Enhancing Student Understanding through Role Play and Problem Solving in Virtual Education

In this reflective practice activity, educators are tasked with facilitating a role-play scenario to ensure students gain a comprehensive understanding of math problems. Working collaboratively, teachers should focus on problem-solving and assess students' comprehension through targeted questioning strategies. The featured math problems involve concepts such as fractions and systems of equations, promoting deeper engagement. Additionally, educators will use online tools, including chat and whiteboards, to facilitate real-time interaction, enhancing the learning experience in a virtual environment.

Presentation Transcript

  1. Reflecting on Practice • Week 3 • Day 2

  2. Role Play • Your goal (as a room) is to ensure a student has successful completed the problems. • Work at your table with the problems on the next slide • Make sure the entire table has a complete understanding! • What questions might you ask to see if a student has a similar complete understanding?

  3. Math Problems • Penny had some marbles.  She gave 1/4 to Jose and 1/3 of those remaining to Mari.  She had 24 marbles left.  How many did she start with? • Tom had twice as many marbles as Mari.  Together Mari and Jose had 20 marbles.  Tom had 5 less marbles than Jose.  How many marbles did they have all together.  • Solve the systems of equations:  2x+3y=4            and   4x+5y=6 5x+6y=7                     7x+8y=9What do you notice and why?

  4. Environment • Our student will be at the other end of the Internet • You will be able to ask questions via the chat window or by drawing something on the whiteboard. • Our environment is Google+ Hangout, a free & evolving online teaching environment

  5. Questions to Ponder… • Take a couple of minutes to reflect, by yourself, on the questions that were used that probefor student understanding. • What evidence do you have of student understanding or misunderstanding that came from the questions that were asked? • What is the difference between the questions that DO probe and those that DON’T? • What did you notice about the features of the questions that were good questions? • Were there any questions that were missed that may have been able to probe for student understanding? Or maybe some generalizations you’ve observed?
