Investigating Student Success in Team-Based Learning Calculus I and in Subsequent Courses
Page: 1426
With recommendations for active-learning strategies and challenging courses, we applied mixed methods to examine students’ success in Calculus I and subsequent courses following instruction using Team-Based Learning (TBL). Overall, TBL students performed better on midterm and final calculus exams, gave more explanations, and completed Calculus I at a higher rate than their peers. These results remained true when students’ incoming competencies for calculus were considered. TBL students performed comparably to their peers in Calculus II and Physics.
