Laura S. Kabiri; Catherine R. Barber; Thomas M. McCabe; Augusto X. Rodriguez – HAPS Educator, 2024
Multiple-choice questions (MCQs) are commonly used in undergraduate introductory science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) courses, and substantial evidence supports the use of student-created questions to promote learning. However, research on student-created MCQ exams as an assessment method is more limited, and no studies have…

Davies, Ben; Miller, David; Infante, Nicole – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2023
We report on a series of task-based interviews in which nine mathematicians were asked to evaluate a series of six mathematical arguments, purportedly produced either by fellow mathematicians or undergraduate students. In this paper, we attend to the role of context in mathematicians' responses, leading to four themes in expectations when…

Gyamfi, George; Hanna, Barbara; Khosravi, Hassan – Assessment & Evaluation in Higher Education, 2022
Engaging students in the creation of learning resources is an effective way of developing a repository of revision items. However, a selection process is needed to separate high- from low-quality resources as some of the materials created by students can be ineffective, inappropriate or incorrect. In this study, we share our experiences and…

Igoe, D. P.; Parisi, A. V.; Wagner, S. – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2017
Smartphones used as tools provide opportunities for the teaching of the concepts of accuracy and precision and the mathematical concept of arctan. The accuracy and precision of a trigonometric experiment using entirely mechanical tools is compared to one using electronic tools, such as a smartphone clinometer application and a laser pointer. This…
