Teaching Methods | Flipped Classroom model will be used while teaching this course. Learners will gain first exposure to new course material outside of class, usually via reading or watching lecture videos/audios, and then class time will be used to assimilate that prior mathematical knowledge through problem-solving or classroom discourse. Learners will access key Abstract Algebra content individually or in small groups prior to class time, generate their questions, underline the points that they find most difficult or hardly understand, and then meet face-to-face in the larger group with similar misunderstandings to explore content through active learning and engagement strategies. Learners will take the responsibility of their own learning, and study core content either individually or in groups before class and then apply mathematical knowledge and skills to a range of activities using higher order thinking. Lecturing is still important but there will be a greater focus on gaining significant learning opportunities through facilitating active learning of mathematics, engaging students in the use of mathematical language, guiding learning, correcting misunderstandings and providing timely feedback, etc. In the Flipped Classroom setting, there will be a greater focus on concept exploration, meaning making, and demonstration or application of mathematical knowledge face-to-face. | ||||||||||||||||||
Homework and Projects | The course is of an abstract nature compared to most other courses; comprehension of the mathematical arguments and a careful reading of the lecture notes or the textbook are important. It should be noted that an important part of the homework assigned is reading the required textbook. This is a study habit that many students are not accustomed to, but is essential to thoroughly understanding the course. Students should attempt to solve all of the questions at the end of each chapter, and regularly keep in touch with the instructor about questions that they cannot solve. Homework will not be graded or corrected. Learners are strongly recommended to have the suggested textbook in order to fully understand the course and successfully solve the problems in the worksheets. | ||||||||||||||||||
