註釋Educational issues are receiving unprecedented attention in the broad mathematical sciences community, as mathematicians and other scientists have become concerned about the quality of instruction in schools, colleges and universities. A mathematically literate population is crucial to supporting an increasingly technological society. In addition, the mathematical sciences community faces the challenge of increasing the number of students who are prepared to pursue a career in mathematics, science or engineering. This challenge requires not only raising the quality of mathematics education, but also showing students the beauty and usefulness of the subject. In these ways, mathematical scientists can make crucial contributions to educational reform.
