A Team-Learning Approach to Intermediate Algebra at the Community College Level: A Pilot Study

Norton, James R.

Educational Research Quarterly, 3, 1, 19-26, Spr 78

A community college intermediate algebra course was taught using four-person student teams and self-pacing according to Bloom's mastery learning model. The instructor assisted teams and lectured when necessary. Positive attitudes and 90-100 percent mastery resulted. Most students would have probably completed the one-semester course in two semesters. (Author/GDC)
