工程和数学 (STEM) 以及信息和通信技术的知识和兴趣 ( ICT）职业生涯。这反映了奖项通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，NSF 的法定使命被认为值得支持。
