Virtual Lab in Ordinary Differential Equations

CSUCI is one of the fastest growing institutions in the U.S. As the number of students grows in our classes, bottleneck challenges have arisen for several reasons. As the class size increases, the amount of grading done by the sole instructor greatly increases. Consequently, the amount of time left to the instructor to prepare materials is significantly reduced. The use of an Online Homework Management System as a Virtual Lab provides ample opportunity to transition from practice to mastery—an opportunity that otherwise would be missed simply because there is a limitation to how much grading an instructor can complete while also being responsible to deliver knowledge to a diverse group of students throughout a semester.
