Our innovative maths support approach stemmed from the ideas developed while working with Faculty of Science and Technology departments to benefit students. Many maths learning development activities that we provide are now embedded into the course delivery in Engineering, Maths & Stats, and Physics Departments, and Lancaster Environment Centre. We are expanding our service and have been working on implementing this proactive approach at the LU Management School.
We run these activities alongside more generic maths support, such as generic workshops, drop-ins and tutorials. The MLD team also run Maths Boot Camps once a term – a series of parallel workshops on algebra, calculus and statistics offered at basic and advanced levels. This year we are piloting a new scheme – “Academic mentoring for SpLD students” and working on a Peer-Assisted Study Sessions (PASS) scheme in the School of Computing and Communication and are keen to offer these schemes to more students.
