Research Proposal / Assessment of Student Learning
Abstract
Active learning strategies strengthen teaching in higher education. Many strategies have been proposed in recent years and are being implemented primarily in teaching sciences. Even though a vast amount of educational research is accumulating constantly, rigorous statistical analysis of many of these strategies have a moderate presence in literature. The presentation will focus on a comprehensive statistical analysis in a comparative pilot study containing strategies modified from the Conceptual Change Model (CCM) and Team Based Learning (TBL). It compared the effectiveness of the strategies in teaching a junior level statistics course designed for students in mathematics or related majors.
