This is an assignment designed for student in a first year experience class. This introduces them to what learning outcomes are for a class and how to interpret them both on an instructor and student level.
The authors of this book adapted homework problems to improve accessibility and promote diversity, equity, and inclusion in the introductory statistics course they teach at Fitchburg State University. The problems are showcased in this book, but we have also incorporated them into our existing problem sets on an open-source online homework platform called WeBWorK. The problems can be used as a companion to the OpenStax textbook "Introductory Statistics" by Barbara Illowsky and Susan Dean or any other textbook for a semester-long introductory statistics course. For a fuller experience for you and your students, we encourage you to contact us for help accessing the problem sets on WeBWorK. On that platform, students will engage more fully with the questions, and a slightly different version of the same problem will be generated for each student.
This was an assignment in a junior-level Differential Equations class at Fitchburg State University. It was also part of an Open Pedagogy group in which all participants produced materials for a class in an Open Pedagogy sense. The goal of the group was twofold: 1) to learn what open pedagogy is, both in the general sense as well as in one's particular academic field and 2) to develop an Open Pedagogy assignment in a current or future class.
