美国中学数学教学中的数学文化活动

Activities of Mathematical Culture in American High School Mathematics Teaching

美国《数学教师》杂志2007—2012年发表的数学文化活动类论文（不包括数学史）涉及数学与自然科学、数学与文学、数学与艺术、数学与社会科学、数学与建筑、数学与生活、数学与游戏、数学与体育8类主题．这些主题具有选题丰富、与时俱进、以问题解决为导向、以学生为中心、以信息技术为辅助工具等特点．美国中学数学课堂中的数学文化活动在数学文化本身的研究、数学文化活动的创设、活动形式的多样、合作研究模式的建立等方面可供借鉴．

The papers on mathematical culture （not including the history of mathematics） published in the Mathematics Teacher from 2007 to 2012 are analyzed and 8 categories of themes are identified, namely, mathematics and science; mathematics and literature; mathematics and art; mathematics and social science; mathematics and architecture; mathematics and life; mathematics and games; mathematics and sports. These themes have the following features： dealing with rich and various topics; keeping pace with the times; being oriented towards problem solving; being student-centered; taking the information technology as the auxiliary tool. Based upon these features, some implications are put forth, including the study of mathematics culture itself, the creation of mathematics culture activities and the establishment of the cooperation model of research on mathematical culture.
