Utilize Quantitative Approaches
Infusing quantitative skills is a strong pedagogical practice and also an important programmatic consideration. Students are much more likely to achieve mastery when quantitative approaches are infused across the curriculum such that they get many opportunities to practice discipline-relevant skills.
Quantitative Skills and Numeracy
- Contextualize math for geoscience students and majors
- Infuse quantitative materials throughout the curriculum
- Develop quantitative reasoning skills
- Employ quantitative writing
Computation
- Teaching computation using tools like MATLAB
- Use interdisciplinary computational guided inquiry modules like these from PENGUIN
- Infusing concepts and applications of parallel computing
