Mathematical competency and effective quantitative reasoning skills are essential for safe nursing practice; however, research reveals a lack of consensus on the necessary quantitative learning outcomes for undergraduate nursing programs. The High-Quality Mathematics Education for Nurses Task Force—supported by the Charles A. Dana Center at The University of Texas at Austin, the Mathematical Association of America, and Quality and Safety Education for Nurses—was created in 2017 to build partnerships to work towards the goal that “all students in nursing programs will gain the mathematical and statistical knowledge, skills, and attitudes to promote and provide safe, high-quality health care.”

Topics:

This study focused on the challenges of at-scale corequisite mathematics course development and implementation based on the experiences of 21 system leaders, college administrators, and faculty across four states. Corequisite courses allow students who need or want additional support in college-level math to enroll in credit-bearing courses to receive extra, just-in-time help. Based on the identified challenges, this study also illuminated enabling conditions and provides recommendations for policymakers, state and college leaders, and campus faculty as they engage in corequisite development and implementation.

Topics:

This toolkit presents design principles for implementing corequisite mathematics and provides tools and resources to make them actionable. It supports faculty members, advisors and administrators in adopting corequisites that ensure college students – in particular those who are Black, Latinx, Indigenous, first-generation and from low-income communities – are provided the supports they need to be successful. Authored by the Dana Center with support from Strong Start to Finish and Education Commission of the States.
