This is SO IMPORTANT! Corequisites change students' lives for the better.
Please listen to 2 new podcasts about the 7-yr results of our randomized controlled trial showing corequisite remediation with statistics increases graduation rates & wages: bit.ly/3roDkh8 Thanks to @CompleteCollege & @ProtasCCA for doing the podcasts! #highered #Math
Love this: "We mathematicians are constantly reminded that what we feel sure is correct is in fact false, and that is sometimes takes considerable effort to ... see where we went wrong and embark on a modified, or different approach." mathvalues.org/masterblog/see…
#NativeAmericanHeritageMonth is a great time to visit the Indigenous Mathematicians site. Great to see the graph on the profile page showing growth in Indigenous holders of Math Ph.D.s. indigenousmathematicians.org
Hey friends -- big news. Today is my last day at the Dana Center. It's been 10+ years of great work with many of you to prepare, engage and empower students in math! But time for something new. I'm doing consulting for a while and looking for new opportunities.
Invalid placement practices widespread in California community colleges, says new report from the California Acceleration Project. accelerationproject.org/Portals/0/Docu… @KatieHernCA @AccelerationCA
READ THIS! We knew corequisites help students succeed in courses. Now there is evidence they go on to earn more $ after graduation!! It's time to make #corequisites and #mathpathways the norm!
“College students are college students. They deserve to be treated as such from the moment they arrive on campus.” NEW RELEASE: 7yr impact on #corequisite remediation with #statistics show students fare better than those in trad remediation. @LexaLogue utdanacenter.org/blog/college-l…
Join us for a conversation about why the work to align #mathpathways from #k12 to #highered is so critical. Free webinar 10/21 - learn more and register. #launchyears utdanacenter.org/our-work/k-12-…
Know students interested in math AND winning $5,000? Share the @utdanacenter’s Math4 Video Contest with them! By interviewing a manufacturing professional about math skills, they could win one of four cash prizes. math4manufacturing.org
Another excellent reminder that we need to question our assumptions about what helps students be successful. Is Statistics a Recipe for STEM Success?: mailchi.mp/justequations/…
I cannot say enough about how wonderful Mary Ellen is! So much passion coupled with a gentle and generous spirit. Someone buy that woman an Amy's hot fudge sundae with Mexican Vanilla ice cream! @literacy1st @utdanacenter
Congrats to 2021 Outstanding Commission Staff Awardee Dr. Mary Ellen Isaacs of @literacy1st at @utdanacenter! 🎖 Mary Ellen’s 25 years of service to the program has helped more than 25,000 Central Texas students learn to read & helped hundreds of @AmeriCorps members. #ASCAwards
"Students are happy when they can afford their rent, when they can afford groceries and when they are invited to the table." — Claire Sparklin, @washtenawcc #MiHealthyColleges21
YES! I am so sad that Colorado is going to pay students to get COVID tests. This could be a wonderful teachable moment about taking care of our communities. Instead we're making it a lesson in putting our own interests first.
We should teach our children how to be responsible for each other, both in learning and in life.
Mathematics is all around us and impacts all aspects of our lives! Check out this article on the importance of making real-world connections in the study of mathematics: bit.ly/3ypKIIW
