Alternative and Authentic Assessment

Anthony, I love this! You really have used case studies in an interesting way that gives an "authentic" learning of math. So many students can't make the connection with math and the real world. This would be a perfect way to do it. Dr. Kelly Wilkinson

Establishing a Teaching Pattern

James, You are right. It is about consistency. Students should be able to have expectations about us as instructors just as we have of them. It may be an interesting exercise to have students to articulate their expectations of you, the instructor. Dr. Kelly Wilkinson
