Pre-Test/Post-Test Administration

test administration

Pre-test: Let students know that this test will help you determine what they already know. Explain that the module will help students learn how to solve problems on the test that seem difficult now.

Post-test: Explain that this test will help you determine what students have learned about equations and inequalities.

Online Testing

Once your testing window has started, you can begin testing.

• Seat students individually in front of a computer.

• Give each student a piece of scratch paper.

• Make sure that students have pencils.

• Have students use their access codes to log in to the pre-test.

• Before each student begins the test, confirm that he or she is taking the correct test.

Tell students that:

• Each question will be displayed on the computer screen. Students should select the answer they think is best by clicking on the option choice and then clicking to confirm the choice.

• After students answer a question, the next question will appear on the computer screen.

• Students may opt to skip a question and flag it to come back to before ending the test.

During the test:

• Observe students as they work to make sure that they are actively engaged in the testing process.

• Support any students who seem to find the material challenging. Encourage them to make a good estimate for any problem they find difficult.

• You may wish to provide manipulatives.

Once students have answered all the questions, they should follow the online prompts to conclude the test.

Pre-test: If any students finish the test early, group them into pairs. Give each of the students a Student Book. Tell them to read the instructions on page 1 and start working with their partners.

Pre-Test/Post-Test Administration

Paper-and-Pencil Test

• Print copies of the test and answer sheet from ARO for each student.

• Seat students individually.

• Distribute tests, answer sheets, and scratch paper.

• Make sure that students have #2 pencils.

• Instruct students to fill in the answers on their answer sheets.

During the test:

• Observe students as they work to make sure that they are actively engaged in the testing process.

• Support any students who seem to find the material challenging. Encourage them to make a good estimate for any problem they find difficult.

• You may wish to provide manipulatives.

After students finish, collect their tests, answer sheets, and scratch paper. You will need to upload students’ answers to the ARO system so you can analyze the results.

Pre-test: If any students finish the test early, group them into pairs. Give each of the students a Student Book. Tell them to read the instructions on page 1 and start working with their partners.

analyzing results

Irrespective of the method (online or paper-and-pencil) that you chose to administer the test, your students must be enrolled in the ARO system in order for you to obtain computer-generated reports.

These reports:

• Offer rich, instructionally-relevant information to teachers and administrators at the individual student, class, grade, school, and district levels

• Include total test score performance information and item-level analysis for each student and for all students combined

• Are important references in helping you assess the misconceptions your students are struggling with and decide what concepts to focus on during the module

For results:

• Online Testing: ARO will automatically generate performance reports.

• Paper-and-Pencil Test: Upload students’ data to ARO. Once you have uploaded the data, ARO will generate performance reports.

Additional information about the online test reporting can be found on ARO.

Remember to give a copy of the reports to students’ regular mathematics teachers to help them plan subsequent instruction.

Checkpoint Test Administration

preparation

• Make a copy of the appropriate checkpoint lesson, answer sheet, and answer key for each student.

• Hand out the checkpoint lesson to each student.

setting the direction

Lessons 5, 10, and 15 of this module are checkpoint lessons. In checkpoint lessons, students practice skills by answering multiple-choice and free-response questions in a test-like atmosphere, and then work in groups to “debug” their procedural knowledge. Each checkpoint lesson is structured as follows:

1. Students work independently on Checkpoint A.

2. Students work in groups to debug their work, concentrating on procedural knowledge.

3. Students work independently on either Checkpoint B or C, based on their success with Checkpoint A. Checkpoint C is easier than Checkpoint B.

4. Students meet in groups to debug their work.

The problems in the checkpoints follow up on the week’s work.

When students have completed Checkpoint A, collect their answer sheets before the debug group. Enter the data from Checkpoints 1A, 2A, and 3A into ARO. The report generated by ARO will help you assess whether students are on track and making sufficient progress.

checkpoint A

A. Work on Checkpoint A

Have students work individually to answer the multiple-choice and free-response problems found in Checkpoint A. Have students show their work in the checkpoint lesson and then transfer their answers to the answer sheet. Give students about 10–15 minutes to complete the checkpoint.

