META Math Project
META Math Project (2017-2022)
The Mathematical Education of Teachers as an Application of Undergraduate Mathematics was a project of the Mathematical Association of America, in partnership with researchers at Montana State University and the University of Texas - Arlington.
Funded by NSF DUE-1726624, the purpose of META was to create, field-test, and research curriculum materials for use in undergraduate mathematics and statistics courses that focus on applications of mathematics to high school teaching. Results are available here!
