This guide is designed for faculty and staff at both two-year and four-year institutions that are implementing and scaling mathematics pathways based on DCMP principles. It offers a blueprint for implementation that spans four stages. The stages frame the work so that different stakeholder groups understand how to plan and prepare to implement mathematics pathways at their individual institutions and how to monitor implementation efforts for continuous improvement.

Topics:

The design standards outlined in this document set the guidelines for how the curricular materials for individual DCMP courses were designed to support a coherent, learning experience for students.

Topics: Curriculum

This bibliography summarizes selected research that informed each of the DCMP’s six curriculum design standards.

Topics: Curriculum

This resource, which describes the course content, its pedagogy, its defining characteristics, and how it supports the success of underprepared students, is intended for faculty members and staff who are interested in implementing the Dana Center Mathematics Pathways model, adopting the Frameworks course, or enhancing the rigor of their own student success courses.

This resource supports faculty members implementing a learning frameworks course at their institution, especially faculty implementing the Dana Center Mathematics Pathways model, as they modify or deepen activities to meet the needs of their students.

This resource is a comprehensive curricular guide to the "Frameworks for Mathematics & Collegiate Learning Course". The curricular materials were developed by the Dana Center Mathematics Pathways (DCMP) project through a collaboration between the Charles A Dana Center and the Texas Association of Community Colleges. The materials include background information on the structure and content of the course, including information about the research of which it is based and the development and pilot testing of the materials.

This bibliography summarizes selected research that informs the Frameworks for Mathematics and Collegiate Learning course which is built on four pillar (or themes): (1) building community and connecting to campus resources; (2) developing and maintaining motivation for success; (3) developing and using study strategies and skills; and (4) finding your direction in college (and beyond).

This professional learning webinar, hosted by Tom Connolly and Connie Richardson, examines the Foundations course with more in-depth knowledge of its course outcomes/objectives, structure of curricular materials, and sample lessons. (49:11)

This tool will help your team align math pathways to programs of study. Specifically, the inventory will help your leadership team do the following: * List all programs of study. * Identify math course requirements for each program at your institutions. * Compare math course requirements at primary transfer institutions. * Facilitate discussions with program leads and department chairs across campus. * Improve alignment of mathematics preparation with needs of the programs over time. * Provide clear and consistent information for advisors and faculty.
