@SUNY @CompleteCollege @Dr_Mullin @utdanacenter Treisman says that if you actually want to work with faculty, you can't focus on implementing a reform with fidelity. Instead, the key is to implement with *integrity*

[Philip Uri Treisman @uritr]

Content does not define rigor. See the Dana Center brief.

[Philip Uri Treisman @uritr]

New programs require that we work as a community and organize around student success. We also must ensure the integrity of mathematical content in our courses and pathways.

Join me later today for a panel: Rigor in the First Two Years: Implications for Math Departments #AMATYC2019 with Roxy Peck, Alycia Marshall, and David Bressoud.

[Philip Uri Treisman @uritr]

Join me for Math Pathways: Exploring the Present and Envisioning the Future @MathAMATYC 2019

[Philip Uri Treisman @uritr]

Happening today!

[UT Dana Center @utdanacenter]

Looking forward to this event on 10/29! Free and open to the public.

Paul Tough, in conversation with Uri Treisman and others from UT, discussing The Years That Matter Most.

[Philip Uri Treisman @uritr]

A positive experience in a math course might actually create a pathway. I'm working with students who would not have been in class before. It's hard to guess which students will do well in advance. We should be more skeptical about what students need to know to succeed.

[Philip Uri Treisman @uritr]

I’m teaching the corequisite for freshman Calculus at UT Austin, and it’s a revelation. The corequisite movement has changed the profile of students who are able to succeed in substantive courses with mathematical integrity.

Participating in @theNASEM Data Science roundtable. Understanding that local employers seek employees with
data savviness and that quantitative literacy and
data acumen are becoming increasingly important
at 4-year institutions.

A thought from career path panel @tpsemath Knowing the economic value of our math programs is very important.

[Philip Uri Treisman @uritr]

Engaging in important conversations about graduate education @tpsemath

Thank you for helping an old dog attempt to learn new tricks ARF ARF #mathpathways

[Philip Uri Treisman @uritr]

A truly important issue--https://t.co/6rBN03keeq influenced our work #MathPathways https://t.co/TbV2oOQYCT

[Mary (Phelps) Davis @mary_davis_utdc]

@uritr Is there anything out there regarding second language learners and #mathpathways ?

[Philip Uri Treisman @uritr]

Worth browsing state math task force reports #MathPathways https://t.co/YSlQN9LROH https://t.co/OAQYSOznWc

[UT Dana Center @utdanacenter]

.@uritr How can we learn more about what is going on in states? #MathPathways

[Philip Uri Treisman @uritr]

See https://t.co/HmA1khORV4 Lots of plans in the oven. & @CommunityCCRC book #MathPathways https://t.co/XuCIZx1rFC https://t.co/dRnDKBZ6m0

[Bill Moore @mooresmusings]

Any good examples around the country of specific connections between math pathways work and Guided Pathways initiatives? #MathPathways @urit

[Philip Uri Treisman @uritr]

Talking with children about their possible futures is a good start--and setting them exploring #MathPathways https://t.co/38rGB5Xucn

[UTDCDenise @UTDCDenise]

@uritr How would a parent advocate for their child to benefit from these #mathpathways? What questions are important for parents to ask?

[Philip Uri Treisman @uritr]

Metamajor (or broad program of study) is the way to go I think for many students #MathPathways https://t.co/NQNvihe4o6

[MCCA-MCSS @MCCACSS]

In placing students in gateway or gen ed math courses, should we tell them the pathway they should take based on their major? #MathPathways

[Philip Uri Treisman @uritr]

Bill, Ohio is a leader--see https://t.co/6G4MwbKDPN #MathPathways https://t.co/lyiES50hyy

[Bill Moore @mooresmusings]

What K14 initiatives are getting involved to help students overcome barriers to mathematics? #MathPathways @urit

[Philip Uri Treisman @uritr]

Started in earnest in discussions with my colleague Tony Bryk in 2008 # MathPathways https://t.co/3wQlDUmp5r
