Being invited to give this inaugural Dolciani Lecture is a special honor for me because I had the opportunity to sit in on some of Mary Dolciani's courses at Hunter College while I was a high school student, many years ago. I am frequently reminded of Professor Dolciani when I see her books as I do often in classrooms throughout the United States. Tonight I would like to describe the evolution of a project that I developed some 15 years ago at the University of California, Berkeley. Let me begin by stating the problem that we were addressing, namely, the rate of failure of Black and Hispanic students in calculus. Calculus was then, and remains today, a major barrier for minority students seeking to enter careers that depend in an essential way on mathematics.
