Academic Support Services Math Resource Center
The Math Resource Center (MRC) provides one-on-one, drop-in assistance to students seeking guidance and help on their math-related work and assignments. Specially trained students staff the MRC; they have been recommended as assistants by faculty because of their success with math course work and their ability to work with others.
The primary purpose of the Math Resource Center is to help students with their understanding of math by conferencing with them and responding to their individual questions and concerns. Working collaboratively with the student, the MRC assistant provides input regarding assignments from math courses and math related areas such as nursing, education, science, and business and management. The assistant reviews and reinforces math processes with the student as she works through problems and assignments, thereby strengthening her understanding of underlying math concepts. In addition, students have access to software applications that allow for practice to support their math work.
