Noteworthy Practices

• Strengthening Math Skills at the Postsecondary Level: In October 2003, the Department of Education awarded a contract to the CNA Corporation and its partners to review the lessons learned from community colleges, the military, business, and organized labor whose common goal has been to strengthen the mathematics skills of their students, members, or employees. The project will identify and document a range of promising programs, approaches, and instructional practices that enable students to strengthen their math skills and progress to higher-level math courses and into work assignments requiring higher-level math abilities. For more information, contact Carolyn Lee.
