The blog is managed by Gay Clyburn at Carnegie and Julie Phelps (Valencia College) and will include updates on our Statway™ and Quantway™ initatives, links to publications and articles that inform the work, and insights into what Carnegie is learning.

The latest post, “A Brief History of the Quantitative Literacy Movement: Arithmetic and Algebra Skills Aren’t Enough Any More,” is by Amy Getz of the Charles A. Dana Center, a partner in this work, and Rikki Blair, AMATYC past president and AMATYC Foundation Chair Professor Emeritus, who is also working with Carnegie.
