Overview:
Conceptual Math Media was founded by Mary Kay Beavers, a mathematics instructor at City College of San Francisco, who earned her Master's Degree in mathematics at the University of Illinois, and her Bachelor's Degree in mathematics from the University of Arkansas. Prior to teaching at City College, Mary Kay taught math at various levels in Texas, Illinois, Missouri and California. Her dedication to the under-prepared college student led her to write a basic math book for adults, Essential Mathematics, published by Addison Wesley Longman. With encouragement and support from her brother Charles, she was determined to make a contribution that would go beyond the college classroom and give parents a tool to help them teach their children important math concepts and skills. By designing Equate, Mary Kay not only brings math into families in a fun way, but also benefits learning in the classroom at various levels. How Did It All Start? The seed of Conceptual Math Media, Inc. was planted in Summer 1993. Her brother, Charles Beavers, had been pleading with her for 10 years to develop something that would help parents teach their children important math concepts that were not being taught in schools. Therefore, she began thinking about creating innovative math educational products that would benefit both parents and teachers products that would be useful for a wide range of ages and would actually change negative attitudes about mathematics... | |
