12 N ATIONAL P ARTNERSHIP FOR A DVANCED C OMPUTATIONAL I NFRASTRUCTURE Biology Workbench Workshop July 29, 2000 SDSU/LL224G Evaluation and Assessment of Classroom Practice Student Surveys - Need a compatible tool for instructor to examine results with Sociology WorkBench (SWB) developed by team of undergraduate computer science majors employed by the EC/CSE

13 N ATIONAL P ARTNERSHIP FOR A DVANCED C OMPUTATIONAL I NFRASTRUCTURE Biology Workbench Workshop July 29, 2000 SDSU/LL224G SWB Convenient Tool to Learn from Student Survey Data Online tool for “standard public data sets” or your own data set http://edcenter.sdsu.eduhttp://edcenter.sdsu.edu Small Sample, therefore only useful as feedback for the instructor Can be used with “forms” interface directly into SWB format

14 N ATIONAL P ARTNERSHIP FOR A DVANCED C OMPUTATIONAL I NFRASTRUCTURE Biology Workbench Workshop July 29, 2000 SDSU/LL224G SWB as Analysis Tool View Student Comments (text)

15 N ATIONAL P ARTNERSHIP FOR A DVANCED C OMPUTATIONAL I NFRASTRUCTURE Biology Workbench Workshop July 29, 2000 SDSU/LL224G SWB as Analysis Tool Isolate on Specific Survey Response

16 N ATIONAL P ARTNERSHIP FOR A DVANCED C OMPUTATIONAL I NFRASTRUCTURE Biology Workbench Workshop July 29, 2000 SDSU/LL224G What do I want to Explain with SWB? Course had an initial, individual computational experiment and a group computational experiment later in the semester. More than half the students indicated they learned more in the later project. I wanted to explore the characteristics (If “A”) of those who recognized they learned more in a group.

17 N ATIONAL P ARTNERSHIP FOR A DVANCED C OMPUTATIONAL I NFRASTRUCTURE Biology Workbench Workshop July 29, 2000 SDSU/LL224G SWB as Analysis Tool Explain the Response on Learning with “enjoy groups” Don’t like it but learned more

18 N ATIONAL P ARTNERSHIP FOR A DVANCED C OMPUTATIONAL I NFRASTRUCTURE Biology Workbench Workshop July 29, 2000 SDSU/LL224G SWB as Analysis Tool Explain learning with “active participation” Not surprising

23 N ATIONAL P ARTNERSHIP FOR A DVANCED C OMPUTATIONAL I NFRASTRUCTURE Biology Workbench Workshop July 29, 2000 SDSU/LL224G What’s Next? For CSU Faculty, the Ed Center will sponsor a Computational Science Olympics competition encouraging and rewarding undergraduate projects which demonstrate “clever uses of computing” in computational science. Deadline March 2001 and we request faculty involvement and encourage of your students. For the national Computational Science community, SIAM’s CSE 2000 (Washington D.C.) and SC2000 (Dallas, TX) [Sept and Nov resp]
