Fourth National Mathematics Summit
NOSS Pre-conference Virtual Event
June 14-15, 2021
$25 registration fee
The Fourth National Mathematics Summit (NMS) pre-conference is sponsored by NOSS, AMATYC, Carnegie Math Pathways/WestEd, Charles A. Dana Center, Mathematical Association of America, and Paul Nolting for a $25 registration fee.
Many of us deal daily with issues involving mathematics reform in the first two years of college. It is time again to bring together those in the “front lines” of mathematics education in the first two years to discuss the different approaches on how to implement, adjust, or redesign the virtual and campus-based mathematics courses. These adjustments mean that more training is required as well as more student support.
This NMS pre-conference is in response to faculty, chairs and administrators’ requests to provide additional training to improve all mathematics courses. Student success requires a team effort from faculty and students. To review all the workshop titles and descriptions go to 4th National Mathematics Summit Program.
The pre-conference session will begin on Monday, June 14, at 11 a.m., with a keynote speaker and sessions, and conclude on June 15 with round table discussions ending at 3:00 PM EDT. Sessions will showcase instructors who have successfully managed virtual instruction, co-requisites, active learning, non-cognitive academics skills support and other areas. The presenters are Connie Richardson and Paula Talley (Dana Center), Eboni G. Zamani-Gallaher (Carnegie Math Pathways/West Ed), Christina Cobb and M. A. Higgs (NOSS), Scott Adamson (AMATYC), Jennifer Quinn (Distinguished Teacher, MAA), Rochelle Beatty (AMATYC Central VP, 2018 - 2019), Paul Nolting (Learning Specialist), and Jenna Carpenter (Keynote, Dean of Engineering, Campbell University). This NOSS pre-conference also will offer attendees time to virtually meet with presenters during the Round Table Discussion topics on Active Learning, Assessing Student Success, Co-requisite Models, High Quality Mathematics Pathways, Mathematical Rigor, Non-Cognitive Academic Skills, and Supportive Learning Environments. Engage with your peers to improve mathematics learning and success.
The cost for the summit is $25.00.
Participants only need to register for the pre-conference. However we hope you register for the entire conference.
The sponsoring organizations invite you to attend this exciting pre-conference event. You may register for the summit at NOSS - Math Summit . NOSS conference registration is separate. Register now because there has been an extremely high demand to attend the previous National Mathematics Summits.
