Resources for Improving Students' Quantitative Skills

Presenter:  R. Deborah Overath, (Texas Southmost College)

Whether students just need a little review or "brush up" or need to deal with math anxiety, many resources are now available that can help students improve their quantitative skills. The presentation will start with a couple of short activities that can help students have a more positive mindset towards their quantitative skills and lead participants through some of the resources available on the web by having them perform parts of some of the available exercises. Participants will leave with a list of links to resources explored, as well as some activities they can use with their students. This session will focus on math/quantitative skills for the biosciences.
