Book Synopsis Supplemental Instruction by : Deanna C. Martin
Download or read book Supplemental Instruction written by Deanna C. Martin and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Supplemental Instruction (SI) offers educators a nonremedial, cost-effective approach to tackling student retention and performance problems at the first-year student level through graduate school. SI originated in 1973 in response to the question: How do we retain our students, including those who are underprepared, without lowering academic standards, inflating grades, or spAnding extra money? The answer emerged in a course-specific, collaborative learning model that identified high-risk courses instead of high-risk students. A decade later the U.S. Department of Education designated Supplemental Instruction as an Exemplary Educational Program and has since provided funds to disseminate SI nationally. The department certifies that SI participants earn higher course grades and graduate in greater numbers despite differences in entry level scores, prior performance, race or ethnicity. The collection of chapters in this volume represents a sampling of the exciting work that practitioners in the field are doing. This is the 60th issue of the quarterly journal New Directions for Teaching and Learning. For more information on the series, please see the Journals and Periodicals page.

Book Synopsis Why Do I Need to Know Math? by : Doug Sherman
Download or read book Why Do I Need to Know Math? written by Doug Sherman and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 109 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many students enter college unprepared for the study of mathematics and other subjects that require a strong math background. As a result, students have difficulty applying math concepts in non-math courses and frequently ask the question “Why do I need to know math?” Institutions of higher education must find ways to support these students in order to improve retention and graduation rates. In this study, an instructional intervention called Supplemental Instruction (SI) is used to help students to link the application of math concepts to their chosen discipline of study. SI is a tutoring approach that targets at-risk courses versus at-risk students; removing the remedial stigma experienced by many at-risk students. SI programs consist of voluntary tutoring sessions that occur weekly throughout an academic term and are facilitated by an SI Leader. This SI Leader is an expert in the topic area covered by the SI program and also attends all classes with the enrolled students. This study employed a qualitative research approach designed to capture an understanding of the lived experiences of engineering technology students who participate in a SI program focused on connecting important math concepts to complex engineering applications. This Interpretive Phenomenological Analysis study incorporated the use of individual interviews to collect rich data capturing the lived experiences of the participants. The qualitative data collected and analyzed sheds light on the experiences of students who have participated in this SI program.
Book Synopsis Research in Collegiate Mathematics Education II by : James J. Kaput
Download or read book Research in Collegiate Mathematics Education II written by James J. Kaput and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1996 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The field of research in collegiate mathematics education has grown rapidly over the past 25 years. Many people are convinced that improvement in mathematics education can only come with a greater understanding of what is involved when a student tries to learn mathematics and how pedagogy can be more directly related to the learning process. Today there is a substantial body of work and a growing group of researchers addressing both basic and applied issues of mathematics education at the collegiate level. This second volume in Research in Collegiate Mathematics Education begins with a paper that attends to methodology and closes with a list of questions. The lead-off paper describes a distinctive approach to research on key concepts in the undergraduate mathematics curriculum. This approach is distinguished from others in several ways, especially its integration of research and instruction. The papers in this volume exhibit a large diversity in methods and purposes, ranging from historical studies, to theoretical examinations of the role of gender in mathematics education, to practical evaluations of particular practices and circumstances. As in RCME I, this volume poses a list of questions to the reader related to undergraduate mathematics education. The eighteen questions were raised at the first Oberwolfach Conference in Undergraduate Mathematics Education, which was held in the Fall of 1995, and are related to both research and curriculum. This series is published in cooperation with the Mathematical Association of America.

This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether supplemental instruction and online homework can improve student performance and understanding in a first-semester calculus course at a large urban four-year college. The study examined the metacognitive and study skills and posttest scores of students. The study also focused on students' and instructor's perception and experiences of supplemental instruction and online homework using WebAssign. The study used a modified version of the Motivated Strategies for Learning Questionnaire (MSLQ) to reveal any significant differences in metacognitive and study strategies between students in a class with supplemental instruction/online homework and students in a traditional class. Students' scores on their final examination were analyzed to reveal the effect of mathematical achievement between the control and experimental groups. Surveys and interviews were utilized to provide anecdotal evidence as to the overall effectiveness of the online homework management system and supplemental instruction.

