Probability is generally considered one of the most challenging areas to teach in mathematics education due to its intricate nature. However, the simulation-based teaching method can increase students' accessibility significantly to the probability problems because it enables students to resolve the problems with minimal mathematical skills. By…

Failure rates in first year calculus courses are high in most post-secondary institutions across North America and other parts of the world. This Inukshuk-funded open education project involved the development of five stand-alone pre-calculus learning modules. The design and revision phases of this project occurred between the fall of 2007 and…

The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of Logo Mathematics Tutorial Two (LMT2) for teaching polygons to minority students. The polygons were chosen to develop a sound foundation for further knowledge and exploration in geometry. The subjects (N=23) were middle and high school students that were trained using LMT2. The subjects…
