Madison’s lecture, “Quantitative Literacy in America: What Kind to How Much and Beyond,” is part of The U’s strategy to incorporate quantitative literacy into courses across a broad array of disciplines – a recommendation of the USD Math Task Force. The full report of the Math Task Force and its charge is available at www.usd.edu/acadaffairs/math_task_force_report.pdf.

In addition to lecturing at The U, Madison is scheduled to host a workshop at the Delzell Education Center for faculty members looking to introduce elements of quantitative literacy into their courses. Faculty can register for the workshop, which is scheduled at 3 p.m. in room 110, by contacting the Center for Teaching and Learning at ctl@usd.edu. All USD faculty are encouraged to register and attend the workshop.
