Mathematics Across the
Community College Curriculum (MAC3)
The goal of Mathematics Across the
Community College Curriculum (MAC3) is to create a mathematically literate
society that ensures a workforce equipped to compete in a technologically
advanced global economy. This will be accomplished by training math and non-math
faculty across the disciplines to create, evaluate and modify projects that
incorporate mathematics. As a result, community college students throughout the
nation will be offered opportunities to deepen and reinforce the mathematics
they have learned in their math classes, apply it in context, and understand its greater
importance and application in their lives.This project
is
being led by The American Mathematical Association of Two-Year Colleges (AMATYC) in partnership with Edmonds Community College, Seattle Central Community
College, and Miami Dade College. Together we plan to implement a national
dissemination project that will make mathematical literacy a more welcome and
indispensable part of the two-year college curriculum in the United States.
