New Life math … at Parkland College (Illinois)

Change does not necessarily result in progress.  Change with a deliberate plan creates conditions for progress, and this idea is at the core of the New Life work in mathematics.  The math department at Parkland College has taken a professional approach to redesign and reform.

In their work, Parkland has designed a new path for non-STEM students, as have many other colleges.  However, they also examined their STEM-path to identify needs of those students which were not being currently met.

An overview of their work is in this document (which will also appear in the DMC newsletter … Developmental Mathematics Committee of AMATYC):Parkland College DMC article New Life 2012   [Thanks to Erin Wilding-Martin and Brian Mercer for sharing the info.]

Good job, Parkland College!!
