Two approaches to teaching Calculus III.
Contributed Paper Session, Meeting of the Texas Section of the MAA, Arlington, TX (April 2005).
Abstract
This talk will compare a modified Moore Method approach to Calculus III at SHSU with a traditional lecture-oriented approach.The courses which we will discuss were taught in consecutive years and presented similar information to the students.Students were evaluated in similar ways in both classes, offering a basis for comparison between the two experiences. The similarities and differences in student grades and attitudes between the two sections will be discussed.
