Title: Designing Calculus Tasks to Foster Creative Mathematical Thinking

 

Abstract:

Fostering students’ mathematical creativity necessitates certain instructional actions such as designing and implementing tasks that foster creativity. We will share our task design framework incorporating research-based task features and aligning them with the Creativity in Progress Reflection (CPR) formative assessment instrument. We will also provide some examples of utilization of this framework through instructor-designed tasks and transformation of routine exercises.
