1. State name, occupation, course subject, level of students, and active learning methods utilized. How familiar are you with Peter Liljedahl’s research? 2. Describe what it was like using active learning methods in your classroom for the first time. a. What aspects of the methods were either effective or ineffective at achieving the learning outcomes for the lesson. b. How did the students respond to the methods? 3. What strategies have you used for developing classroom problems? a. [Ask this question only if the respondent notes they have used textbook problems] Do you have any recommendations or best practices in converting these types of

, also then serving as a factor in declining retention and/or graduation rates. Researchon what to use for correct placement has indicated that a combination of level of high schoolmathematics courses taken, overall high school GPA, ACT/SAT math score, and number ofmathematics courses taken during high school shows a stronger correlation between success inthe first university mathematics course than only using a mathematics placement exam [4]. Inresponse to needing some form of placement, studies suggest using multiple measures, mostwidely that of the high school GPA and prior mathematics background in conjunction withassessment scores [5]. This research reports that combined measures have resulted in a higherpercentage of correct mathematics
