To compete in the 21st century global economy, knowledge of and proficiency in mathematics is critical. Today’s high school graduates need to have solid mathematics skills—whether they are headed for college or directly into the workforce. The National Mathematics Advisory Panel (National Math Panel) was created in April 2006 to help ensure our nation’s future competitiveness and economic viability.
Recently, the National Mathematics Advisory Panel released its final report on best practices for the teaching and learning of mathematics (please see the above article: Focus on algebra, U.S. panel tells schools). The final report contains 45 findings and recommendations on numerous topics including instructional practices, materials, professional development and assessments.
Apangea Learning is well-positioned vis-à-vis the recommendations of the National Mathematics Advisory Panel. SmartHelp is an excellent fit with the panel’s key recommendations. Additionally, it fully covers each of the benchmarks for the Critical Foundations of Algebra.
