The face of Mathematics across the globe is changing. And so is how our students learn, apply, and explore math concepts. Join Nancy Davies as she discusses the current state of Mathematics and how if affects the way girls learn. Ms. Davies’ talk has developed out of twenty years of research and pilot programs designed to increase girls’ access and love of math. Last year she was awarded a fellowship to the Klingenstein Center for Independent School Leadership’s 2010 Heads of Schools program at Teachers College, Columbia University, where she further concentrated on the influencing factor of math in girls’ education and identity.
