Dear readers,
The topic of my paper is about mathematics courses at DU. I will explore the student’s perception of mathematics classes. The paper will cover students from several different courses as well as teacher. I want to find out students’ thoughts about the viability of mathematics courses for their respective majors.
I’ll do an online questionnaire and several individual interviews. The questionnaire will contain a specific set of questions designed to generate a wide range of responses. I’m planning on completing a separate set of questions for math instructors as well.
In the conclusion, I’ll try to see what results I get from the responses and come up with analysis of the future of math courses at D.U in general and how to raise student’s interests in taking math classes.
I think what you want to do is very good, because perceptions around Mathematics are always interesting and are caused by a wide variety of factors. I think however you should really try to look for answers outside the Mathematics department. I am not sure we can do an online survey for this class but, you could probably generate some good qualitative questions to answer this.
ReplyDeleteI was wondering how you were going to support our project with outside textual research. Perhaps look through JSTOR to back it up.
