Curricular Support Courses 207 - Making Hidden Connections: Exploring Quantitative Innovation with Peers

The purpose of this class is to provide training for students to work with their peers on quantitative reasoning/methods across the curriculum. This training could result in participation as a formal peer mentor or course teaching assistant, or this training may support a student's own quantitative exploration. Explore different factors that impact persistence when working within a quantitative setting. How can interactions with peers support learning and build resilience? This course will bring together students from different majors to practice peer mentoring across disciplinary boundaries. By leading classmates through instructional modules developed for introductory curricula, this practice will anchor individual and group reflection and feedback within a framework drawn from inclusive and effective pedagogy. Through this reflection, we may discover connections that can change how we engage with new opportunities and challenges.
