| Research Abstract |
We had presumed that major causes of students 'poor achievement in linear algebra were too high abstractness and distance of the lessons from real world applications. To compensate this situation and deepen the students' conceptual understanding, we redesigned our lesson-plan to be directed from concrete examples towards abstract mathematical ideas, from handling graphic objects and observing their characteristics towards building vector equations and manipulating them symbolically. The new lessons are changing our students learning style from black-box approach to more meaningful one.
