Error Patterns in Computation: Using Error Patterns to Help Each Student Learn
- Emphasizes assessment and the role of diagnosis within formative assessment.
- Provides guidance and resources for assessing and interviewing students.
- Incorporates students’ papers in which readers identify patterns of responses and compare their instructional recommendations with those of the author.
- Readers also practice identifying misconceptions and error patterns.
- Focuses on concepts and principles.
- Allows an instructor to teach computation in accordance with the NCTM Standards.
- Gives students an understanding of the meanings of operations and not just methods of computation.
- Enables students to know when particular operations are needed for solving a problem.
- Retains its emphasis on computational fluency.
- Stresses estimation and the best computing choice (mental computation, paper-and-pencil, calculator) in specific scenarios.
- Stresses estimation.
- Encourages readers to ask their students, “Is it reasonable?”
- Provides current strategies.
- Examines models and concrete materials, graphic organizers, self-assessment, portfolios, peer tutoring, and cooperative groups used when teaching computation.
- Incorporates reader recommendations that increase the text’s user-friendly and pragmatic appeal.
- NEW! Gives new emphasis to diagnosis as a part of formative assessment--Teachers can use varied approaches to diagnosis before instruction and also as they intervene during instruction.
- Open-ended assessment and problem writing are examples of procedures illustrated.
- NEW! Supplies more coverage of making connections among facts, procedures, and concepts–Will help teachers and students make connections by applying big ideas.
- Compensation principles, relations between operations, and “There are many names for a number” are examples.
- NEW! Furnishes a distinction between misconceptions and error patterns in computation–Encourages teachers to focus on concept development when appropriate rather than merely reviewing procedures.
- NEW! Offers an increased understanding of our system of numeration–Provides additional material that enables teachers to diagnose understanding of multi-digit numerals at a deeper level.
- NEW! Helps teachers and students to better understand the meanings of operations--additional material is provided to help teachers and students understand the operations of arithmetic so they will know when to use each operation when solving problems.
- NEW! Provides greater emphasis on representations--Teachers are instructed to represent concepts and procedures in a variety of ways.
- NEW! Includes a new section on using classroom discourse--Teachers listen carefully to classroom discourse and then ask questions that probe and guide thinking.
- NEW! Features a new focus on dispositions–Helps teachers to assess disposition.
- NEW! Incorporates a new section illustrating a thematic unit in mathematics--Enables teachers to plan varied instruction that involves connections with other mathematics and numerous applications.
