Mathematics Instruction Colloquium

IT'S ALIVE!!!! The First Large-Lecture Business Math Class
Cheryl Ekstrom
Department of Mathematics, The University of Arizona

Gould Simpson 849

The first large-lecture Business Math class is alive and has been let loose upon the university. We will compare the class with the original small-lecture format, and discuss the use of experimental methods that were used to bring this creation to life, including the use of Clickers, a strong dependence upon D2L, Readiness Quizzes, and Team Quizzes using the IF-AT (scratch-off) forms. We will discuss the outcomes of these methods in the current class thus far, as well as their applicability to other math classes that could potentially move to a larger format.

Refreshments will be served.
