National Mathematics Advisory Panel

The National Mathematics Advisory Panel was a group convened by the U.S. government to review and recommend effective strategies for teaching mathematics in schools. Their goal was to identify research-based approaches that improve students’ understanding of math concepts, from basic skills to problem-solving. They examined best practices and provided guidance to educators, policymakers, and curriculum developers to help ensure students develop strong mathematical abilities that prepare them for careers and everyday life. The panel's work aimed to enhance math education quality across the country through evidence-driven recommendations.
