Direct linkWright, Sarah E. – PRIMUS, 2015
This paper describes the linear algebra class I taught during Spring 2014 semester at Adelphi University. I discuss the details of how I flipped the class and incorporated elements of inquiry-based learning as well as the reasoning behind specific decisions I made. I give feedback from the students on the success of the course and provide my own…

Khazanov, Leonid – Mathematics and Computer Education, 2011
A peer mentoring program has been implemented to support a group of at-risk students enrolled in two sections of an elementary algebra course at an urban community college. Peer mentors were recruited from advanced mathematics classes and trained to provide individualized tutoring and mentoring support to at-risk students. The results show that…

Farrell, M. A. – 1988
A program designed for students who enter the teacher education program with a strong academic background in mathematics is described. However, there is a significant gap between academic course completion and depth and breadth of understanding of mathematics. Teachers' practices reflect their view of mathematics. Therefore, students in the…

Lutzer, Carl V. – PRIMUS, 2005
Students sometimes have difficulty in mathematics because they solve problems mechanically, without understanding the ideas represented by their equations. This brief note provides mathematics instructors with ideas for rectifying this fundamental flaw in students' paradigm of problem solving. (Contains 1 footnote.)
