This two-day public event is organized by the The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine Board on Science Education in collaboration with the Board on Mathematical Sciences and Analytics, and will focus on how to best support students in post-secondary mathematics courses, with particular attention to students who are unsuccessful in developmental mathematics.

The workshop will convene a variety of stakeholders, including experts who have implemented new initiatives designed to improve the mathematics education experience for students. During sessions at the workshop, participants will:

  • explore promising approaches to bolster student outcomes in mathematics,
  • identify and discuss barriers and opportunities for effectively serving all students, and
  • establish key directions to address the prevailing research and data needs in the field.

A proceedings of the workshop will be published in late 2019.
