Our schedule for the semester is flexible. My intent is for everyone to gain a good understanding of the benefits and limitations of MathBench (and other online modular instructional tools), share their insights about implementation, and contribute some of those insights towards a resource bank that can be used by future MathBench adopters. We will modify the schedule as necessary to achieve those objectives. Our meetings will be a mix of brief presentations, discussion of relevant (brief) papers, and group discussion/trouble shooting regarding implementation and assessment.
