The National Mathematics Summit 2016 was the 2nd summit designed to respond to national crises in developmental education, especially in mathematics. The professional communities (i.e. National Association for Developmental Education (NADE), American Mathematical Association of Two-Year College (AMATYC), Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching, National Center for Developmental Education (NCDE), Mathematical Association of America (MAA), and the Charles A. Dana Center) banded together to create a forum that allowed experts who have conducted scholarly research and institutionalized programs to provide training to math faculty and administrators in the promising strategies and assessment practices developed to improve math success at the post-secondary level. 
​
The participants were provided with a unique opportunity to dialogue, discuss, engage, learn and ask questions of national leaders in the field of mathematics and developmental education.  They were matched with their mentors by interest level in curriculum redesign and data collection using the following categories: modes of instruction, contextualized learning, acceleration models, learning support systems, study skills, writing measurable outcomes, data collection, and assessment. Those who attended left with a better understanding of empirically proven redesign models that can be used to educate administrators and state legislators on promising curriculum design and academic support that will help students improve their mathematics skills and ultimately persist to graduation.
