This article is aimed toward faculty in mathematics departments who are working to increase the number of high-achieving mathematics students from racial and ethnic minorities and for researchers investigating these endeavors. The Emerging Scholars Program (ESP) is one of the most widespread models for supporting such increases.

This is an excerpt from an excellent book by Daniel Coleman that describes the type of leaders we are searching for in education and business.

Since synchronous tools that can be used for education have become available, many people are turning to them as a way to help decrease the challenges associated with distance that occurs in online education.
