Abstract | In order to improve the student success rate in a "gateway" undergraduate Biology course, changes were made to both content delivery and classroom support, and the impact of these changes was measured. Requiring students to interact with course material prior to class time by viewing pre-recorded lectures freed up time in class to delve more deeply into content in an active learning environment. Incorporating undergraduate Learning Assistants in the classroom provided students with a more comfortable environment for learning, resulting in improved course grades and a self-reported increase in confidence with the material. Additionally, a lasting mentoring relationship between students was established that has resulted in benefits beyond the introductory course. (As Provided). |
