We work with students, faculty, departments and organizations to build mathematical spaces where people come together over their love of mathematics.
How can we support you along your transformational journey?
We provide organizational audits, professional development programs, and climate surveys help you create an environment where students, staff, faculty, and leaders can all become their best mathematical selves.
Organizational audits identify policies and practices that inhibit mathematical growth and to create actionable goals and transformational plans to
Quantitative and qualitative climate surveys inform leaders about the experiences of your organization's members.
Evidence-based professional development workshops and extended programs provide all members of your community with the tools to mentor, communicate, and teach inclusively.
Mentoring agreements create a mutual understanding among mentors and mentees, strengthening relationships by clarifying expectations, roles, and responsibilities. This template can get you started. Feel free to edit it along with other mentors and mentees to meet your needs.
At the 2023 SLMath workshop Critical Issues in Mathematics Education: Mentoring for Equity, a broad audience of people in postsecondary mathematical sciences discussed the evidence base for effective mentoring and culturally responsive mentoring. The workshop included a combination of research evidence, practical tools, and training, with a focus on addressing the individual mentoring needs of all members of our community, especially those who have been historically marginalized in mathematics education and careers.
