Ability to increase difficulty
Moving into the modern age, we learn the trend of electronics in everyday life. Instead of fighting it, adapting and suiting student's optimal learning style is our top priority.
Why Classcraft?
In a completely-controlled environment, where every variable is to suit optimal learning, difficulty can increase incrementally, improving student's confidence as they are enjoying the game.
Furthermore, as everything is virtual, all student records and progress is tracked and can serve as better feedback.
​
However, parents may have concern with the increased electronics usage, which is why Classcraft will be exclusively used within MathLab only.
personalized learning plan
To get an idea of what personalized learning is, try to picture a classroom that doesn’t have a “one size fits all” approach to education. The teacher doesn’t lead all students through the same lessons. Instead, the teacher guides each student on an individualized journey. The what, when, where and how of learning is tailored to meet each student’s strengths, skills, needs, and interests.
Students may learn some skills at different paces. But their learning plans still keep them on track to meet the standards for a high school diploma.
That kind of classroom isn’t the reality for most students. But it’s the end goal of personalized learning, which is already being used successfully in some schools and is expanding in several states. Here’s what you need to know.
​
What personalized learning is
Kids learn in different ways and at different paces. Personalized learning is a teaching model based on that premise. Each student gets a “learning plan” based on how they learn, what they know, and what their skills and interests are. It’s the opposite of the “one size fits all” approach used in most schools.
Students work with their teachers to set both short-term and long-term goals. This process helps students take ownership of their learning.

Long term understanding
Understanding - Comprehending mathematical concepts, operations, and relations knowing what mathematical symbols, diagrams, procedures mean.
Understanding refers to a student’s grasp of fundamental mathematical ideas. Students with understanding know more than isolated facts and procedures. They know why a mathematical idea is important and the contexts in which it is useful. Furthermore, they are aware of many connections between mathematical ideas.
For example, students who understand division of fractions not only can compute 6÷2/3=9 . They also can represent the operation by a diagram and make up a problem to go with the computation. (If a recipe calls for 2/3 cup of sugar and 6 cups of sugar are available, how many batches of the recipe can be made with the available sugar?)
Knowledge learned with understanding provides a foundation for remembering or reconstructing mathematical facts and methods, for solving new and unfamiliar problems, and for generating new knowledge. For example, students who thoroughly understand whole number operations can extend these concepts and procedures to operations involving decimals.
​
Understanding also helps students to avoid critical errors in problem solving—especially problems of magnitude. Any student with good number sense who multiplies 9.83 and 7.65 and gets 7,519.95 for an answer should immediately see that something is wrong. The answer can’t be more than 10 times 8 or 80, as one number is less than 10 and the other is less than 8. This reasoning should suggest to the student that the decimal point has been misplaced.
