Supporting Our Dragons Every Step of the Way

The free program welcomed its highest enrollment of local middle school students and incorporated more activities, partners and field trips.

Researchers from Drexel University’s School of Education will join peers from Ursinus College and the 21st Century Partnership for STEM Education in an effort to strengthen artificial intelligence tools that will enhance math teaching and learning. This work is part of a Gates Foundation initiative to improve math education by better supporting students. Drawing on mentoring data and insight from math educators, the team aims to improve how AI tools respond to student work. The project will also explore how AI can assist teachers in providing focused feedback that equips students to build their conceptual understanding of math over time.

For the third year in a row, the University’s position in the publication's annual “Best National Universities” list has progressed. Drexel was also included in higher education expert Jeffrey Selingo’s “Dream School: Finding the College That’s Right for You.”
