    Teaching Tip: Practice Integration On Problem Triplets: References

    Uploaded by

    Monal Bhoyar
    This document discusses teaching integration by presenting problems in sets of three that require different integration methods. It provides examples of problem triplets where the first problem requires one method, the second a different method, and the third yet another method. This forces students to think carefully about which integration technique to apply rather than relying on a single method. Presenting problems this way in a controlled environment gives students valuable practice choosing the right approach when multiple methods are possible.

    Learning multiple integration methods is frustrating. As long as only one method
    is involved, students can usually follow procedure and nd an answer. When
    problems requiring different methods are presented together (as on a test), then
    students can become deeply confused. Providing problems in sets of three re-
    quires that students think more deeply about the appropriate integration method
    and gives them practice confronting the challenge of choosing wisely. Here are
    some examples constructed so that though very similar, the problems require
    radically different methods of solution.

    Prior to giving out tens or even hundreds of integral problems, as some texts and
    teachers do, give students the opportunity to think outside the box of a single
    method in a carefully controlled environment.
