Direct linkV. Akin; S. T. Santillan; L. Valentino – PRIMUS, 2024
Drawing on a social identity framework of mathematical development, the authors present a model, Improving Girls' Math Identity (IGMI), designed to address two key "leaks" in the female STEM pipeline: undergraduate and middle school. IGMI involves a supportive professional development network for undergraduate women preparing to…

Hancock, Emilie; Karakok, Gulden – PRIMUS, 2021
As students learn to problem solve in authentic situations, they must also develop metacognitive tools to manage and regulate their problem-solving process. To foster process-focused metacognition utilized by mathematical thinkers and problem solvers, inquiry-based learning classroom practices and an adapted version of portfolio problems were…

Crawford, Pam; Moseley, Daniel; Nancarrow, Mike; Ward, Erika – PRIMUS, 2018
One of the greatest challenges facing students new to calculus is the ability to persevere in the face of failure. Whether the student is choosing an integration technique or a series test, calculus is often the first course in mathematics where the path to the solution is not prescribed in an algorithmic way. At Jacksonville University we…

Goyer, Alysia; Lynch, Alison; Wand, Jeffrey – PRIMUS, 2021
With the goal of improving student success, the chancellor of the California State University (CSU) system issued an executive order that required all CSU campuses to eliminate remedial math courses as of Fall 2018 and place all first-year students into appropriate General Education (GE) mathematics/quantitative reasoning courses. The Mathematics…

Flores, Alfinio; Phelps, Christine M.; Jansen, Amanda – PRIMUS, 2017
We present a first-hand, longer-term account of one student's (Christine's) experiences in and after a mathematics inquiry course. In this course, students actively posed problems, conducted their own mathematical explorations, and wrote journal entries about their experiences. During the course, Christine found that inquiry helped her develop…

Melendez, Barbra S.; Williams, Tasha – PRIMUS, 2007
This paper describes a modification of a popular TV game show, "American Idol[R]," conducted in an undergraduate calculus course. The focal point of this game show is to get students to interact in competitive self-assessment. Student competition is an effective device to engage students in the learning process. Placing students in the role of…
