Activate your Brain F our girls washed the neighbor's dog for 50 cents. They didn't know how to divide the money, so the dog owner said: "I will give the four of you.8 of the total amount. To the first one to tell me how much that is, I will give.5 of the other.2". If someone gave the dog owner the right answer, how did the money get divided up?

Why do learners make mistakes? Lapses in concentration. Hasty reasoning. Memory overload. Not noticing important features of a problem. or…through misconceptions based on: alternative ways of reasoning; local generalisations from early experience.
11
A pupil does not passively receive knowledge from the environment - it is not possible for knowledge to be transferred holistically and faithfully from one person to another. A pupil is an active participant in the construction of his/her own mathematical knowledge. The construction activity involves the reception of new ideas and the interaction of these with the pupils existing ideas.
12
New Concept: Multiplication using decimals. Existing idea: Multiplication makes numbers larger. Accommodation Misconception: Multiplying a whole number by a decimal will always result in a larger number.
13
Misconception: Multiplication makes numbers larger. Cognitive conflict: When confronted with multiplication of a whole number by a decimal less than one, the student thinks the product must be a larger number than either factor.
14
What do we do with mistakes and misconceptions? Avoid them whenever possible? "If I warn learners about the misconceptions as I teach, they are less likely to happen. Prevention is better than cure.” Use them as learning opportunities? "I actively encourage learners to make mistakes and to learn from them.”
15
Diagnostic teaching. Source: Swann, M : Gaining diagnostic teaching skills: helping students learn from mistakes and misconceptions, Shell Centre publications “ Traditionally, the teacher with the textbook explains and demonstrates, while the students imitate; if the student makes mistakes the teacher explains again. This procedure is not effective in preventing... misconceptions or in removing [them]. Diagnostic teaching..... depends on the student taking much more responsibility for their own understanding, being willing and able to articulate their own lines of thought and to discuss them in the classroom”.
16
Diagnosis of misconceptions. Misconception: Multiplication always makes numbers larger. Challenge: Require explanations that include diagrams or manipulatives to illustrate thinking.
17
Example of dealing with a misconception. One way to contrast or challenge this misconception might be to get agreement among students via discussion of the various answers and explanations of answers.
18
Two ways to teach... M. Swann, Improving Learning in Mathematics, DFES
19
Importance of dealing with misconceptions: 1) Teaching is more effective when misconceptions are identified, challenged, and ameliorated. 2) Pupils face internal cognitive distress when some external idea, process, or rule conflicts with their existing mental schema. 3) Research evidence suggests that the resolutions of these cognitive conflicts through discussion leads to effective learning.
20
Some principles to consider Encourage learners to explore misconceptions through discussion. Focus discussion on known difficulties and challenging questions. Encourage a variety of viewpoints and interpretations to emerge. Ask questions that create a tension or ‘cognitive conflict' that needs to be resolved. Provide meaningful feedback. Provide opportunities for developing new ideas and concepts, and for consolidation.
21
Look at a task from the unit What major mathematical concepts are involved in the task? What common mistakes and misconceptions will be revealed by the task? How does the task: – encourage a variety of viewpoints and interpretations to emerge? – create tensions or 'conflicts' that need to be resolved? – provide meaningful feedback? – provide opportunities for developing new ideas?
22
Misconceptions It is important to realize that inevitably students will develop misconceptions… Askew and Wiliam 1995; Leinwand, 2010; NCTM, 1995; Shulman, 1996
23
Misconceptions Therefore it is important to have strategies for identifying, remedying, as well as for avoiding misconceptions. Leinwand, 2010; Swan 2001; NBPTS, 1998; NCTM, 1995; Shulman, 1986;
24
Misconception – Invented Rule? Misconceptions from America’s Choice Thinking that decimals are bigger than fractions because fractions are really small things. Thinking that you cannot convert a fraction to a decimal—that they can not be compared because they are different things.
25
Misconception- Invented Rule? Student misapplies knowledge of whole numbers when reading decimals and ignores the decimal point. Example: Student reads the number 45.7 as, “four fifty- seven” or “four hundred fifty-seven.”
