W. Ted Mahavier (’95 Ph.D.), Beaumont, co-wrote The Moore Method: A Pathway to Learner-Centered Instruction (Mathematical Association of America), published this summer. An associate professor of mathematics at Lamar University, he says many of his UNT graduate professors — including Paul Lewis (’65, ’66 M.A.), Dan Mauldin and advisor John Neuberger — also were proponents of the inquiry-based method of teaching. The book covers grading methods, development of materials and typical days in the classroom, and includes sample tests, notes and diaries for individual courses.
