The Seven
College Collaboration for Integrating Inquiry-Based Learning, Mathematics
Modeling and Technology into the Mathematics Curriculum (SCCIMT) is a
two-year NSF funded project involving Oswego, Farmingdale, Oneonta, Brockport,
Adirondack Community College, St. John Fisher College, and Alfred University.
The seven schools which represent a subset of
the New York State Coalition (NYSC) of some 30 two- and four-year colleges, will
adapt and adopt materials and educational practices developed by the principal
investigators of the NSF Mathematics Across the Curriculum (MATC) projects
(mentioned
later in the narrative) as well as other publicly and privately supported
Mathematics, Science, and Technology (MST) projects.
Faculty and administrators at these institutions are committed to
institutional-wide reform and are endorsing the programmatic
changes outlined in this proposal.
