Teaching gateway math courses at City Tech Finding the right mix of carrot and stick Ezra Halleck

Active learning techniques Webwork: discussed/reviewed at every session Flipped classrooms: videos and attached questions Exam corrections Openlab: posts Portfolios: collected and graded after each exam

problem: low participation Some possible ways to increase participation: more nuanced grading scheme: min(effort, quiz/exam grade +10) Buddy system: pair responsible student with irresponsible Make knowledge/understanding of syllabus part of exams (QL issue) Incorporation of games

Accounting nightmare 5 or 6 auxiliary tasks each session per student 150 supplementary assessments for each student over a semester 5000 extra assessments for one section

Proposed solution: Make students responsible for their own accounting Incorporate into the portfolio Your role becomes that of auditor
