SLAM: Evidence that Class Participation Affects Student Outcomes
In this session, Perry Samson, Atmospheric, Oceanic and Space Sciences will discuss his analysis of data gathered in his Extreme Weather course through the LectureTools platform. Preliminary analyses have identified relationships between how students choose to participate in the course (streaming lectures remotely vs attending face-to-face) and their performance in the course. Additionally, Prof. Samson has explored the relationship between students' self-reported physical health, emotional health and course performance.
