Hello, all,
Our University will change its policy regarding drops,
withdrawals, and academic penalties beginning next Fall. With
this new policy, it would really help students if the could
make an informed decision in the first one or two weeks of a
course whether they would do well in it. So, I was wondering
if there exists a test that we can administer in the first
week of the first course of the algebra-based physics
sequence that would predict student success in the course. If
there is such a test, we'd like to try it out in the Spring
and summer. Any help would be most appreciated.
If you can send this information to me at the email address
below, I can gather and post a summary in early next semester.
Thanks.
