COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: Expansion of "The Math You Need, When You Need It" through widespread implementation

这个CCLI第2阶段项目解决了以学生为中心的资源的需求，将定量技能引入地球科学入门课程，以提高学生，特别是普通教育学生的定量素养（QL）。该项目减少了教师面临的重大挑战，由于学生的各种数学准备和对数学的态度。它建立在CCLI第一阶段项目“当你需要它时，你需要的数学”的基础上。“智力优点：TMYN是自定进度的基于网络的学生模块，支持地球科学入门课程中定量主题的教学和学习。威斯康星州奥什科什大学（UWO）和海莱恩社区学院（HCC）的试点项目结合了几个行之有效的教学方法：以学生为中心的教学，在线模块化资源和即时教学。TMYN正在扩大：1）开发各种实施模式; 2）进一步促进地球科学定量技能的教学。TMYN模块的有效性正在探索培训教师在他们的多功能性，并与感兴趣的教师设计有效的和创新的实施模式。目前正在开发另外10个单元，以便将TMYN收集的数据增加到16个数量概念。目前正在制作一个大型数据集和网上资源，包括一个使用和执行TMYN的教程。扩大的TMYN方案正在建立与教学有关的资源，使该项目能够自我维持。更广泛的影响：该项目有助于提高本科生的QL。越来越多的学院和大学认识到QL是毕业生的重要成果。TMYN的模块化设计允许定制个别课程，并可以支持每年超过350，000名学生参加地球科学入门课程。该项目旨在支持地球科学教师，他们希望在课程中整合地球科学的定量方面，只需付出很少的额外努力，并尽量减少与准备不足的学生的疏远。在课堂上使用QL的经验和领导的地球科学教师正在参加研讨会，并使用网页，详细介绍了在许多不同的机构使用TMYN模块的结果。使用环境资源中心网络服务器确保了广泛传播。

This CCLI Phase 2 project addresses the need for student-centered resources that introduce quantitative skills into introductory geoscience courses to increase the quantitative literacy (QL) of students, particularly general education students. This project reduces the significant challenges faced by faculty due to students' varied mathematical preparation and attitudes towards mathematics. It builds upon a CCLI Phase 1 project, "The Math You Need, When You Need It." Intellectual Merit: TMYN are self-paced, web-based student modules that support teaching and learning of quantitative topics in introductory geoscience courses. Pilot projects at the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh (UWO) and Highline Community College (HCC) combined several proven pedagogies: student centered instruction, online modular resources and Just-in-Time Teaching. TMYN is being expanded: 1) to develop a variety of implementation models; and 2) to further facilitate the teaching and learning of quantitative skills in the geosciences. The effectiveness of the TMYN modules is being explored by training faculty in their versatility and working with interested faculty to design effective and innovative implementation models. Ten additional modules are being developed to bring the collection of TMYN collection to 16 quantitative concepts. A large dataset and web-based resources, including a tutorial in the use and implementation of TMYN, are being produced. The expanded TMYN program is building resources related to teaching that could make this project self-sustaining. Broader impacts: This project contributes to increasing QL for undergraduates. Increasingly, colleges and universities are recognizing QL as an important outcome for their graduates. The modular design of TMYN allows for tailoring to individual courses and can support increased QL for the more than 350,000 students that take introductory geoscience every year. The project is designed to support geoscience faculty that want to integrate quantitative aspects of geoscience in their courses with little additional effort and minimal alienation from under-prepared students. Geoscience faculty with experience and leadership in the use of QL in the classroom are participating in workshops and using web pages that detail the results of the use of TMYN modules at many different institutions. The use of the SERC web server ensures widespread dissemination.
