Members of the research team wrote field notes using an observation protocol focusing on the interactional patterns, tools, and teaching/learning practices in the workshop. (b) Focus groups – In spring 2017, the research team conducted two focus groups: one with pre-calculus TAs and one with representatives from the math department (faculty and pre-calculus program coordinator). The focus groups lasted one hour and involved
