In order to strengthen the mathematical education of America's teachers:

PMET will provide college faculty assistance with appropriate instructional strategies for helping future K-12 teachers make connections of their college mathematics to K-12 mathematics.

PMET will provide college faculty with better information about the mathematical issues that arise in day-to-day K-12 classroom lessons.

PMET will assist efforts of mathematicians in providing professional development programs for practicing teachers.



"There is more intellectual content in school mathematics instruction than most realize, content that teachers need to understand well."   ---MET report
