S3 E1 - Getting Students Ready for College and Career Mathematics

We are back!! It so exciting to be going into SEASON 3! In this first episode of the new season, I welcome one of our "teachers on special assignment" (and technology teacher), Melissa Marcucci, to the podcast. We talk about her work in our district's college and career ready initiative and discuss our takeaways from a California State University Symposium we attended focused on preparing students for college level mathematics. Let me tell you...the important skills students should know going into college mathematics may not be the same as high school teachers have historically emphasized. This is a great episode for secondary teachers that are interested in hearing about what they can focus on in their math classes to get students ready for their future!
