4. For those students needing only  GED Math  Accuplacer Arithmetic

5. Prepared for GED Math Test Passed Accuplacer Arithmetic Math 50

6. Passed Accuplacer Arithmetic Qualified for Math 90 Math 50 Must make 50 or greater on Accuplacer to go to Math 100 Math 50

7. ◦ Blends collaborative and cooperative classroom instruction with ◦ Adaptive learning technology

8.  Provide four feedback loops:  Feedback to students  Feedback to instructors  Feedback to course designers  Feedback to learning science researchers

9. Results from a large study in Kent, WA ◦ showed gains across all students using Carnegie Learning Cognitive Tutor ◦ greatest gains from ELL and low-income students

10. Class organization  lab-based and  modularized Marks  pass/fail Successful Completion of Math 50  Ready to take GED Math Test  Met the Accuplacer Arithmetic requirement for college entrance  Qualified for Math 90

11.  Placed by the system’s placement test.  Assigned to a starting module.  Complete only the modules needed at their own speed.

12.  Teachers will work with individuals and small groups on targeted skills identified by the software.  Community and peer tutors will be available to help students in addition to the on demand computer tutorials.  Large group instruction will integrate challenging application content.

13.  Lab hours will be required and tracked by the course management system.  Assessment will be ongoing and mastery learning of procedures will be required.  A careful structured sequence of procedural math topics will allow students to progress at their own rate, taking as much time as they need to get it right.  Check-up tests and exit tests will be given at the end of each module.

15.  Collaborative Learning Activities: Think, Pair, Share ◦ Income Tax ◦ Factorial ◦ Singapore Math ◦ Dewey Decimal System
