Take an in-depth look at how the Carnegie Math Pathways’ approach and course solutions can keep your students engaged and on a path toward college completion.

Co-led by Paul Verschueren, math faculty and Statway instructor at Seattle Central College, this webinar will walk you through Carnegie Math Pathways’:

• active instructional model, embedded social-emotional supports, and relevant curriculum;
• the professional support available to you when you teach the Pathways;
• and our full suite of corequisite, stretch, and college course solutions, which help thousands of students each year succeed at triple the rate of their peers in traditional developmental math, and in half the time.

Who Should Attend?

College and 8th-12th grade educators, administrators, and advisors who are new to Carnegie Math Pathways and interested in adopting an evidence-based approach to support high school and college math readiness.

Carnegie Math Pathways course solutions are supported by a unique platform that expertly incorporates collaborative learning, social-emotional support, and relevant curricula to keep your students engaged and on a path toward college completion.

Join us for a guided tour of our platform to see how each feature can benefit you and your students. We’ll also walk you through the training and ongoing professional support you’ll receive when you teach Pathways courses.

Stay on after the demo for our live Q&A with math faculty and Pathways course designer George Hurlburt of SUNY Corning Community College.

With many states legislating that incoming college students complete a college-level math course within their first year, how do we support students who test two to three levels below college-level? What if every student could dramatically improve their chances of completing a college-level math course in a single year, or even a single semester? Over seven years of classroom data show that they can.

Since 2011, and with the expansion to more than 90 colleges and universities across the country, we have developed, tested, and improved upon a holistic approach to quality math instruction. Join us for a discussion with Executive Director Karon Klipple, as well as faculty and administrators from our network, as we explore the approach, results, and what we’ve learned works best in math pathways design and implementation.

The Successes and Challenges of Corequisite Design: Continued Learnings from Carnegie Math Pathways Network Implementers

The results from Carnegie’s corequisite courses show students earning college credit at triple the rate and half the time as with traditional remediation. Learn more about the innovative and effective Carnegie Math Pathways corequisite offerings that are saving students time and money.

With institutions across the country moving to corequisite remediation and an increasing demand for quality corequisite math courses, the Carnegie Math Pathways has partnered with math faculty from 10 institutions across the country to develop, test and improve new corequisite versions of Quantway and Statway. Join us for this webinar discussion with course designers and implementers to explore the results and challenges for the CMP corequisite courses and what we continue to learn about what works with corequisite course implementation.

Applying Effective Math Instruction to the Fully-Online Space: An Overview of Carnegie Math Pathways’ New Fully-Online Courses

Digital learning is increasingly becoming critical to higher education institutions’ sustainability. However, failure and incompletion rates in online courses remain high especially for students traditionally placed into developmental mathematics.

That’s why the Carnegie Math Pathways is designing a new approach to online learning. In partnership with faculty across our network, as well as key technology partners, we have reimagined our in-person Quantway and Statway courses for the online space to bring a collaborative, adaptive, and supportive online learning experience for our students.

Join us for a conversation with course designers and implementers to learn more about the design elements of these new course models and the learnings from our initial pilot courses this fall.

Which Model is Right for Students? An Exploration of the Carnegie Math Pathways Offerings and What We’ve Learned From Their Implementation

Math pathways offer institutions a variety of implementation options, which can be used to support different areas of study and the diverse needs of students. Yet, with the proliferation of options, it may be more difficult to know what kinds of math pathways models work best and under what circumstances, to support student success.

Since 2010, the Carnegie Math Pathways has expanded beyond our traditional Quantway and Statway year-long pathway to also offer a suite of 1- and 2-term course options that include accelerated implementation and corequisite models. Applying design principles of active pedagogy, relevant curriculum, and social-emotional supports that have contributed to the success of our original course models to these new offerings, we’re continuing to see impressive success rates. And we’re also learning valuable lessons along the way.

Join us for an overview of each of the offerings available and what we’ve learned about what works from different implementations to help you consider which offerings may best serve your students.

Students should graduate from high school prepared for success in college and ready to meet their education and career goals. However, there is increasing recognition that the traditional high school mathematics course sequence is a barrier to opportunity for many students, particularly historically disadvantaged students, and that new ideas are needed to improve students’ mathematical readiness for post-secondary education. This webinar will present innovations being implemented in a variety of contexts that provide alternative pathways for students to successfully transition to and through college.

Phil Daro and Harold Asturias will discuss their new report from Just Equations, Branching Out: Designing High School Math Pathways for Equity, highlighting how alternative high school math pathways can provide students with mathematics opportunities that are better aligned with the diversity of careers that today’s graduates enter into and ensure more equitable outcomes. Max Altman from McREL/REL Pacific will share the work they have done with high school-college partnerships in the Pacific Islands developing and implementing high school transition courses that are adapted to local needs and community values. Finally, Elizabeth Texeira and Yovanny Vargas will present on how the Rhode Island Department of Education is spearheading efforts to bring high schools and institutions of higher education together across the state to improve college readiness with high school transition courses and related wrap-around services.

This webinar will be informative to K-12 and higher education participants alike. We encourage high school and college partners to attend the webinar together to seed conversations about implications for their students.
