The B.E.S.T. Transition Guide for Mathematics provides educators with an overview of major changes in mathematical concepts within the courses incorporating the Benchmarks for Excellent Student Thinking (B.E.S.T.).
Below you can find documents that provide information for the intentional progression of the standards by grade band (K-5, 6-8 and 9-12) and by strand. These are intended to provide mathematics educators with an overview of the standards progression of the B.E.S.T. Standards for Mathematics.
Our new Mathematics Graduate Guide (updated 8/16/2023) is meant to clarify our various policies pertaining to graduate study in Mathematics at NC State and gather the relevant information in one single document. I hope you will find the guide helpful. Note that it is an evolving document which will be adapted to reflect changes to the programs as they occur. Changes might be prompted internally within the Department or result from policy changes at the Graduate School, at the level of the State of North Carolina or at the federal level.
Advancing educational equity requires intentionally building a system that meets the needs of all learners. This guide was created on the foundation that every learner is entitled to high quality instruction and supports, including those who have not yet met grade level standards and those who would benefit from additional challenge. The practice guides focus on practices for universal instruction, as it is the first and most impactful way to ensure mastery of educational standards for every learner.
Prerequisites: Three and one-half years of high school math, including trigonometry and analytic geometry. Students with high school exam credits (such as AP credit) should consider choosing a course more advanced than 1A
Credit Restrictions: Students will receive no credit for MATH 1A after completing MATH N1A, MATH 16B, Math N16B or XMATH 1A. A deficient grade in MATH 1A may be removed by taking MATH N1A.
Credit Restrictions: Students will receive no credit for Math N1B after completing Math 1B, H1B, or Xmath 1B. A deficient grade in N1B may be removed by completing Mathematics 1B or H1B.
Prerequisites: Three and one-half years of high school math, including trigonometry and analytic geometry. Students who have not had calculus in high school are strongly advised to take the Student Learning Center's Math 98 adjunct course for Math 10A; contact the SLC for more information
Credit Restrictions: Students will receive no credit for Mathematics W53 after completing Mathematics 53 or N53. A deficient grade in Mathematics W53 may be removed by completing Mathematics 53 or N53.
Credit Restrictions: Students will receive no credit for Math 55 after completion of Math N55 or Computer Science 70. A deficient grade in Math 55 may be removed by completing Math N55.
Share an intellectual experience with faculty and students by watching the documentary film "Crip Camp" over the summer, attending filmmakers Nicole Newnham and Jim LeBrecht's live event on September 14, signing up for L&S 10: The On the Same Page Course, and participating in fall program activities.
When you print this page, you are actually printing everything within the tabs on the page you are on: this may include all the Related Courses and Faculty, in addition to the Requirements or Overview. If you just want to print information on specific tabs, you're better off downloading a PDF of the page, opening it, and then selecting the pages you really want to print.
We have designed a Mathematical Mindset Guide to help teachers create or strengthen a growth mindset culture. This guide contains five Mathematical Mindset Practices along with links to teaching videos. The videos all show Jo and Cathy teaching middle school students. There are different stages described in each practice to help capture the journey of a mathematical mindset classroom and the evidence teachers may collect along the way for their own reflection or for discussion with colleagues. The guide has been designed for teachers to use in the process of self-reflection, or for coaches or administrators to use to encourage a mindset teaching culture. In the interactive version of the guide on this web page, you can click on the arrow buttons in the Expanding descriptors to see a short extract of Jo/Cathy teaching in the ways described.
Our goal for the guide is to support a mathematical mindset journey of learning and growth. Teachers can work with the guide individually or in collaboration with others. The guide is intended to be non-judgmental, non-evaluative, and iterative in nature. When using the guide consider the classroom community as a whole rather than the teacher alone. It is also important to note that while the goal of the guide is to communicate all aspects of a mathematical mindset classroom, it is not always possible to find evidence of all practices in one lesson. We encourage teachers, coaches, and administrators to use this guide, and our reflection suggestions iteratively over multiple lessons.
You can download the guide here. We have also created a document that contains advice on how the use the guide and an example teacher journal. We would like to thank the Tulare County Office of Education for their help in developing the guide.
Invite a professional Singapore math teacher into your home classroom. This subscription of pre-recorded lessons covers all Textbook and Workbook material for an entire school year and can be done at your own pace.
The world around us is rich with mathematical wonder. The MAA has developed a field guide to highlight the mathematical aspects of a dozen sights at or near the National Mall in Washington, D.C. Start your mathematical treasure hunt among the monuments, museums, and fields at the heart of the nation's capital by downloading the field guide here (pdf).
Due to COVID19 some students may not be able to complete the Accuplacer. For students who have not completed Accuplacer or other placement options listed above, college level math may be appropriate if one of the following is met; please discuss your pathway and placement with your advisor using the attached reference guides:
If the student and advisor determine college level math is not appropriate then MAT087 is suggested for non-STEM students. MAT097 is suggested for STEM and Business students. Please reference attached guides to assist with placement.