Observe students as they work in order to identify students who are struggling. You will use this information to decide how to organize the debug groups, and to determine which students will work on Checkpoint B versus Checkpoint C later in the lesson.

B. Model Debug Groups in Lesson 5

The debug groups are an important step of the checkpoint lesson because they give students additional opportunities to engage in the mathematical practice of constructing viable arguments and critiquing the reasoning of others (MP3). Many of the problems in the checkpoints ask students to reason abstractly and quantitatively (MP2) and to attend to precision (MP6). The debug discussions give students a chance to refine their understanding of the content while engaging in these mathematical practices.

Checkpoint Test Administration

In Lesson 5 during Checkpoint 1A, you will deviate slightly from the typical checkpoint lesson structure by first modeling the debug group routine. Spend about 5 minutes modeling this routine in front of the class.

Create a model group to help you. Choose students who have been willing to share their mistakes during the first four lessons. Participate as a member of the group in order to model how students should debug their work.

Model the following debug group routine, which students will use in all checkpoint lessons:

• Hand out the answer key for Checkpoint 1A.

• First, group members check their answers against the answer key. Students can check their own work or they can exchange work with a partner and check each other’s work. You can determine the rules for the process, or you can decide as a group.

• Next, members of the group should each choose a problem that they got wrong, show their work for the problem, and ask the group, “What am I doing wrong?” As resources, group members can use their own work, information they have from earlier lessons, the procedural help in the back of the Student Book, and the Concept Book.

• As a member of the group, model for students. Tell them you answered A for problem 1. What did you do wrong? Students might say that you confused division with multiplication. Listen to their advice. Ask them where you might get more help. Hopefully some students might suggest pages 87–92 of the procedural help, which shows you how to write and solve equations.

• Any students who got all of the problems right can share something interesting or helpful about their solutions.

You might not want to take the time to have all the students in the model group present their work. However, emphasize to students that in their own groups, all students should present their work. Be sure to spend the time required for your students to understand the purpose and routines of the debug process.

In subsequent checkpoint lessons, you may skip Part B—Model Debug Groups in Lesson 5.

C. Debug Groups

Divide students into groups of three or four students each and have the groups follow the debug routine. Try to balance the groups with regard to strong and weak students, based on your earlier observations. In Lesson 5, integrate students from your model group into the other groups.

EQUATIONS AND INEQUALITIES Copyright © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. or its affiliate(s). All rights reserved. 6

Checkpoint Test Administration

Make sure all students have a copy of the answer key for the appropriate checkpoint.

Some groups may need more help than others. Spend extra time with groups that need more help, but be sure to take time to monitor all of the groups.

checkpoints B and C

A. Work on Checkpoint B or C

Give the debug groups about 15 minutes to finish. Then assign students to work on either Checkpoint B or Checkpoint C. Checkpoint C is easier than Checkpoint B, so assign Checkpoint C to any students who had difficulty with Checkpoint A. Allow 7–10 minutes for the second checkpoint.

Observe students as they work to assess whether they still need help with the material—either individually or as a class.

B. Debug Groups

Hand out the answer key for the appropriate checkpoint.

If you have time, form debug groups again and have them follow the debug routine. If you run short of time, just have students check their answers using the answer keys.

Spend time with students who are struggling.

reflection

When you have about 2 minutes left, stop the debug groups, even if they are not finished. Have students respond to the reflection prompt in the Student Book.

Checkpoint 3 Answer Key

Checkpoint 3B

1. C x = 2

2. B 13

3. x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) = 63 3x + 6 = 63 x = 19 The 3 integers are: 19, 21, 23

4. 8($2.00) – (m + x) = the amount of money she will raise for the school

5. At the time June catches up to Peter, they both will have gone the same distance.Since Rate • Time = distance,

Peter’s rate (or speed) • Peter’s time = June’s rate • June’s time

Let P = Peter’s speed

Then P • 1 12 hour = (3 miles/hour)( 1

2 hour)

P = 1 mile/hour

Checkpoint 3C

1. B x = 1

2. D 19

3. x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 57 3x = 54 x = 18 The 3 numbers are 18, 19, 20.

4. $500 + ($30/hour)(n hours) + ($20/gallon)(x gallons) = total price

5. $27.89 – $3.56= $0.5842
