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.
• 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.
New Concept: I can flip the numbers in a multiplication problem and get the same answer.
Existing idea: I can also do this when I’m adding numbers. Accom
modation
Misconception: This will work for subtraction and division.
Misconception: Commutative property applies when I divide numbers.
Cognitive conflict: The answers don’t make sense anymore.
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.”
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”.
Diagnosis of misconceptions.
Misconception: I can use commutative property when dividing.
Challenge: Flip a contextual situation, and see what happens.
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.
Two ways to teach...
M. Swann, Improving Learning in Mathematics, DFES
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.
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.
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?
MisconceptionsIt is important to realize that inevitably
students will develop misconceptions…
Askew and Wiliam 1995; Leinwand, 2010; NCTM, 1995; Shulman, 1996
MisconceptionsTherefore 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;
Misconception – Invented Rule? The student may know the commutative
property of multiplication but fails to apply it tosimplify the “work” of multiplication.
Example:
Student states that 9 × 4 = 36 with relative ease, but struggles to find theproduct of 4 × 9.
Misconceptions from America’s Choice
Activate your Brain Does order count in multiplication? Can you tell by looking at the “shape” of the multiplication table?
Misconceptions
The student does not understand the distributive property and does not know how to applyit to simplify the “work” of multiplication.
Example:Student has reasonable facility with multiplication facts but cannot multiply 12 × 8 or 23 × 6.
Activate your Brain Algorithm A: •Take a number•Add 1•Double your answer
http://www.parentingscience.com/critical-thinking-in-children.html
Algorithm B: • Take a
number• Double it• Add 2 to
your answer
Explain why algorithms A and B will always give the same output if you give them the same input.
From learner.org
Activate your Brain In what sense are algorithms A and B “the same”? In what sense are they different?
Learner.org/courses/learning math/algebra
Misconception – Invented Rule? The student may know the associative property
of multiplication but fails to apply it tosimplify the “work” of multiplication.
Example:Student labors to find the product of three or more numbers, such as8 × 13 × 5, , because he fails to recognize that it is much easier to multiplythe numbers in a different order.
Misconceptions
• http://learnzillion.com/lessons/46-solve-multiplication-problems-using-associative-property
MisconceptionsThe student can state and give examples of properties of multiplication but does not apply them to simplify computations.
The student multiplies 6 × 12 with relative ease but struggles to find the product 12 × 6. orThe student labors to find the product 12 × 15 because he does not realize that he could instead perform the equivalent but much easier computation, 6 × 30.orThe student has reasonable facility with multiplication facts but cannot multiply 6 × 23.
Explanations and Examples
• 3 + 8 = 8 + 3• 31 + 42 = 42 + 13• 25 + 46 = 46 + 25• 165 + 785 = 785 + 868
Misconception – Invented Rule?The student has overspecialized his knowledge of multiplication or division facts and restricted it to “fact tests” or one particular problem format.Student completes multiplication or division facts assessments satisfactorily but does not apply the knowledge to other arithmetic and problem-solving situations.
MisconceptionsThe student knows how to multiply but does not know when to multiply (other than because he was told to do so, or because the computation was written as a multiplication problem).
Example:Student cannot explain why he should multiply or connect multiplication to actions with materials.
Misconception – Invented Rule? The student knows how to divide but does not know when to divide (other than because she was told to do so, or because the computation was written as a division problem).
Example: Student cannot explain why she should divide or connect division to actions with materials.
Misconceptions• Thinking that division is commutative, for example • 5 ÷ 3 = 3 ÷ 5• Thinking that dividing always gives a smaller number• Thinking that multiplying always gives a larger number• Always dividing the larger number into the smaller: • 4 ÷ 8 = 2
MisconceptionsThe student sees multiplication and division as discrete and separate operations.
His conception of the operations does not include the fact that they are linked as inverse operations. Student has reasonable facility with multiplication facts but cannot master division facts. He may know that 6 × 7 = 42 but fails to realize that this fact also tells him that 42 ÷ 7 = 6.
Student knows procedures for dividing but has no idea how to check the reasonableness of his answers.
MisconceptionsThe student has overspecialized during the learning processso that she recognizes some multiplication and/or divisionsituations as multiplication or division and fails to classifyothers appropriately.Example: Student recognizes that a problem in which 4 children share24 grapes is a division situation but states that a problem inwhich 24 cherries are distributed to children by giving 3cherries to each child is not.
Misconceptions• What vocabulary have we used in our discussion of
misconceptions today?

Revision-ish Unit 3• Page 47- MATHEMATICAL not MATHEMATCIAL
• A revision look ahead- Unit 5, page 26. Correct definition: A trapezoid has at least one set of parallel sides.
Questions from the Wiki•Suggestions abound for variations on Arrays on the Farm• What’s with all those Essential Questions? •The tasks require students to do difficult things before they are fluent. •Where is the practice? •If you slow down to teach the skill, you get behind on pacing.
Basic Understandings for TeachersMisconceptions Some common misconceptions that teachers hold about multiplication and division: Multiplication facts should be taught in numerical order starting with 0 and 1 and then facts less than 5, and then, in order, facts 6 through 12. Multiplication should be taught in isolation with no connection to addition. Multiplication should be taught separately from division. (Wallace & Gurganus, 2005)
Basic Understandings for TeachersTeacher Misconceptions:
As long as students are getting the correct answers, the students are
understanding the material.
Basic Understandings for TeachersStudents need to realize that
multiplication has many meanings and is not just a list of isolated facts. This
can be hard for students to realize and comprehend.
(Wallace & Gurganus, 2005).
Examples & Explanations Standards addressed in Unit 3MCC.3.OA.5 Apply properties of operations as strategies to multiply and divide.Examples: If 6 × 4 = 24 is known, then 4 × 6 = 24 is also known. (Commutative property of multiplication.) 3 × 5 × 2 can be found by 3 × 5 = 15, then 15 × 2 = 30, or by 5 × 2 = 10, then 3 × 10 = 30. (Associative property of multiplication.)Knowing that 8 × 5 = 40 and 8 × 2 = 16, one can find 8 × 7 as 8 × (5 + 2) = (8 × 5) + (8 × 2) = 40 + 16 = 56. (Distributive property.)
Examples & Explanations Standards addressed in Unit 3MCC.3.OA.6 Understand division as an unknown-factor problem.For example, find 32 ÷ 8 by finding the number that makes 32 when multiplied by 8.
Basic Understandings for Teachers
Examples & Explanations Standards addressed in Unit 3MCC.3.OA.7 Fluently multiply and divide within 100, using strategies such as the relationship between multiplication and division (e.g., knowing that 8 × 5 = 40, one knows 40 ÷ 5 = 8) or properties of operations. By the end of Grade 3, know from memory all products of two one-digit numbers.

Examples & Explanations Standards addressed in Unit 3MCC.3.MD.3 Draw a scaled picture graph and a scaled bar graph to represent a data set with several categories. Solve one- and two-step “how many more” and “how many less” problems using information presented in scaled bar graphs. For example, draw a bar graph in which each square in the bar graph might represent 5 pets.
Examples & Explanations Standards addressed in Unit 3MCC.3.MD.4 Generate measurement data by measuring lengths using rulers marked with halves and fourths of an inch. Show the data by making a line plot, where the horizontal scale is marked off in appropriate units – whole numbers, halves, or quarters.
