Creating and Teaching a Pathways Math Course (Canvas.net)

During this four week course, instructors will learn how to create and teach an exciting new type of developmental math course known as a pathways course. These courses (e.g., Math Literacy for College Students, Quantway™, and Statway™) are becoming a popular way to redesign college math programs.

During this four week course, instructors will learn how to create and teach an exciting new type of developmental math course known as a pathways course. These courses (e.g., Math Literacy for College Students, Quantway™, and Statway™) are becoming a popular way to redesign college math programs.
However, their innovative nature provides a set of challenges both in and out of the classroom. To help instructors overcome those challenges, this course will address the following topics concerning pathways courses:

• History and development
• Philosophy
• Real problem solving
• Role of skills and algebra
• Group work
• Assessments
• Implementation problems and strategies

Participants will be a part of an active and engaging class designed to address individual concerns and increase instructor confidence.
