AMATYC’s academic network (ANet) for Quantitative Reasoning (QR) provides a forum for the analysis, discussion, and support of courses within the QR pathway. The ANet encourages sessions about QR at the annual conference and articles about QR in the MathAMATYC Educator and the AMATYC News. In addition, the Quantitative Reasoning ANet will:
- Provide support for faculty to develop QR courses
- Promote teaching and assessment practices consistent with AMATYC’s Crossroads, Beyond Crossroads, IMPACT, and position statements
- Identify, develop, and share relevant real-world contexts, instructional activities, and student projects for QR and other mathematics courses for a general audience
- Discuss issues related to the transferability, corequisites, student placement, student support, and delivery formats in such courses
- Help faculty overcome obstacles to implementing QR, including providing ways to assist faculty in educating student advisors, program coordinators, and administrators at the institutional level as well as other stakeholders beyond the institution
