Melinda Lanius (PI), Valetin Kuechle (co-PI), and Ash Abebe (Co-PI) receive new NSF award of $400,000 for the project "Building a Calculus Active Learning Environment Equally Beneficial Across a Diverse Student Population." The project will start on 01/15/2024 and its expected completion is 12/31/2026. This project aims to replicate the Merit Recitation Program from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. In this type of calculus recitation, students have extended class time to work collaboratively in groups on more challenging problems.
