Thomas Carey: Transforming Learning Together

Thomas Carey has been a faculty member, innovation leader and senior executive in Canadian universities for 30 years. In the U.S., he has been a Visiting Senior Scholar at San Diego State University for six years, where he heads a program for collaborative course transformation teams in the California community colleges, funded by the Hewlett Foundation. Tom Carey visited Carnegie in February for a brown bag talk with staff. He presented on his work with the NSDL Developmental Mathematics Collection, a project where regional faculty teams are collecting exemplary practices, tools and resources intended to ‘raise the bar’ for local teaching practices and provide a network infrastructure to sustain a national collection.
