Math Pathways Recommendations from Indiana’s Math Innovation Council

The Paradox Illiteracy carries social shame Innumeracy (“being bad at math”) is acceptable Increasingly quantitative, data-driven world

The Project 2014 Collaboration with Complete College America and Charles Dana Center at the University of Texas-Austin Indiana selected along with Colorado, Montana, Nevada, Ohio and Missouri Indiana Math Innovation Council formed – Math faculty from all public institutions – Institutional Research representative

The Goal Increase success rates in gateway courses without compromising the integrity of mathematics Align mathematics requirements to the competencies required for academic and career success

What quantitative skills do students need? Introductory Skills Statistics Probability Finance Logic Critical Thinking Analytical Skills Data analysis Conditional probability, independence and random experiments Proportional reasoning Curve fitting and correlation Graph theory

What are the common features of these quantitative skills? Practical, robust habit of mind Employed in every aspect of an alert, informed life Essential for all graduates’ personal and civic responsibilities Anchored in context Objects of study are data

How is traditional math different? Abstract, deductive reasoning Serves primarily professional purposes Employed in STEM professions Rises above context Objects of study are ideals

What is College Algebra’s purpose? Prepare students for Calculus Serve as one option to fulfill general education math requirement – Traditionally, the “keep options open” choice

Recommendations Develop Quantitative Reasoning Courses CTL Math panel: Consider inclusion of a quantitative reasoning course in the Core Transfer Library Math Departments: Develop or modify existing QR-like course to fit Core Transfer Library course description

Recommendations Modify Degree Requirements All Departments: Align math requirements to recommendation (along meta-major lines) All Stakeholders: Push for statewide uniformity in support of streamlined transfer

Meta-Major List with Recommended Gateway Math Couse

Recommendations Alter Advising Systems and Practices Administrators: Incorporate suggested math as default on degree maps Advisors: – Use meta-majors to steer students to best math in first year – Challenge conventional wisdom on “keeping doors open” with college algebra

Math Course Enrollment & Pass Rates All Institutions
