The modules were designed to support fundamental concepts in entry-level college mathematics courses. The second and third goals of this study were to determine the learner characteristics and strategies that affect student performance on the nine Web-based learning modules. Data sources included: a demographic survey; nine Web-based instructional module quizzes; three in-class quizzes; three in-class, paper-based quiz surveys; an in-class final exam; an exit survey; and face-to-face interviews. Findings indicated that students who scored above 80% on the module quizzes also did better on in-class exams. Those who were self-motivated, focused, and self-disciplined had greater success in… Continue Reading →

Collectively, the modules pay attention to all 10 of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) standards which include five content standards (Number and Operations, Algebra, Geometry, Measurement, Data Analysis, and Probability), and five process standards (Problem Solving, Reasoning and Proof, Communication, Connections, and Representation). Activities include: (1) “The Carousel at Coolidge Park”; (2) “Utilizing Government Regulation Measurements to Demonstrate Algebraic Application”; (3) “A Local Paper Manufacturer’s Wood Yard”; (4) “Algebra Is Everywhere-Engel Stadium”; (5) “Bridges of Chattanooga”; (6) “Buckner-Rush Funeral Home-Dying to Do Math”; (7) “Challenger Center-Our Mission to Mars”; (8) “Chattanooga Ducks”; (9) “Chattanooga Riverwalk”; (10) “Coolidge Park”; (11) “Ducks Unlimited Conservation Benefit at… Continue Reading →

The researcher leads sixteen in-service teachers and seven pre-service teachers to enter two indigenous tribes- “Cado” and “Jayama,” and design culture-based math modules for indigenous students of tribal elementary schools. Through five stages of guidance, including “preparation and planning,” “exploration and understanding,” “reading and design,” “comment and revision,” and “practice and reflection,” the participants work together to develop seven sets of culture-based math modules in total. Based on observation, interview, and analysis of related documents, it is shown that the implementation through culture-based mathematics instructional modules could motivate students’ interest in learning math, and enhance their initiatives in… Continue Reading →