26
Misconception – Invented Rule? Student misapplies procedure for rounding whole numbers when rounding decimals and rounds to the nearest ten instead of the nearest tenth, etc. Example: Round 3045.26 to the nearest tenth. Student responds, “3050” or “3050.26”
27
Misconceptions bit.ly/OsvoV7 learnzillion.com
28
Misconceptions Student has restricted his definition of decimals to one type of situation or model, such as base ten blocks. Example: Student does not recognize decimals as points on a number line, representations of fractions, or as division calculations.
29
Misconception – Invented Rule? Student misapplies rules for comparing whole numbers in decimal situations. Examples: 0.058 > 0.21 because 58 > 21 2.04 > 2.5 because it has more digits
30
Misconception – Invented Rule? Thinking that a decimal is just two ordinary numbers separated by a dot The decimal point in money separates the dollars from the cents 100 cents is $0.100 The decimal point is used to separate units of measure 1.5 feet is 1 foot 5 inches
31
Misconception- Invented Rule? When adding a sequence, adding the decimal part separately from the whole number part Example: Adding.25 beginning with.5 0.50, 0.75, 0.100 rather than 0.50, 0.75, 1.00
32
Misconception- Invented Rule? Adding or subtracting without considering place value, or starting at the right as with whole numbers Example: 4.15 + 0.1 = 34.16 or 12 – 0.1 = 11
33
Misconception- Invented Rule? Believing that two decimals can always be compared by looking at their “lengths” Example: “longer numbers are always bigger,” or “shorter numbers are always bigger”
34
Misconception- Invented Rule? Misunderstanding the use of zero as a placeholder Example 1.5 is the same as 1.05 Thinking that decimals with more digits are smaller because tenths are bigger than hundredths and thousandths Example.845 is smaller than.5 Thinking that decimals with more digits are larger because they have more numbers 1,234 is larger than 34 so 0.1234 is larger than 0.34
35
Misconception- Invented Rule? Mistakenly applying what they know about fractions; Example: 1/204 > 1/240, so 0.204 > 0.240 Mistakenly applying what they know about whole numbers Example: 600 > 6, so 0.600 > 0.6
36
Misconception- Invented Rule? Believing that placing zeros to the right of the decimal number change the value of the number Example: 0.4 is smaller than 0.400 because 4 is smaller than 400, or 0.81 is closer to 0.85 than 0.81 is to 0.8 Believing that a number that has only tenths is larger than a number that has thousandths Example: 0.5 > 0.936 because 0.936 has thousandths and 0.5 has only tenths
37
Misconception- Invented Rule? Not recognizing the denseness of decimals. Example: There are no numbers between 3.41 and 3.42 There are a finite number of expressions that will add or subtract to get a given decimal number
38
Misconception- Invented Rule? When multiplying by a power of ten, multiplying both sides of the decimal point by the power of ten 6.9 × 10 = 60.90 When dividing by a power of ten, dividing both sides of the decimal point by the power of ten 70.5 ÷ 10 = 7 1/2

Questions from the Wiki Why so many essential questions? How on earth can we get all this done in the time we have? Powers of ten notation.
55
Basic Understandings for Teachers Build on informal understandings of sharing and proportionality. Students need to understand that decimals are numbers with magnitudes.
56
Explanations and Examples
57
Basic Understandings for Teachers If children do not have a secure understanding of place value, ordering and rounding whole numbers they will not have the prerequisite skills and understanding to move onto decimals.
58
Basic Understandings for Teachers Teachers should present decimal problems in real-world contexts with plausible numbers.
59
Basic Understandings for Teachers Context matters. Think carefully about money and measurement contexts.
60
Basic Understandings for Teachers Context matters. Think carefully about money and measurement contexts.
61
Basic Understandings for Teachers Visual representations of decimals help develop conceptual understanding of computational procedures. Students should be taught to estimate answers to problems before computing the answers, so that they can judge the reasonableness of their computed answers.