Download or read book The Impact of Supplemental Instruction on Student Success and Retention of Students at a University in North Carolina written by Pia Anderson and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study measured to what extent there is a statistical difference in cumulative GPA, course grade and retention rate between first and second year students who attended Criminal Justice and Philosophy Supplemental Instruction sessions, and students in Criminal Justice and Philosophy who did not attend Supplemental Instruction sessions. In this causal-comparative research study, the researcher analyzed a cause-and-effect relationship, including the independent variables of Supplemental Instruction attendance, and the course. The dependent variables were the students' cumulative GPAs, final course grades and retention. The researcher divided students into six different but not mutually exclusive groups as follows: students enrolled in Introduction to Criminal Justice who attended Supplemental Instruction, students enrolled in Introduction to Criminal Justice who did not attend Supplemental Instruction, students enrolled in Introduction to Philosophy who attended Supplemental Instruction, students enrolled in Introduction to Philosophy who did not attend Supplemental Instruction, students enrolled in either Criminal Justice or Philosophy who attended any Supplemental Instruction, and students enrolled in either Criminal Justice or Philosophy who did not attend any Supplemental Instruction at a university in southeastern North Carolina. The results of this study showed that students who participated in SI sessions had better outcomes than those students who did not participate in SI sessions with regards to cumulative GPA, course grade, and retention. With the exception of one hypothesis test, all of the remaining seven hypothesis tests rejected the null hypothesis of no difference between SI participation groups.
Book Synopsis DOES MANDATORY SUPPLEMENTAL INSTRUCTION WORK IN DEVELOPMENTAL MATH EDUCATION? A STUDY OF STUDENTS ENROLLED IN DEVELOPMENTAL MATH COURSES AT A SUBURBAN COMMUNITY COLLEGE IN THE NORTHEAST by : Kristina Corey Legge
Download or read book DOES MANDATORY SUPPLEMENTAL INSTRUCTION WORK IN DEVELOPMENTAL MATH EDUCATION? A STUDY OF STUDENTS ENROLLED IN DEVELOPMENTAL MATH COURSES AT A SUBURBAN COMMUNITY COLLEGE IN THE NORTHEAST written by Kristina Corey Legge and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The number of students entering the community college in need of developmental math has not changed, remaining at a steady 60% over the past seven years. This study compared the success rate of Mandatory Supplemental Instruction (MSI) sessions within four sections of a developmental math course compared with the success rates of students enrolled in both the Traditional Classroom setting and the Individualized format at Suburban Community College (SCC) during the Fall 2009 semester. These MSI format courses were compared with both the Individualized format of MAT 060 and the Traditional Classroom format of the same course. The students included in these sections were a combination of students who were: 1) suggested by advisors to enroll in this developmental math course after receiving a low score on the college's Accuplacer placement test for algebra or continuing the progression of developmental math from the lower level arithmetic class; 2) mandated to attend MSI after successful completion of the Jump Start Math Program, or 3) self-selected into the MSI group anticipating the need for additional help in the course. The two primary data sets available for this study are student math final grades and student participation/attendance records. Secondary sets of data include informal focus group notes, final exam scores, student attendance records for both class lectures and MSI sessions, and Supplemental Instruction Leader anecdotal records. The findings of this study conclude that success rates of students enrolled in the MSI sections of developmental math do not differ significantly from those enrolled in the Traditional Classroom format of developmental math; however, both groups did differ significantly from the Individualized format of developmental math, in that the students enrolled in the Individualized format succeeded at a lesser rate and withdrew at a greater rate than their MSI or Traditional Classroom counterparts. This study also concluded that female, full-time students succeeded at a greater rate across the board, which is consistent with the literature. These findings were significant for a number of reasons. Although the difference between the treatment group and the Traditional Classroom group was not significant, there are a variety of reasons at the program level as to why this may have been so and there are many future constructs that SCC can put in place to strengthen and reassess the MSI program. Although this study was focused on the MSI treatment, the data revealed a greater issue existing in the Individualized format of developmental math at SCC. Future considerations can be made in this particular delivery method to improve success rates of students involved in this program. Future research on MSI in the form of persistence and retention rates, graduation rates, transfer rates, subsequent math course grades and success in other college-level classes can be explored to provide the MSI program with more data to determine if particular groups of students are benefiting from this format.
