Instructional Strategy & Learner Participation

=See strategies in the instructional activity section.=
 * Instructor will ask for any examples of learner’s previous experience with errors made in calculations with equations and integer operations by students in their math classes and record their responses.
 * Instructor will the state those errors and determine which are the most profound.
 * Learners will record information about which errors using signed integers are the most profound in their classes on a fist list.
 * Based on the fist lists, learners will discuss error categories independently with each other and the instructor.
 * Instructor will ask for learners to discuss how they can insert a new method for teaching students to retain the information without making any calculation errors.
 * Instructor will guide learner’s through folding an 8.5x11 in piece of paper in half, drawing a line horizontally and vertically through it in the shape of a T.
 * Instructor will then show the learner’s how to label one side addition and the other subtraction both of signed integers.
 * Instructor will show the learners how to place examples of each type of problem beginning with the simplest type and then inserting a brief explanation next to each example.

<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">Student Groupings
 * <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">Learners will be grouped by subject area, so that learners will be able to share more common experiences within their curriculum.

<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">Media Selections
 * <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">Paper/Pencil
 * <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">Projector
 * <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">Smartboard
 * <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">Computers-Laptops or Desktops

<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">Assessment: Practice Test
 * <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">Given a picture of a negative and positive number, learners will be able to choose the negative number.
 * <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">Match the correct word with the correct mathematical notation.
 * <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">Describe, in your own words, how to make a correct T-Chart to be used as a reference guide, to show that you can recreate the chart.

<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">Feedback
 * <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">Entire class reviews the test to ensure correctness.
