Evaluation Procedure

Evaluation Procedure:
I had students fill out questionnaires, one at the beginning of the course and one at the end. The one at the beginning was a Mathematics Attitude Survey and the one at the end was designed to identify changes in those attitudes during the course. The responses of the students are on the web and I studied these looking for changes in attitudes toward mathematics and learning during the course. I included direct questions about their interest or lack of interest in teaching and about how their attitude towards mathematics and teaching may have been modified by the Chat Group topics and course.
