| 520 | |a A 3-day conference developed guidelines ensuring that cultural needs and issues are addressed in mathematics, science, and technology educational programs for American Indian and Alaska Native precollege students. Major barriers affecting these students in mathematics, science, and technology were summarized for three areas (student programs, curriculum development, and teacher programs), and guidelines were developed to address them. Guidelines for student programs include recognizing students for their participation, providing the opportunity to develop as whole persons, establishing mentoring within local communities, and facilitating parental involvement. For curriculum development, guidelines include aligning curricula with the community's needs and goals, including: cultural needs, holistic and spiritual approaches, local knowledge, language, elders, and mentors; using hands-on, cooperative group activities; and ongoing evaluation. Teacher program guidelines include understanding the students' culture; integrating traditional American Indian science, mathematics, and technological knowledge in classroom teaching; employing hands-on, inquiry-based learning, cooperative learning, and problem-solving activities; and making science, mathematics, and technology relevant by including community members and resources in teaching and learning. Three appendices describe the conference; review the literature on barriers to mathematics, science, and technology education for American Indian and Alaska Native students; and list additional resources.
