In this episode of Statehouse Spotlights, host Ashley Mullins sits down with Indiana Rep. Jake Teshka to discuss HB 1634, a legislative effort aimed at strengthening math proficiency and numeracy across Indiana. The bill introduces automatic enrollment for advanced middle school math courses, mandates statewide numeracy screenings for young learners and enhances teacher preparation programs to ensure evidence-based instructional strategies.
But what does all of that mean for students, teachers and policymakers in other states?
Listen to learn more about the motivations behind the bill, the challenges it aims to address and the expected impact on Indiana’s education system and workforce. Together, we’ll also highlight how stronger math outcomes can enhance the state’s economic competitiveness and ensure that Indiana students are equipped for high-demand careers in STEM and other critical fields.
Tune in to learn how these policy changes could transform math education for all Hoosier students.
