[PSTUM-list] Re: Member Profile (Joanne Nakonechny)

Hi: I am Joanne Nakonechny at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada. I work in the Science Centre for Learning and Teaching (Skylight) which is a research focused unit. Right now I'm involved in a research study that is trying to find out why peer facilitated workshops where no solutions are given are helping students pass. (Math180 is for students who do not have high school calculus). The math department does have a teaching course for Math TAs and if you go to the math department website: http://www.math.ubc.ca you can find out more about it. Good luck! Joanne
