Time: 2:30pm-2:50pm	Room: J132
Panel: Mathematics Pathways
Abstract: This session will address: Pathways designed to accelerate students' progress from developmental mathematics to a college-level course as replacements for the traditional Pre-algebra/Beginning Algebra/Intermediate Algebra route. Courses that reflect the mathematics pathways described in the Michigan Transfer Agreement. Pathways leading to alternatives to College Algebra that are aligned to targeted programs of study. Panelists: Peter Carlson, Anna Cox, Bernard Cunningham, Jeff Morford, Jack Rotman Organizer: Frances Lichtman
Materials: Math Literacy Without a Math Prerequisite Mathematical Literacy For College Students New Math Pathways
