Assessment Tools
Wondering how you can measure student learning gains in your IBL courses? The SALG-M is a form of the Student Assessment of their Learning Gains (SALG) survey instrument that is customized for undergraduate mathematics courses. Sandra Laursen and Marja-Liisa Hassi, Ethnography and Evaluation Research, University of Colorado, Boulder, (Link) have used this survey to examine students' learning gains across a range of cognitive, affective, and social domains (e.g. Hassi & Laursen, 2009), and are making it available to instructors and researchers to use in IBL classes. Please download the Instructions, and go to www.salgsite.org.
