Exploring differential engagement with mathematics support from an engineering student focus

نویسندگان

چکیده

Abstract This paper explores the differential engagement of engineering students with mathematics support at Coventry University. Mathematics is an additional help in that offered to all University, and such voluntary. Attendance records show that, whilst many do engage support, there are others who not, even though their results indicate they might benefit from so doing. Previous studies have either treated student cohort as a whole or explored effect single demographic factor age gender. investigates range factors on support.

Increasing Student Engagement in Software Engineering with Gamification

Gamification, or the use of game elements in non-game contexts, has become an increasingly popular approach to increasing end-user engagement in many contexts, including employee productivity, sales, recycling, and education. Our preliminary work has shown that gamification can be used to boost student engagement and learning in basic software testing. We seek to expand our gamified software en...

Student Engagement and Classroom Variables in Improving Mathematics Achievement

87 Since Coleman et al. (1966) began to explore school effects on student achievement in the United States, research on a relationship between education resources (e.g. money, curricula, and facilities) and education outcomes (e.g. student achievement, cognitive development) has taken large part of educational research in the twentieth century ((Burstein, 1980; Bryk & Raudenbush, 1992; Sammons,...

Developing Effective Mathematics Teaching: Assessing Content and Pedagogical Knowledge, Student-Centered Teaching, and Student Engagement

The Mathematics Teacher Transformation Institutes (MTTI) program attempts to develop math teacher leaders in part by providing content, inquiry and leadership courses aimed at making them more effective teachers. We assessed progress by observing teacher leaders’ teaching practices, and encouraging them to introduce or extend student‐ centered pedagogy in their classrooms. We found there was li...

Active learning increases student performance in science, engineering, and mathematics.

To test the hypothesis that lecturing maximizes learning and course performance, we metaanalyzed 225 studies that reported data on examination scores or failure rates when comparing student performance in undergraduate science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) courses under traditional lecturing versus active learning. The effect sizes indicate that on average, student performanc...

Creating Engaging Student to Student Engagement in an Online Class

Online classrooms present a challenge in offering student to student engagement. The traditional mean for this has been discussion threads, however levels of participation and quality of responses are frequent issues. Another issue, is the amount of time on the part of the instructor to review and grade discussion threads. This paper describes and simple and innovative way to use quizzes as pee...
