CACP Awarded Contract for University System of Georgia STEM Efforts

Date

The Center for Advanced Communications Policy has received a contract from the Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia (USG) for FY 2014. Led by Dr. Nathan W. Moon (PI), CACP will continue its external evaluation of the USG STEM Initiative, a program to improve student success in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) throughout Georgia’s colleges and universities. CACP also will conduct evaluation for a new initiative, the USG MATH 1113 Precalculus Emporium, which will provide a fully online, rigorous learning experience that is designed to improve student learning, retention, and success in this foundational course with the additional goal of greater affordability for the System. Dr. Moon serves on the Leadership Team for this effort, which is expected to launch in January 2014.
