QLAB Home | LACOL has been awarded an IUSE grant from National Science Foundation for a project titled, “Online modules for quantitative skill building: Exploring adaption and adoption across a consortium”. This three-year project is researching the adaption and adoption of face-to-face and online pedagogies for teaching quantitative skills (QS) with the aim of improving understanding of best practices for the development of online modules to support students’ QS development.
Although the project started out focusing primarily on online modules, QLAB has broadened its focus to support inter-institutional learning and resource sharing among faculty and staff towards strengthening the ecosystem for supporting quantitative skills development. Campus dialog leaders from 10 LACOL institutions met in 2022 to take stock of and share information about summer bridge programs, quantitative skills assessments and placement exams, and ancillary support for quantitative skills development. The project proposal was developed by Melissa Eblen-Zayas and Janet Russell of Carleton College and Laura Muller and Jonathan Leamon of Williams College based on lessons learned from the QLAB pilot project.
