e-Assessment in Mathematics Courses with Multiple-choice Questions Tests
With the implementation of the Bologna Process several challenges have been posed to higher education institution, particularly in Portugal. One of the main implications is related to the change of the paradigm of a teacher centered education, to a paradigm that is student centered. This change implies the change of the way to assess courses in higher education institutions. Continuous and form...
متن کاملTowards better practices in medical student assessment.
Decades ago, when the science of medical education was just beginning to take a formal shape, one of its early doyens, the late Professor George E Miller (1919-98) observed emphatically that “assessment drives students learning” . Assessment not only determines what students will learn, but also determines their learning behaviour and the strategies they adopt. Thus, the undeniable influence ex...
متن کاملAssessment of Courses in Mathematics and Statistics for General Education Category 4: Mathematical/Logical Reasoning Methodology
The following courses in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics were assessed during the Fall Semester of 2001-2002: Math 110, 112, 113, 115, 121, 180, 201 and Stat 154. The assessment was conducted by Dr. Ernest Boyd and Mr. Robert Bohland reviewing the final examinations in these classes of all students whose last digit of their student identification numbers was seven, i.e., approximat...
متن کاملAugmenting Mathematics Courses by Problem-Based Learning
We describe a project that aims to motivate undergraduate engineering students to participate more in mathematics courses. Our approach shares characteristics of active, project-based and problem-based learning. We have developed interactive projects that deal with the mathematics behind real-world applications. In this paper, we describe one example project in detail, and discuss our guiding p...
متن کاملLakatos-style collaborative mathematics through dialectical, structured and abstract argumentation
The simulation of mathematical reasoning has been a driving force throughout the history of Artificial Intelligence research. However, despite significant successes in computer mathematics, computers are not widely used by mathematicians apart from their quotidian applications. An oft-cited reason for this is that current computational systems cannot do mathematics in the way that humans do. We...
