This year’s Fund-A-Need focuses on transforming our math department into an Active Learning Center. We’ll replace the standard desks (in columns and rows) with movable furnishings, in which students can stand or sit. Imagine flexible furniture set up in small groups for collaboration and problem solving… that flips into individualized seating for testing. Each classroom can be set up for presentations, group work, or discussion depending on the instructors needs that day. Would you like to donate to our Fund-A-Need?
