November 18, 2020In the fall of last year the System initiated a prototype process for a statistics pathway at institutions, which provided an avenue for offering MATH/STAT 1401 Elementary Statistics as an Area A2 math course without prerequisite. We are in the process of reviewing the progress of the Statistics Pathway prototype and are hosting a virtual Statistics Pathway Fall Summit on Wednesday, November 18, from 1:00 to 3:00 pm to reflect on the work and to chart a path forward.

In response to the COVID-19 outbreak, the 2020 Corequisite Academies originally scheduled for March and Early April will be supported as a virtual event. More details on this opportunity will be available soon.
The University System of Georgia is hosting Spring Corequisite Academies in two regional sites to facilitate broader faculty participation and reduce the distance teams will need to travel to participate. The Academies will differ slightly in their programming, but provide ample opportunities for interaction with peers and sharing of best practices, pedagogy, and successes. Participants are welcome to participate in either (or both) Academies, but total participation is capped at 75 for each, and you are encouraged to choose the location closest to you.
On January 28 and 29, the University System of Georgia hosted the Momentum Summit III at the Classic Center at the University of Georgia in Athens. The objective of the event is for institutional teams to reflect upon their experiences in implementing the Momentum principles in order to maintain and sustain successfully implemented strategies, determine areas in need of improvement, and identify strategies yet to be developed to ensure that the Momentum Year is a coherent experience for all students, and identify strategies consistent with the Momentum Approach framework that can support students as they move beyond their first year or which extend beyond their academic journey.
The 2019 Fall Corequisite Academy took take place on November 11 from 9 am to 3 pm at the Hatcher Professional Sciences Center on the Campus of Middle Georgia State University in Macon. The Academy provided an opportunity for institutional teams to continue to learn from one another on the pedagogies, structure, supports, and practices that support excellence in corequisite Learning Support. The Academy included general sessions in the morning and English and mathematics tracks in the afternoon to address subject-matter specific challenges.
This event was designed to support the work of faculty from Learning Support and gateway collegiate courses in mathematics and English, academic advisors and Learning Support staff.
