Spatial Temporal Mathematics at Scale: An Innovative and Fully Developed Paradigm to Boost Math Achievement among All Learners

The advancement of science and technology is vital to sustained economic success in the United States. The next generation of STEM professionals must be prepared to engage the world’s most pressing problems. Education, especially in the science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) disciplines, is vital to this endeavor. Yet the U.S. public education system is not adequately developing the intellectual readiness needed to sustain the nation’s economy (NAS, 2007). Students graduating from U.S. high schools are seriously under-prepared to enter STEM fields, which require academic proficiency in mathematics and science, as well as proficiency in problem solving and reasoning.
