Project NExt Panel2005 Joint Math Meetings (Atlanta)2 Goals and Objectives To improve: understanding of mathematical concepts ability to apply mathematics educational experience

Project NExt Panel2005 Joint Math Meetings (Atlanta)3 Obstacles to Effective Learning Too much material Lack of depth Lack of choice Assessment pressures In fact:  Technology is not a guaranteed solution  Adding technology can increase problem

Project NExt Panel2005 Joint Math Meetings (Atlanta)4 Features of Effective Learning Interaction with material Solid knowledge base Engaging material Connecting activity and abstract concepts Keys to Success:  Creating interactive lessons  Generating and maintaining faculty interest

Project NExt Panel2005 Joint Math Meetings (Atlanta)5 Calculus at USC Weekly computer labs designed to:  Have students actively involved with the mathematics they are learning  Expose students to modern computing environment (Maple)  Develop communication skills via projects

Project NExt Panel2005 Joint Math Meetings (Atlanta)6 Maple Labs for Calculus Calculus I (Fall 2004) Calculus II (Spring 2005)
