Evaluation of Impact of Calculus Center on Student Achievement
Page: 816
Many universities are spending resources to establish math tutoring centers. Sharing information about the effectiveness of such centers is crucial to determine how to allocate resources. We illustrate methods of evaluating tutoring centers. We investigate the question, “what is the association between students’ attendance at the Colorado State University Calculus Center and their grade in Calculus II?” We found a statistically significant positive correlation between students’ tutoring center participation and their grades.
