The California Acceleration Project A report on the 2011-2012 implementation of the California Acceleration Project (CAP) in sixteen colleges within the California Community College System. This report provides an evaluation of the work on the English and math pathways, a look into variation of institutional implementation, explores acceleration facets, such as placement and evidence that acceleration reduces the achievement gap for students of all backgrounds.

The Mathematical Association of America (MAA) A final galvanization of the common themes and collective thinking on curricular guidelines by thought leaders in the mathematical sciences community. This final report on a modern vision for undergraduate programs aims to capitalize on the opportunity to identify commonality and respond to influential reports from the National Research Council's (2013) and President's Council of Advisors on Science and Technology (2012) on the collective challenges to maintain a viable workforce in the US.

Policy Analysis for California Education Part 1 of a 3-part report series based on interviews and extensive reviews of literature and documentation from U.S. high schools and collegiate math curricula dating back to the mid-1990s. This 1st report examines the history, drivers, and evolution to differentiated pathways.

Policy Analysis for California Education The 2nd report of a 3-part series will analyze how the distinct missions of high schools, community colleges, and four-year universities create tensions for articulating math curricula across segments, and the resulting challenges for alternative math pathways as a route to college readiness.

Policy Analysis for California Education The 3rd report of a 3-part series analyzes more specifically how college and university policies for placing students in remedial math courses creates additional barriers for students in completing a degree and/or transferring to a four-year university.

President's Council of Advisors on Science and Technology

A report and letter from the President's Council of Advisors on Science and Technology (PCAST) detailing recommendations and urging improvements in STEM education to produce over 1 million more college graduates in STEM fields than expected under current assumptions. A similar report is also available from PCAST on K-12-level recommendations recommendations.

President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology

A report and letter from the President's Council of Advisors on Science and Technology (PCAST) detailing recommendations and urging improvements in K-12 STEM education. This report lists specific actions to ensure that the United States is a leader in STEM education in the coming decades. A similar report is also available from PCAST on community college and university recommendations.

The Mathematical Association of America This article walks the reader through a history and evolution of the mathematics major and, more generally, collegiate mathematics, in the United States.

National Research Council This 220-page paperback examines the current state of the mathematical sciences and explores the changes needed for the discipline to be in a strong position and able to maximize its contribution to the nation in 2025. It finds the vitality of mathematical scienes excellent and that they contribute in expanding ways to most areas of science and engineering, as well as to the nation as a whole, and recommends that training for future generations of mathematical scientists should be re-assessed in light of the increasingly cross-disciplinary nature of the disciple.

TPSE Math Transforming Post-Secondary Education in Mathematics, abbreviated as TPSE, meeting report from June 2014 explores recommendations for the post-secondary curricula in order to fit the needs of mathematics and other majors, the removal of barriers to and through mathematical sciences, how departments can improve teaching effectiveness while managing fiscal pressures. Also, the report explores how graduate students can gain vital skills among other topics.
