State of Mathematics in PEI - Presentation

Event Date:
Friday, January 17, 2014, 1:30 pm
Location:
Don and Marion McDougall Hall
Room:
242
On Friday, January 17, Dr. Tess Miller will address the complexity of the state of mathematics in PEI. Her presentation includes interviews with a number of university faculty, teachers, and students which highlight key difficulties in learning and teaching mathematics. Dr. Miller contrasts this with what large-scale assessment tells us about the state of mathematics in PEI and its impact on PEI's economic development. The session will conclude with an open discussion on initiatives to improve the state of mathematics in our province. The presentation takes place from 1:30-3:00 pm in UPEI's McDougall Hall, Room 242. All are welcome.
