Imagine a world in which students routinely succeed and thrive in math pathways that propel them to achieve their postsecondary and career goals. We believe it is possible.
Date: Thursday, December 11, 2025
Time: 1–1:30 p.m. PT / 4–4:30 p.m. ET
The landscape of postsecondary math has changed dramatically over the past 15 years. Faculty and researchers have developed solutions for many of the barriers to student success, and we have learned to implement those solutions efficiently and effectively. Yet too many students are still stuck in poorly designed course pathways, struggling to learn uninspiring content. Too many faculty are not supported in improving instructional practice. And too many department chairs and deans lack the tools for leading transformational change.
In this webinar, we will discuss how to make mathematics an opportunity for postsecondary success and a foundation for careers that provide family-sustaining wages.
Who Should Attend?
- Mathematics faculty and department chairs
- Deans, vice-presidents, chief academic officers
- State and system representatives
Session Discussion Topics
- Mathematics content that engages
- Instructional practices that inspire
- Course structures that set the foundation for success
