Ninth Pacific Rim Conference in Mathematics

Description

I gave an oral presentation on the topic: Reflective Practice: a means to engagement mathematics students in the PRCM 2024-Mathematics Without Borders session.


Abstract
Reflective practice is a critical component of effective teaching for teachers to engage diverse student cohorts effectively. This study uses action research to carry out a critical self-reflection of a teacher in a first-year engineering mathematics unit at Charles Darwin University. The data is collected via videotape transcripts, critical incident reports, and student comments. After applying thematic analysis, the findings reveal that the teacher has to adopt a slower-paced teaching strategy, promote active student participation, and help students understand the relevance of mathematics in engineering.
