Freshman Math Coordinator

Providing the groundwork for common pacing and standards among the course sections: The Freshman Math Coordinator, in consultation with the mathematics faculty, will set the semester pacing guides for Mathematical Reasoning and College Algebra, providing a semester calendar for each course with and without remediation.

Additionally and in consultation with the mathematics faculty, the coordinator will maintain the common syllabus for each of these sections, updating as necessary. Collecting Data for mathematics interventions: The Freshman Math Coordinator, with the assistance of the faculty and the Dean of Caver College, will gather data related to student success at multiple points in the semester for the purpose of facilitating student academic interventions and providing students with adequate resources.

This data may include attendance, test grades, individual overall grades for students in each section, tests missed, procurement of appropriate access codes, or other data that is relevant to student success in these courses. Coordinating meetings of the faculty to discuss and further student success: The Freshman Math Coordinator will work with the faculty to hold meetings at multiple points in the semester to review the data collected and to discuss strategies and resources that may be necessary for student success.

These meetings will also focus on best practices for mathematics remediations. Implementing Strategies for Student Success in Mathematics: The Freshman Mathematics Coordinator will work with the Dean of Caver College, the Reddie Student Success Center, and other offices across campus to implement strategies for student success in mathematics, including planning academic interventions, providing tutoring, and coordinating mathematics study sessions.

Collaborating with Deans and Chairs to align courses with program requirements: The Freshman Mathematics Coordinator will work with the deans and chairs across campus to determine the best alignment of course content with program requirements to ensure that degree plans indicate mathematics courses that best serve each major.
