The digital revolution is recreating how individuals live and interact—with profound implications for the jobs of the future. To ensure economic prosperity for individuals and the nation, our education systems must prepare students for a very different and more complex world. Ensuring the quantitative skills of the next generation means equipping those who will create the AI models of the future while also meeting the demand for durable skills such as critical thinking, resilience, collaboration, and digital literacy. Yet many of today’s high school and college math classrooms still resemble those of the prior century. This panel of experts explored the question: How can math education, which is so central to preparing the growing STEM workforce, respond to this evolution to help build the diverse and flexible talent—as well as the quality jobs—that the future will demand?
