Using projects to enable Reflective Learning / MathGate Report

Traditionally assignments have been used to both enable and assess students’ learning by carrying out formative or summative assessment, typically carrying out tasks which would be impracticable in an examination context (case studies requiring the evaluation and analysis of results, often time and computer intensive). However they can also be used to enhance the students’ learning experience by enabling them to carry out Reflective Learning…a new improved reflective learning assessment model is presented…/… The LTSN Maths, Stats & OR Network has now created a Math-Net secondary home page which can be viewed at http://ltsn.mathstore.ac.uk/Math-Net/index.en.htm. This page was made using the Mathematical Society option on the Math-Net Page Maker tool at http://elib.zib.de/cgi-bin/mpm-test.pl. This tool is available for any institution that wishes to make their own Math-Net page and join the Math-Net mathematics network. Math-Net is supported by the International Mathematical Union’s Committee for Electronic Information and Communication - further details at http://www.ceic.math.ca...
