Peer Instruction and Lecture Tutorials Equally Improve Student Learning in Introductory Geology Classes
INTRODUCTION College introductory science classes are typically the last opportunity that most students ever have to learn science in a formal setting. For that reason, these classes provide unusual challenges to instructors, given the variety of potential class outcomes, the number of topics, the range of expectations that students have for the class, their prior conceptual knowledge, their at...
متن کاملReplicating and Understanding Successful Innovations: Implementing Tutorials in Introductory Physics
We report a detailed study of the implementation of Tutorials in Introductory Physics at a large-scale research institution. Based on two successive semesters of evaluation, we observe studentsimproved conceptual mastery (FMCE median normalized gain = 0.77, N=336), albeit with some student discontent. We replicate the results of original studies of Tutorial e¤ectiveness and document how and wh...
متن کاملActivating Students in Introductory Mathematics Tutorials
This paper describes a pedagogical pattern for mathematics tutorials with two different solutions depending on the underlying philosophy of learning or teaching. The aim of tutorials for introductory mathematics courses is for students to practice and apply what they have learned during the lecture. Adopting the traditional approach tutors show how to solve the given problems. Students observe ...
متن کاملAssessing The Effectiveness Of A Computer Simulation In Conjunction With Tutorials In Introductory Physics In Undergraduate Physics Recitations
We present two studies documenting the effectiveness of the use of a computer simulation with Tutorials in Introductory Physics in a transformed college physics course. An interactive computer simulation, entitled the Circuit Construction Kit (CCK), 3 was introduced to investigate its possible impact on students’ conceptual understanding. The first study compared students using either CCK or re...
متن کاملIntroductory Physics Based Visual Simulation
This paper provides a succinct review of physics based visual simulations methods. It is aimed at newcomers in visual simulation in an advanced IT simulation course, including flexible learning mode. It is also intended as an inspiration for research into physically truthful visual simulation. The emphasis is on how to approach presenting visualizations of the processes modeled, which are physi...
