Math Skills Assessment
Hartel, R. W.; Adem, M.
Journal of Food Science Education, v3 n2 p26-32 Apr 2004
A math review exam, written and administered in conjunction with the Quantitative Assessment Program at the Univ. of Wisconsin-Madison, is used at the beginning of the 1st food engineering course to evaluate math skills needed for successful completion of the course. Students who do not score well on the math exam are targeted for individual remedial work to help bring their math skills up to a level that allows successful completion of the food engineering course.
