Using Blogs to Enhance the Teaching and Learning of Mathematics Presentation uri icon

Description

  • As online education becomes more of a reality in higher education, mathematics educators are continually looking for ways to engage and assess student understanding. Many online instructors utilize the Discussion Board as a means to assess this understanding and as a way to monitor course involvement but often find discussions to be limited and lack substance. This session will explore how we replaced Discussion Board with Blogs (online journals) in math methods courses and the impact it had on student learning. Student samples and instructional strategies will be shared.
