Lindsay B. Thompson – ProQuest LLC, 2022
High school mathematics achievement is crucial to the success of students as they advance through their education and prepare for careers, but most Georgia high school students are not high-achievers on state mandated mathematics assessments (GaDOE, 2019; Yu & Singh, 2018). The purpose of this qualitative study was to explore the life and…

Chiorescu, Marcela – International Review of Research in Open and Distributed Learning, 2017
It is estimated that the average student spends around 1200 USD on books and supplies every school year; thus, textbook affordability has become more and more of a challenge for students. Replacing traditionally expensive learning resources with open educational resources (OER) can have a great impact in the reduction of cost for post-secondary…

Pinzon, D.; Pinzon, K.; Stackpole, M. – PRIMUS, 2016
In this paper, we discuss active learning in College Algebra at Georgia Gwinnett College. This approach has been used in more than 20 sections of College Algebra taught by the authors in the past four semesters. Students work in small, structured groups on guided inquiry activities after watching 15-20 minutes of videos before class. We discuss a…
