Description

The individualized lesson was structured as three sequenced activities through which students progressed at their own pace: solving 10 equations in the Algebra Touch application with interactive tools, a written exercise with the problem distributed as a PDF in iTunesU requiring a full solution with proof in notebooks, and the Orbit Integers game in which up to four students compete on one racetrack. Finishing one activity visibly signalled the transition to the next, making progress easy to monitor.

Design Implications

Context

Requirements

  • Each student needs a tablet with access to the iTunesU course, and notebooks for the written activity; the teacher sets rules for notebook work at the start.

Constraints

  • The game component requires an internet connection to place up to four students on one racetrack.

Target Learners

  • 12-13-year-old students in a regular mathematics classroom

Learning Goals

  • practicing simple equations
  • developing general math skills needed for solving equations
