@Eliana_Goldin Amazing. Where was she exactly in Math Academy on March 13 where did she get to by June 10 when she retook the MAP test?
@mbateman @RahimNathwani My comments were written in good faith as well. I have devoted the last 46 years to teaching math and understanding how children learn math. I'm intrigued by Alpha's model and agree kids should be allowed to learn at their own pace -- but some of Alpha's claims baffle me.
@turing_hamster @RahimNathwani One way to check if Alpha will truly scale is to select some children who fall in the 20th to 80th %ile for working memory, fluid reasoning, etc and see if these kids grow at that rate and score over 1400 on the SAT. Document both the cognitive profile and the growth/scores.
@RahimNathwani @turing_hamster Exactly.
@mbateman @RahimNathwani If this is how it works, why does MAP expect Rahim's son to grow by 7 points from winter to spring? His scores are blazingly high for his grade. It would be clarifying to see the actual Alpha data with kids' names removed, including the data of those who do not re-enroll.
@p_kuperman I would say Bay Area schools cover about 1/3 of what Math Academy covers per grade, and a larger fraction of the Common Core. Most schools here ignore CC's fact fluency standard. US math goals seem loftier than Canada's but coverage is incomplete.
@p_kuperman Do you notice a difference between Canadian and American math grade-level content/difficulty?
@BarryGarelick @StephenVainker Why the apparent change of heart?
@p_kuperman To move from Gr 4 math to Gr 5, does your son need to complete Math Academy 4th grade or are there other routes to Gr 5 math? And could you say more about what Fast Math is? Is it only available within Alpha?
@DrLauraReames @_MathAcademy_ Fantastic progress! Where did he start on Math Academy in January and where is he now in the curriculum?
@rastokke Sorry for using the term tracking when I really meant ability grouping. I'd love to hear you explore with John Mighton how to keep a whole class in the 85% zone without letting some of the kids move along to algebra & geometry years earlier than others. (PS: I'm Canadian too.)
@mbateman I meant the regular math part. How are topics presented/paced and how complex is it? More like Khan, Beast, IXL, Math Academy, etc.? And is it mainly adaptive sequencing, or true AI that responds differently to different kids’ misunderstandings?
@HannahWardEdu Can you show some pages in the math notebooks of the Math Academy worked problems?
@sarah_cone Does she write (form numbers and letters) neatly with ease? If writing is cumbersome or labourious, it can help to isolate this skill from math and not try to push the two simultaneously at this stage. Can you post an example of her written math?
@ToddTruitt76508 @mathillustrated Something that does not quite make sense in this story: if you gave a Pre-calc exam to a typical 8-year-old and let them retake it a few times, they would NEVER get 100%. So how did high school kids who lacked elementary and middle school skills get A's in pre-calc by retesting?
