Mission: We advocate for sustainable and continuous improvement in PK-16 mathematics and science education in Ohio.

Vision: Every Ohio graduate will be sufficiently competent in mathematics and science to make critically analyzed, thoughtful, and informed decisions; be a responsible, contributing citizen, and have a productive and satisfying career in a changing, global economy.

  Activities: OMSC will help to accomplish the vision by:

    • Fostering information sharing and facilitating communication among all mathematics and science education stakeholders
    • Facilitating the definition of a continuous improvement plan for K-16 mathematics and science education and disseminating the plan
    • Supporting necessary changes in the K-12 curricula and supporting instructional materials
    • Supporting necessary changes in the manner in which student performance is assessed such that Ohio's citizens will know where its students, schools, and districts are relative to others in Ohio, the nation, and the world
    • Supporting legislative actions necessary to finance and accomplish the above.

����Keynote: Jackie KraemerThinking Differently About Math: Observations from Top Performing Systems GloballyDescription: Jackie Kraemer, Director of Policy Analysis at the National Center on Education and the Economy (NCEE), will share findings from a review of how math is taught differently in systems across the globe with strong performance in mathematics. The review looks at differences in both math content and instruction and how education systems are structured that impact how math is taught. This includes a focus on: math content, curriculum and instruction, personalization of learning, the use of instructional time and how teachers are supported. NCEE is a non-profit based in Washington, DC that has focused for more than 30 years on identifying insights from global benchmarking to inform national, state, and district policy and practice in the United States.
