来看看我们吧.  The QR Center, Where You Count!

 

我们做什么

云顶集团 College’s Quantitative Reasoning (QR) Center in the Center for Data, Mathematical, and Computational Sciences supports students in mathematics, 科学, social 科学, and other courses with a QR or Data Analytics (DA) emphasis. QR Center提供 programming for student development of quantitative literacy and applications of mathematics and math-based skills to real-life situations. Currently, QR中心 provides drop-in tutoring to students in STEM-based courses who need help with math-based skills or content involved in their coursework.

                                                         

The QR Center seeks to engage students in their QR and DA development by supporting math and related aspects of their learning while at 云顶集团 College. 上图中， depicting QR as the intersection of discipline or real-life based content, critical thinking, and mathematics, was adapted from Susan Elrod, “Quantitative Reasoning: The Next "Across the Curriculum" Movement.” 同行评审， 2014夏季，卷. 16, No. 3. Similarly, QR Center programming will pull from all three contexts to support student QR development.

 

辅导准备

QR Center Q-Tutoring can be used to develop math problem-solving, learning, and mindset skills in order to learn more successfully in your math-related courses. 如果你发现 any core math-related material challenging in your courses, please seek out support 来自我们的临时导师. While Q-Tutors do not do homework or help with class-specific content, they will be able to help students better understand quantitative material 在这些课上. Student tutors may assist with basic quantitative skills, such as arithmetic, algebra, graphing, data management and visualization, and writing about 数字. Typical situations for QR Center Q-tutoring include:

• 一名学生 微积分 is having issues with integration techniques but realizes they actually need help with their knowledge of the trigonometric functions, specifically on how they relate to each other through identities such as the Pythagorean identities, and the double 或者半角恒等式. A student who is unsure of how to manipulate trigonometric functions, or of their definitions in relation to each other and the unit circle would have difficulty applying these techniques to integration and so would benefit greatly from building these skills through the QR center. This student should see a Q-tutor who is a math major or who has completed 微积分 at 云顶集团.

• 对于就读于 科学 classes, such as chemistry or biology, a QR Center peer tutor can assist with math-related 内容与技能. For example, if you need assistance with dimensional analysis or unit conversion, a tutor would be able to help review this information and work 通过你的问题. Similarly, if you want support working through material about growth, decline, or decay in a biology-based course, Q-tutors are a great fit!

• 你在吗? 经济学 or other class and struggling with manipulating and solving algebraic expressions (for example, when given two 方程s with two unknown variables, can you solve for 这两个变量?)? If you are given an 方程, can you solve for the inverse of that 方程? Do you struggle with graphing 方程s and solving for the slope, and the X和y的截距? If so, you would benefit greatly from building these skills through QR中心. You should see a Q-tutor who is an 经济学 major or someone who has a strong command of algebra and pre-微积分 at 云顶集团.

 

What should I bring to tutoring?

Please come prepared in order to maximize your time at tutoring. 请随意携带 any materials you’d like to discuss. While our tutors will not complete graded assignments with you, they will be sure to help you with similar material, in particular the mathematical concepts, so that you can be more successful on those assignments. 请把:

• 你的书
• 你的笔记本电脑
• 额外指定阅读
• 你的课堂笔记
• Practice problems, homework, and old or practice exams
• 你的问题

 

Does QR中心 offer private tutoring?

At this time, QR中心 offers drop-in and individual, appointment-based tutoring. If you feel that you need additional support, such as regularly scheduled Q-Tutoring appointments, please contact QR中心 经理, 艾米 史密斯, at 艾米.史密斯@dh865.com. Otherwise, QR中心 does not offer private tutors for hire.
