The program offers a unique opportunity for incoming University of Miami students to receive direct instruction and tutoring from UM faculty and graduate teaching assistants, specifically tailored to prepare them for their first-year math courses and the ALEKS placement exam.
The University of Miami Math Boot Camp is designed for admitted first-year students to strengthen their math skills and prepare for their initial university-level math courses. The program offers a hybrid format, combining virtual and in-person sessions. Participants engage with online instructional videos, synchronous online instruction led by University of Miami faculty, and receive individualized and group tutoring from UM Math Graduate Teaching Assistants. The virtual component requires a significant commitment to active learning over five weeks, focusing on reviewing and improving foundational math skills. The in-person session, held just before 'Cane Kickoff Orientation, provides focused group and individualized instruction, culminating in an opportunity to take the ALEKS Math Placement Assessment. The boot camp aims to help students place into higher-level math courses and build a strong academic foundation for their college career.
A typical day during the virtual session involves online instructional videos, synchronous online instruction by UM Faculty, and individualized or group tutoring. The in-person session includes focused group and individualized instruction led by UM Faculty and Teaching Assistants, with an opportunity to take the ALEKS test.
This program is best for admitted first-year undergraduate students who want to prepare for success in their first-year math course, review and improve their math skills, or aim to place into a higher-level math course by improving their ALEKS Math Placement Assessment score.
