Business Calculus Online Course Redesign for Student Engagement

The primary goal of the redesign is to support the University’s Strategic plan in improving student persistence and increasing graduation rates. Due to the high demand and low performance of the Business Calculus course, we will leverage the use of the online environment to engage students in an alternate environment to learn, even perhaps those who shy away from mathematics. Making the course fully online and not dependent on a physical class space, will give access to a greater number of students in order to improve graduation rates. A fully online model will give students more choices to complement a variety of learning styles.
