Mathematics Across the Curriculum

Resources for Participants

At the conference, participants will have access to the following resources:

Computer & Web Access
One of the advantages of the Sleeping Lady Conference Center is that Web access is available in every room.  Furthermore, we have the ability to network a lab of approximately 20 laptop computers to the internet.  At the institute, one large room will be set aside for work at all times with computers, color printers and Web access.

Experienced Faculty & MAC Coordinators
In attendance at the conference will be faculty from around the state who have already created and implemented MAC projects in their classrooms.  Also available will be MAC consultants, Dr. Dorothy Wallace and Ms. Kimberly Rheinlander of Dartmouth College, as well as resource faculty from Quantitative Literacy Across the Curriculum Project (see http://www.evergreen.edu/washcenter/MathatSleepingLady2004.htm for more information).

Concrete Examples of Successful MAC Projects
During the institute participants will be able to view posters describing MAC projects that have already been implemented.   

Assistance in creating web-publishable materials
During the institute, faculty will be able to receive individual help with language, presentation, and technical issues related to preparing curricula to be published on the web.  Dr. Dorothy Wallace and Ms. Kimberly Rheinlander of Dartmouth College, will be present during the conference to answer questions regarding publishing materials to The Electronic Bookshelf (see http://www.math.dartmouth.edu/~matc/eBookshelf/index.html).  Note: Stipends are available to those faculty from the MAC project who submit materials to The Electronic Bookshelf.
