Abstract

Applied mathematics
Adult enabling students have lower self-efficacy, negative attitudes and raised anxiety related to math learning than traditional cohorts. The presence of student mentors will be trialed in UPP002 classes, either on-campus or online synchronous, during Semester 1 and 2, 2023. A roundtable discussion: Do student mentors help to reduce math anxiety and improve learning outcomes for students transitioning to university? What other interventions could be helpful in the math classroom?
