If you teach or want to teach mathematics at a community college, consider what Ball State’s online master of arts (MA) in foundational mathematics teaching in the community college can do for your career and your classroom:
You can continue to teach while you pursue the degree because our program is offered 100 percent online.
You’ll learn to effectively teach general education mathematics courses that are not calculus-based at the community college level.
You’ll have the reward of helping students find first-year success in a subject that can often be the stumbling block that keeps them from earning their degrees.
As you guide your students to first-year success, they’ll have a better chance of finishing their degrees, graduating on time, and continuing studies toward a four-year degree.
You’ll be part of one of the few programs across the country that focuses on teaching math to adult learners.
