Abstract

This paper discusses our new approach to assessing student learning. This approach includes the use of a final project rather than a cumulative exam. In particular, we measure learning by assessing students’ ability to connect mathematics to the real world via a final project. We suggest that students taking a deep dive into one particular math concept and being able to make connections between that concept and the real world are educational achievements during this pandemic. We also argue that there is value in online learning because students who learn online choose to use library resources and develop their own interests by attending office hours, all of which benefit their learning.
新冠肺炎疫情期间学生的数学学习
本文讨论了我们评估学生学习的新方法。这种方法包括使用期末项目而不是累积考试。特别是,我们通过评估学生通过期末项目将数学与现实世界联系起来的能力来衡量学习情况。我们建议学生深入研究一个特定的数学概念,并能够将该概念与现实世界联系起来,这是疫情期间的教育成就。我们还认为,在线学习是有价值的,因为在线学习的学生选择使用图书馆资源,并通过上班时间发展自己的兴趣,所有这些都有利于他们的学习。
