Welcome to MaRS!Â
The Pathway to MaRS (Math Resilient Students) project kicked off its first year starting in fall 2023! The Clark Science Center, the Department of Education and Child Study, and the Jandon Center for Community Engagement are collaborating with NASA to build math resiliency for STEM students at Smith College. These students lead and conduct outreach to 5th-8th graders through engaging in peer-to-peer mentorship and working through fun math games! The Math Resilient Students project includes on-the-job training centered around mindfulness, community building, and playful math activities to foster a sense of being human in STEM and reduce math anxiety on the Smith College campus.
