How Ivy Tech's Applied Predictive Analysis Project Leveraged Data to Help Stu...Amazon Web Services
This session will dive into how Ivy Tech, the nation’s largest singly-accredited community college, leveraged AWS to gather, analyze and take action on student behavior data to increase success for over 3,100 students. Ivy Tech’s methodology can be applied to any industry and has been hugely impactful to their business. We will follow the steps from inception to implementation across the state of Indiana and how to leverage AWS to bring new capabilities to bear on complex business problems.

EdReady Montana Program ACE PIR Day in Laurel, Montana September 2014Ryan Schrenk
EdReady Montana project presentation for ACE PIR Day in Laurel on September 22, 2014. The presentation will summarize the current EdReady Montana project and how it ties to MTDA programming, demonstrate how the program works, display use cases and show participants how to get started with the program at their school in Montana.
Numeracy skills are basic mathematical skills that include a range of abilities to understand and analyze numerical information and to make the right conclusions and decisions. They also include the ability to express ideas and situations using numerical or mathematical information.
This course is designed for students to acquire basic numeracy skills needed for solving real life problems. It involves the following: review of basic algebraic skills; rates (fractions, proportions and percentages); approximating numbers (rounding up of numbers and significant numbers); mathematical reasoning, (deductive and inductive reasoning); statements; truth tables; necessary and sufficient conditions; basic set theory; nature and uses of statistics; sources of data; data types and measurement scales; methods of data manipulation (aggregation and interpretation); basic probability with illustrations from various disciplines; establishing relationships between variables, and the use of basic computer packages such as Excel in analyzing data.

To whom it may concern.
I am very pleased to write a reference for Madalina Savoaia, in support of her application
for the job.
I have known her for two years, since she started her degree of BSc Actuarial Sciences at
UEA. Madalina has attended my seminars of Contingencies and Differential Equations
module in Autumn 2015-2016, being one the very good students and showing excellent
numerical skills. Academically Madalina is a hard-working and able student. She is
articulate, well-spoken, able to communicate clearly and seemed to get on well with her
peers.
This year she has worked as Feedback Research Officer in School of Mathematics from
January to June, after applying and being successful at the interview. In her job, Madalina
has contacted students from the various year groups in the School of Mathematics to
discuss which forms of feedback are more effective and has spoken with lecturers to gain
an understanding of the different ways feedback is delivered to students in Mathematics
modules. Together with a colleague, after analysing and reviewing data, she has produced
a 50-page report with recommendations for improvement of the feedback process. Her
work was excellent, showing excellent oral and written communication skills, and a very
advanced knowledge of Microsoft Word and Excel software.
She was an active member of the Romanian Student society at UEA, organising different
events in the past two years. She was Treasurer of the society, supervising the budget.
As a result of her excellent organisational skills and of the support between her peers, she
was elected President of this society this Spring.
Overall, I highly recommend Madalina Savoaia for a job at your company.

Course Director, School of Mathematics
