Implementation of pre and post class readings in calculus
Page: 1469
Active learning practices highly depend on students’ preparation for class in advance. However, reading Calculus can be a challenging task to students. We address this concern by assigning targeted pre-class readings and reading quizzes in two Calculus II classes. To study the effectiveness of these, we also provided them as post-class readings in two other classes. We report on our implementation and we discuss students’ feedback about the readings and quizzes.
