The United Negro College Fund Teaching + Learning Center is excited to invite Math teachers and professors to participate in a Gates Foundation-funded initiative aimed at improving student outcomes in college introductory-level math courses, with a particular focus on Calculus I.
The Gates Foundation is developing free, open-source digital courseware with the goal of mitigating high D/F/W/I rates among historically underrepresented students. This R&D initiative ensures that the perspectives of expert faculty help inform this tech-enabled product.
UNCF is conducting a series of virtual focus groups and interviews to assess what is working well on university campuses, unearth best pedagogical practices, and gauge interest in educational technology tools that leverage adaptive courseware and AI to promote student success.
Data collection activities will be conducted from Spring 2025, and faculty will receive a gift card for their participation
