Issues:

  • student workloads
  • application of skills
  • development of higher order thinking skills
  • assessment

Despite some collaboration, over time, each course had developed increasingly into a ‘realm’ unto itself

Mathematical skill deficiencies

  • problem solving skills,
  • math terminology in English,
  • language structure and grammar of word

problems,

  • analysing skills to produce correct answers,
  • employing self-directed study skills, and
  • adopting different learning strategies to

address new mathematical ideas and concepts

Anecdotal feedback

  • Students felt more enjoyment for

learning mathematics

  • Students preferred instruction that

provided practical applications of ‘real world mathematics’

  • Faculty believe that the active learning

integrated environment provides students with a unique opportunity to learn in a much broader context
