Impact of Pre-Assessment and Post-Assessment in an Introductory Real Analysis Course

This study explores how pre- and post-assessments shape learning outcomes in an Introductory Real Analysis course. Pre-assessments act as learning roadmaps, highlighting prior knowledge and guiding student focus, while post-assessments measure growth and conceptual mastery. By analyzing student performance and feedback, we assess their impact on engagement, self-efficacy, and deeper mathematical understanding. The findings offer valuable insights for enhancing instructional strategies and fostering a more effective, student-centered learning experience in advanced mathematics.
