@LoboWithACause Belin - I am so excited. I'm going to start working at WestEd Feb. 28! I already had ideas I wanted to talk to you about and now we'll be colleagues. I feel like I hit the jackpot!
Please listen to 2 new podcasts about the 7-yr results of our randomized controlled trial showing corequisite remediation with statistics increases graduation rates & wages: https://t.co/9itn9cBJXP Thanks to @CompleteCollege & @ProtasCCA for doing the podcasts! #highered#Math
Love this: "We mathematicians are constantly reminded that what we feel sure is correct is in fact false, and that is sometimes takes considerable effort to ... see where we went wrong and embark on a modified, or different approach."

@joan_zoellner How frustrating! All those sites that are always encouraging you to buy more stuff and then the one time something is necessary, they don't tell you.
Hey friends -- big news. Today is my last day at the Dana Center. It's been 10+ years of great work with many of you to prepare, engage and empower students in math! But time for something new.
I'm doing consulting for a while and looking for new opportunities.
#NativeAmericanHeritageMonth is a great time to visit the Indigenous Mathematicians site. Great to see the graph on the profile page showing growth in Indigenous holders of Math Ph.D.s. https://t.co/haoQsEoTx1
Invalid placement practices widespread in California community colleges, says new report from the California Acceleration Project. https://t.co/hXhFhqwsi4 @KatieHernCA@AccelerationCA
READ THIS! We knew corequisites help students succeed in courses. Now there is evidence they go on to earn more $ after graduation!! It's time to make #corequisites and #mathpathways the norm!
“College students are college students. They deserve to be treated as such from the moment they arrive on campus.”
NEW RELEASE: 7yr impact on #corequisite remediation with #statistics show students fare better than those in trad remediation.

Join us for a conversation about why the work to align #mathpathways from #k12 to #highered is so critical. Free webinar 10/21 - learn more and register. #launchyears https://t.co/iC5BRaAb0S
Know students interested in math AND winning $5,000? Share the @utdanacenter’s Math4 Video Contest with them! By interviewing a manufacturing professional about math skills, they could win one of four cash prizes. https://t.co/wyfCSzMQlU
Another excellent reminder that we need to question our assumptions about what helps students be successful.

I cannot say enough about how wonderful Mary Ellen is! So much passion coupled with a gentle and generous spirit. Someone buy that woman an Amy's hot fudge sundae with Mexican Vanilla ice cream! @literacy1st @utdanacenter
Congrats to 2021 Outstanding Commission Staff Awardee Dr. Mary Ellen Isaacs of @literacy1st at @utdanacenter! 🎖 Mary Ellen’s 25 years of service to the program has helped more than 25,000 Central Texas students learn to read & helped hundreds of @AmeriCorps members. #ASCAwards
"Students are happy when they can afford their rent, when they can afford groceries and when they are invited to the table." — Claire Sparklin, @washtenawcc#MiHealthyColleges21
YES! I am so sad that Colorado is going to pay students to get COVID tests. This could be a wonderful teachable moment about taking care of our communities. Instead we're making it a lesson in putting our own interests first.
Mathematics is all around us and impacts all aspects of our lives! Check out this article on the importance of making real-world connections in the study of mathematics: https://t.co/cwf4KBjhGh
