Abstract

Mathematics plays a crucial role in developing critical thinking and problem-solving skills, yet many students face difficulties in this subject. This research aims to examine the influence of memorization versus understanding w88 online casino in undergraduate math courses, with a specific focus on algebra and precalculus. By utilizing a mixed-methods design, combining surveys and academic performance data, the study seeks to explore the relationship between memorization and conceptual comprehension. Conducted at the University of Nevada, Reno (UNR), the research will involve administering surveys to precalculus students after each exam. Participation in the study will be voluntary, and incentives such as gift cards and raffle prizes will be provided to encourage participation. The findings will contribute to the development of effective teaching strategies and recommendations for enhancing learning approaches in mathematics courses. Adopting a mixed-methods approach, the study will collect survey data on study habits and utilize academic performance data to analyze success.
