The Numeracy Infusion Course for Higher Education (NICHE) is a project of the City University of New York (CUNY) Quantitative Reasoning (QR) Alliance to foster the infusion of QR instruction and assessment into undergraduate courses in a broad range of disciplines. NICHE is a predominantly online course that teaches faculty how to (a) apply Quantitative Literacy/Quantitative Reasoning (QL/QR) within a disciplinary context, (b) articulate QR learning goals/objectives that reflect best practices for teaching quantitative literacy, (c) identify and implement best practices for teaching QR: active learning, collaborative student learning, writing with numerical information, etc., (d) adapt and implement strategies for incorporating quantitative reasoning into course instruction, and (e) assess the effectiveness of QR initiatives and use the assessment results to further improve instruction.

The materials presented on our NICHE web site (https://serc.carleton.edu//NICHE) serve as a complement to a series of interactive modules that are included in Blackboard that provide instruction to faculty for strategies for teaching QR to students.
