Abstract

▶ We describe instructor support materials for an inquiry-oriented curriculum. ▶ We describe the process of designing web-based instructor support materials. ▶ We describe the role of research in designing web-based instructor support materials.

The purpose of this paper is to describe the process of designing web-based instructor support materials for an inquiry oriented abstract algebra curriculum. First we discuss the ways in which the research literature influenced the design of the instructor support materials. Then we discuss the design-based research methods used to develop the instructor support materials, elaborating the ways in which the research phases of our work contributed to the design of the instructor support materials. This discussion includes specific examples of important insights from our research and precisely how these were incorporated into the support materials.
