| Description |
Many students struggle in their mathematics course required for their bachelor's degree. There are many reasons that they may struggle, some include a lack of mathematics self-efficacy and thus they do not have the confidence to complete the course. Other reasons may be that they simply are not prepared to take the course because they are missing important mathematical concepts and skills. To solve this problem these struggling students are given the opportunity to take their required mathematics course for college in the secondary setting as a concurrent enrollment course. This course is then extended to a full year instead of a semester. The two semesters allow the students time to fully learn the material and gain the confidence needed to successfully pass the course. The course is partially taught through a flipped classroom, which helps the students better conceptualize the ideas and gain good mathematics self-efficacy. The curriculum for this course is presented in this project and the discussion states that the curriculum is well prepared. The students are also mentioned in the discussion and they were all successful in passing the course. |
