Mathematics pathways are a promising approach for improving student outcomes, but if implementation happens one college at a time and without statewide policy support, the potential for scaling is diminished. This report describes the structure of the MPC project and the supports that the Dana Center is offering to participating states. In addition, drawing on 33 semi-structured interviews with mathematics faculty, state-level leaders, and technical assistance providers across the six states, this report explores the question: What state-level structures, conditions, and processes facilitate statewide implementation of mathematics pathways?

The 2018 American Mathematical Association of Two-Year Colleges (AMATYC) standards guide lays out recommendations for impacting mathematical prowess, and improving mathematics education in the first two years of college. This guide builds on the content of, "Crossroads in Mathematics," and "Beyond Crossroads: Implementing Mathematics Standards in the First two years of College." As a part of this work, AMATYC outlines four pillars as key themes: • Proficiency: Developing Students' Mathematical Knowledge • Ownership: Taking Responsibility and Showing Initiative • Engagement: Developing Intellectual Curiosity and Motivation in Learning Mathematics • Student Success: Stimulating Student Achievement in Mathematics Finally, this guide serves as a resource for professional growth, and as a framework to make significant changes at the individual, departmental, and college level.
