Introduction: The proposed poster will describe the observational data collection methodology and preliminary findings from a large-scale efficacy study examining a corequisite mathematics intervention at the community college level. Specifically, the larger study is conducting a randomized controlled trial of the Carnegie Math Pathways (CMP)…

Recent research in problem solving has shifted its focus to actual classroom implementation and what is really going on during problem solving when it is used regularly in classroom. This book seeks to stay on top of that trend by approaching diverse aspects of current problem solving research, covering three broad themes. Firstly, it explores the…

A study was conducted at a large suburban community college in Northern Illinois to examine the nature of the relationship between student self-perception/attitude variables and final course grades in four levels of mathematics: elementary algebra, intermediate algebra, college algebra, and technical mathematics. Findings, based on data obtained…

This study was designed to determine the level of support among Saddleback College (California) students and faculty for maintaining the current exclusivity of the Mathematics Department in certifying student competence in mathematics as required for the associate degree. The study also identified current practices used by California community…
