DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Deb Hughes Hallet (Harvard Kennedy School and Univers
 ity of Arizona)\n\nTitle: Fostering engagement through interdisciplinary p
 rojects\, collaborative teams\, and scaffolded autonomy: Making math for e
 veryone (and especially for engineers)\n\nAbstract: How do we approach stu
 dents who do not see mathematics as useful? Who are afraid of it? This tal
 k will describe how to we can engage them in quantitative thinking by “t
 eaching backward”. Using examples\, I will show how starting with storie
 s\, we can often get students to grab onto the mathematics. Then they may 
 surprise themselves by how far they get.\n\nFor more information on OLSUME
