Implementation teams from six states gathered together in Fall 2018 to discuss progress and continuous improvement for mathematics pathways as a part of the Mathematics Pathways to Completion (MPC) project.
This 13–minute video, led by Susan Bickerstaff of CCRC, discusses five themes that emerged as a part of evaluating the MPC project.
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.

A fully scaled corequisite support model that uses common course textbooks and exams helps underprepared students complete their gateway mathematics courses in their first year, removing a persistent barrier to degree completion.
Combining several initiatives led to a rapid scaling up of co-requisite supports for underprepared students. The multipronged approach required faculty collaboration to align gateway mathematics courses and intense training of support staff and advisors.
A common concern among those considering mathematics pathways is the degree to which students who begin their college-level work in non-STEM pathways might be hindered if they switch to a STEM major.
Developing multiple ways to explain mathematics pathways to students and advisors, including nontraditional approaches such as a “Math Paths” game, led to a deeper understanding of how pathways fit with the overall college experience.
