MKN Crossing the Divide Online Resource Launched

Congratulations to Dr. Daniel Jarvis, professor in the Schulich School of Education, on launching  a new online resource, Crossing the Divide: Critical Transitions in Student Mathematical Development (Grade 8 To 9), designed as a support tool for teachers, students, and parents/guardians. This project is part of the Mathematics Knowledge Network (MKN), which represents a four-year, $1.4M grant from the Ministry of Education via the Knowledge Network for Applied Education Research.

The MKN is comprised of four distinct Communities of Practice: Mathematics Leadership, Indigenous Knowledge, Computational Thinking, and Critical Transitions. Dr. Jarvis is serving with the Critical Transitions team under the project leadership of Dr. Lynda Colgan of Queen’s University, and he is specifically focusing on the experiences of teachers, students, and parents/guardians as students transition from elementary to secondary school mathematics learning environments.
