  3. Preliminaries to UMathX • In 1988, Rudy Neufeld attended a symposium by • DrSeymour Papertat MIT. • Papert was a pioneer of Artificial Intelligence and of • Constructivist Learning, learning with active involvement. • He developed the LOGOprogramming language where a • small robot, a “turtle” is programmed.

  4. Preliminaries to UMathX • Neufeld developed resources to use Robots and Logoin teaching teachers and students including those who were hearing impaired. • This led to ideas on teaching and learning mathematics. • It is with this mindset, that he, along with a dedicated group of programmers began to author “Understanding Math”, predecessor of UMathX , in the 1980s and 1990s.

  5. UMathX – the 10th version is … A browser-based, computer-assisted learning system that blends a variety of approaches to help students develop deeper understanding of mathematics concepts from K to Algebra 1. A full service learning environment, supporting a ‘growth mindset’ within a ‘learning pit’ encouraging students to ‘grapple’ with concepts through productive struggling, assessments, diagnostics and data analysis for a variety of mathematics curricula.

  20. Classroom Learning Environments for UMathX…

  21. In Preparation for UMathXLesson 1 for All Log into www.umathx.com/previewwith the secure password and login given to you. You may setup a new login & password at www.umathx.com under “preview”. From theUMathX Menu, follow the path below and work through Hexagon1and on .. Fractions>Equivalent Fractions>Pattern Blocks>Hexagon 1 and on .. From the TEKS Menu, select 3.3.F.i . Click <Lessons> Select Hexagon1. Work through a few screens. Click on Click on <Frameworks> and select <Equivalent Fractions -1> Go to www.umathx.comand select Training SelectUMathX-TreasureHunt–TEKS–Kto5 or 6toAlg1 Work through the Treasure Hunt. Select a few of the examples that fit your grade level. Work through them.

  22. Lesson 1 for All Step 1We suggest a teacher directed whole class lesson here for all students. Make sure that your interactive board or projector and computer are ready. The computer has a mouse. In K to 1 or 2, we suggest that students sit on your learning carpet in front of the screen or interactive board. In all classes, we suggest that you choose a student to be the computer pilot as you direct. Step 2 Go through relevant previous screens 6 to 19 of this powerpoint. Discuss the contents of the slides with them. Step 3 Keep the information in this lesson simple and short. Go to any browser. Reinforce where that is. Show them their URL … possibly ... www.umathx.com/preview This is the name of their virtual UMathX School. Step 2 Review Visit www.umathx.comand play 3 videos: UMathX – What is it? – The Learning Pit • UMathX– Navigation • UMathX– Frameworks for Learning Step 3 Log into www.umathx.com/cclc with secure password and login given to you. • From theUMathX Menu, follow the path below and work through Hexagon1and on .. • Fractions>Equivalent Fractions>Pattern Blocks>Hexagon 1 and on .. • From the CCSS Menu, select 3.NF.01.03b. Click <Lessons> Select Hexagon1. • Go to www.umathx.comand select Training • SelectUMathX-TreasureHunt–CCSS–Kto5 or 6toAlg1 and work through the Treasure Hunt. • Select one of the examples that is a fit for your grade level and work through it.

  23. Step 4 You login with your login and password. They receive theirs later. Step 5 Click on “Enter the Program”. Maximize the screen. Direct your student navigator to the UMathX menu on the left. Navigate to Fractions and just hover over the word. Then navigate to the right - hover over Equivalent Fractions Then navigate to the right and hover over Pattern Blocks Then navigate the mouse to the right and click on Hexagon 1. Step 6 Note functionality of the <proceed> button and of the <enter> key. This gives the operator time to think. When the <proceed> button is not shown, then there is another instruction on the screen which one should look for. Step 7 Note when any sentence is double clicked, the line is read and it is highlighted to help with reading and word recognition.

  24. Step 8 Emphasize that a mistake is an opportunity to learn. If there is a flashing cursor in a text field, enter a number or letters depending on what is asked for. Then press the <enter> button. When you press the <enter> button, you are commanding, DO IT! Step 9 After you have worked through some of this lesson, clear the screen by clicking on the HOME icon at the top. Click on the logout button to the far right. Have another student, key in a login and password. Repeat previous steps to review them by choosing another topic. Repeat this process with a number of students. Step 10Note the correct way to login and logout. When one clicks on the X on the far top right on screen, one is thrown out of the program. For security reasons another person cannot login for 2 minutes.

  25. Step 11 Inform the class on how you plan to use UMathX – alone on one computer, small group or pair and whole group. In group work each student will have a role. Step 12Discuss “grappling” and the “learning pit” with your students. Students formulate their ideas and knowledge in many different ways. When in pairs or small groups, we want students to discuss. The teacher will rarely give answers during the lesson. Try to work towards this situation. Step 13 If one answers incorrectly, the computer will give up to 3 hints. One cannot continue until one has entered the correct answer. IDEA: Tell them .. “If you have a question for the teacher, turn the empty cup on your desk UP. Only ask the teacher if you have discussed it with your partner(s). The teacher is not a “teller”.

  26. Step 14 Everyone is a partner in learning. Everyone is important along with UMathX, the paper, the manipulatives, the teacher. Step 15 When they walk in tomorrow, there will be 1 page on their desk. (a framework) It will tell them what to do. If they are working in pairs, they share the one page. They bring a pencil. The teacher will help with reading the framework if needed. Step 16 The student will follow instructions on the page. When the instruction is to go to the UMathX menu, only then do they proceed to a computer station and login to UMathX. Stress the importance of learning with a variety of approaches. The framework will lead the student through 3 steps. Step 17 Inform students that theymay access UMathXfrom home. If you wish to review the above, log into www.umathx.com/preview with your login and password. Navigate to 3.3.F.i
