After most lectures, students are asked to try some sample
questions about the new material. Once they have
some practice, they receive graded online
quizzes. Often, students are asked to fill in
steps of proofs of the theorems taught in the course.
Each week, students report their exercise and quiz scores to their instructor, who keeps detailed student records and identifies special problem areas.
