Exploring Students’ Questions From Online Video Lectures
Page: 440
This study was designed to investigate the types of questions college students generate as they watch video lectures in a business calculus class. Thirty-six students taking an undergraduate calculus course participated in the study. In this paper we share the preliminary results of our qualitative analysis. We have found nine mutually exclusive categories that uncover the thoughts, struggles, and successes our students go through as they experience this new teaching modality of video-viewing. We also include three questions for the audience to help further our analysis and open up new research opportunities for the improvement of collegiate teaching through the study of students’ questions.
