Abstract - There are two compelling constraints on the
delivery of effective engineering mathematics education
at university: Decline in the mathematical preparedness
i.
e.
confidence and ability of engineering students, and
the predominance of the passive learning-leaning
traditional lecture mode of instruction.
In this paper, we
present a formative teaching paradigm, consisting of the
use of specific question types and implemented via the
use of Response Technology systems, whose adoption
could help overcome these constraints.
To evaluate the
impact of this paradigm on student
