Algebra I - Tests graded and handed back today. Students must now do a "Fix and Reflect".

By Monday....

1) FIX the incorrect problems.
2) FIND and identify what they did wrong. For example, "I multiplied 2 x 3 and got 5".
3) REFLECT upon the root cause. There are four root causes for math errors.
--- Concept - I really didn't understand what we were doing.
--- Mechanics - I didn't practice this type of problem enough in homework.
--- Precision - I made a "stupid" mistake because I didn't read the instructions carefully enough, or I dropped a minus sign or I added instead of multiplying, etc.
--- State Of Mind - I was running a fever the day we covered this in class or I was up until 2 AM the night before the test, or I had my mind on the big game, etc.

The idea is that the student will begin to see a pattern of root causes, which will help them correct in the future.
