Participate. Investigate. Educate. The View from Washington Section Governors Presentation

Why MAA? Members have told us these three words best portray the value the MAA provides. Participate – more than any other math society, the MAA offers opportunities to participate and encourages its members to get involved. Investigate – central to the MAA mission is mathematics at the collegiate level and providing the best in mathematical exposition. Educate – the MAA provides the framework for both individuals and departments to become the best educators they can be. Get involved. You are the MAA!

New and Existing Programs Characteristics of Successful Programs in College Calculus (NSF-DRL) Project to identify what works in college calculus instruction. WeBWorK: Improving Student Success in Mathematics (NSF-DUE) Open source online homework system, provides students with immediate feedback about the validity of their answers. MAA Distinguished Lecture Series (NSA) NSA funds this DC-based series. MAA Regional Undergraduate Mathematics Conferences (NSF-DMS) The object of the grant is to provide undergraduate students the opportunity to present mathematical results and expand their knowledge of math sciences. MAA SUMMA Research Experiences for Undergraduates (NSA, NSF) Encourage minority students to pursue graduate studies in mathematics. MAA Professional Enhancement Program (PREP), (NSF) Workshops to support growth for mathematicians at all stages of their careers.

New and Existing Programs Project NExT Encourage your new faculty to apply for these fellowships. Travel Grants for Undergrad Students to Attend National Meetings (NSA, NSF) Students get the chance to share their work and interact with peers. Tensor Grants for Women in Mathematics (Tensor Foundation) Encourage the pursuit of math among female middle school students, high school students, and/or beginning college students. Tensor SUMMA Grants (Tensor Foundation) Like above but focusing on under-represented groups. Dolciani Mathematics Enrichment Grants (Dolciani Halloran Foundation) This program is structured along the lines of existing MAA Tensor grants.
