Quantitative Reasoning (QR) at Bowdoin: Capacity and Needs Assessment <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Facilitated by: Eric Gaze (BCLT) <\/p>\n\n\n\n
This presentation will describe the QR Program at Bowdoin, from the Q-skills assessment of all incoming first-years to a survey of the entire curriculum for QR opportunities. Why is the score on a 30-question multiple choice QR exam the single best predictor of four-year cumulative GPA? How does QR differ from traditional mathematics? Where can students develop critical data analytics skills? Are students’ Q-skills improving over their four years? These questions and more will be explored!
