Mathematics curricula in Canadian schools, especially at the secondary level, have until now derived much of their content and ways of teaching largely from university mathematics and mathematicians. This feasibility study represents a first step in collecting and analyzing data from hi-tech industries, businesses and organizations. In Phase I, a tentative list of 12 areas which seemed to comprise high technology was developed. In Phase II, a pilot field-study was carried out. Continued progress toward designing an expanded study was made by further examination of the meaning of high technology in practice. It was decided that the term "hi-tech" should mean the creation and use of advanced technology in all major areas of the economy, including research, manufacturing, consulting, service and government sectors. Finally, the relationship and interactions between computer science and mathematics were studied and analyzed to ensure that the instruments used in an expanded study would reflect this significant dimension. The bulk of the document consists of the following appendices which follow seven pages of references: (1) Materials Used in Visits and Discussions; (2) The Design of the Study; (3) A Taxonomy of Activities, Processes, and Skills in Mathematics; (4) Towards an Operational Definition of "Hi-Tech" for Research Purposes; and (5) Computer Science, Mathematics and the School Curriculum.
