Sarkar, Nina; Ford, Wendy; Manzo, Christina – Journal of Education for Business, 2020
A growing body of literature points to the need to rethink the traditional lecture-based teaching methodology. The flipped classroom is a pedagogical model in which students are exposed to new material outside of the classroom via lecture videos, assigned readings, or other online videos or resources while the traditional face-to-face classroom…

Roychowdhury, Hiranya S.; Gerrits, Ron; Hull, Kerry; Stowe, Skye; Jensen, Murray – HAPS Educator, 2020
In this pilot study, students in Anatomy and Physiology courses at a Southwest US Community College were assigned to groups with the instruction that they must meet outside of class time to work on course assignments throughout the semester. The assignments included exam preparation questions and case studies, but the groups could use their out of…

Hart, Jennifer – ProQuest LLC, 2018
There is a lack of empirical research on the motivational regulation and reactions of higher education students enrolled in blended courses. Studies that target this focus with nontraditional adult learners enrolled in the community college are even more difficult to locate. In this mixed-methods exploratory case study, I explored in what ways…

Jaafar, Reem – Journal of College Teaching & Learning, 2015
Students taking developmental mathematics courses resist attempting word problems when they are presented to them. Although word problems can help students contextualize learning, develop better understanding of the concepts and apply world knowledge, they constitute an impediment to students' progress in developmental mathematics courses. A…

Leong, Kwan Eu; Alexander, Nathan – Turkish Online Journal of Educational Technology - TOJET, 2013
The purpose of this study was to understand how students' attitudes were connected to their mathematics learning. This investigation was specific to web-based homework in developmental courses in the community college environment. The mixed-methods approach was used to analyze the relationship between students' attitudes and mathematical…

Leong, Kwan Eu; Alexander, Nathan – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science & Technology Education, 2014
The goal of this study was to understand how students' attitudes were connected to their mathematics learning and achievement. This investigation of students (n = 78) and their attitudes was specific to web-based homework in developmental mathematics courses in a two-year community college located in a large urban city in the United States. A…

Dawson, Caroline – ProQuest LLC, 2013
A recent trend in the traditional mathematics classroom is the use of online homework systems. Where traditional homework problems are retrieved from a textbook, online homework systems provide problems online and permit students to interact with the system in order to complete homework assignments. Mathematics instructors who use or who wish to…

Wolf, Alexander; Akkaraju, Shylaja – Journal of Effective Teaching, 2014
Despite the centrality of evolution to the study of biology, the pedagogical methods employed to teach the subject are often instructor-centered and rarely embedded in every topic throughout the curriculum. In addition, students' prior beliefs about evolution are often dismissed rather than incorporated into the classroom. In this article we…

Webb, Marie; Doman, Evelyn – CATESOL Journal, 2016
This research investigates whether the flipped classroom can lead students to increased gains on learning outcomes in 2 ESL/EFL contexts in Macau, China, and the US. A pretest posttest quasi-experimental mixed-methods design (N = 64) was used to determine any differences in student achievement that might be associated with the flipped approach…

Jaggars, Shanna Smith; Edgecombe, Nikki; Stacey, Georgia West – Community College Research Center, Columbia University, 2013
Student outcomes in online courses trail considerably behind those in face-to-face courses. In order to gain insight into why this might be, the Community College Research Center (CCRC) undertook a series of studies that examined 23 high-demand, entry-level online courses at two community colleges in one state. CCRC researchers observed the online…

Dass, Wendi E. – ProQuest LLC, 2012
This Capstone project studied a pilot of the web-based homework system "Hawkes" in developmental mathematics classes at a mid-sized community college. The purpose of the study was to investigate how three instructors of developmental mathematics courses incorporated "Hawkes" in their classes, what obstacles they encountered,…

Brewer, David Shane; Becker, Kurt – Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, 2010
This research compared the effectiveness, in terms of mathematical achievement, of online homework to textbook homework over an entire semester for 145 students enrolled in multiple sections of college algebra at a large community college. A quasi-experimental, posttest design was used to analyze the effect on mathematical achievement, as measured…

Korey, Jane; Rheinlander, Kim; Wallace, Dorothy – Journal of College Teaching & Learning, 2007
Dartmouth College mathematicians have developed a free online calculus course called "Open Calculus." Open Calculus is an exportable distance-learning/self-study environment for learning calculus including written text, nearly 4000 online homework problems and instructional videos. The paper recounts the evaluation of course elements since 2000 in…
