LETS GET STARTED - COMPLETE THE NEXT STEPS

Step 1 - 8 MYTHS SURVEY

Step 1 identifies the different misconceptions about math concepts that students may have learned in the past.

Step 2.            SMP -PRE-EVALUATION

Step 2 is a survey for the student to complete about their understanding of the standards of mathematical practices.  There is no right or wrong answers just personal statements about your prior experience in learning mathematics.  Click the link to the right.  This tasks takes 10 minutes.

Step 6. Take the Learning Style Inventory

To gain a better understanding of yourself as a learner, you need to evaluate the way you prefer to learn or process information. By doing so, you will be able to develop strategies which will enhance your learning potential. The following evaluation is a short, quick way of assessing your learning style.  No studies have validated this inventory.  Its main benefit is to get you to think about yourself, to consider learning alternatives; not to rigidly classify you.  Copy down your learning style on the orientation guide sheet and print out the summary of how to use your dominant learning style.

 A learning contract is a voluntary, student-completed document that outlines actions the learner promises to take in a course to achieve academic success. This contract provides academic structure and support, motivate struggling learners by having them pledge publicly to engage in specific, positive study and learning behaviors, and serve as a vehicle to bring teachers and students to agreement on what course goals are important and how to achieve them (Frank & Scharff, 2013; Greenwood & McCabe, 2008 ).
