Quantitative Literacy from a Service Division Perspective Gary Franchy

Davenport University Private, non-profit university in Grand Rapids, Michigan, that prepares students for in-demand careers in business, technology and health professions. Specializes in undergraduate and graduate programs that prepare individuals for careers in business, technology and health professions. Provides business education on location, at off-campus sites, and through online programs. Offers educational programs and services designed to serve recent high-school graduates, adults, organizations and international students.

Background History – Evolved from “Career Schools” New curriculum in 2003 (2 years of development) 2005 opened new main campus with residence halls Retain “Practical, real world” focus

General Education Service division – “Support the programs!” Several “Across the Curriculum” initiatives Common core of Gen-Ed classes that account for the vast majority of sections running Approach: Use to the context of the programs to motivate/support the content of our courses

How do partnerships arise? Culture Assessment Accreditation Frustration / Desperation

Examples – Accounting/Finance 2003 – Frustration / Desperation Students struggle with Rates/Ratios in Intro Accounting Course Students in Corporate Finance have “never seen” simple & compound interest formulas Disconnect in Language – Math Texts: Principal/Amount – Finance Texts: Present Value/Future Value

Examples - Nursing Assessment/Accreditation Eliminate 1 Cr Math for Health Care Providers “Dosage & Solution” Across the Curriculum Integrate into developmental math courses, College Mathematics course, and nursing courses. Unify approach to dosage & solution problems

Examples – Social Science 200? – Culture Began as “guest lectures” in our introductory social science courses (Diversity, Sociology, Psychology) In 2007, collaboration with a Stroop test in an Introduction to Psychology course

Implementation Develop handouts with/for faculty – Use “program” course texts for formulas and examples – Self-contained so faculty need not be a content expert in every field Recommendation to Instructors (RTI) – Discuss the “flavor” of the course – Discuss motivation for material/approach
