• Topic from Task1 A1
Math fact fluency connects the quick, effortless, and accurate recall of basic math
facts of all four operations addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. This is a
fundamental skill that helps students gain mastery and advance their mathematical
learning. Math fact fluency builds the skills to focus on solving complex problems (e.g:
algebraic problem solving) rather than simple computation. However, many students
cannot recall and retain the basic math facts. This is my proposal that I would like to
research interventions and strategies designed to support students who lack this skill and
struggle with math fact fluency.
• Problem Statement from Task1 A2
Students in my high school Algebra 1 class struggle with basic computation due
to a lack of fluency in math facts. High school Algebra 1 students must become fluent in
math facts as this skill becomes especially important in solving complex mathematical
problems (e.g: solving equations). Without mastering the fluency, students might
struggle, get stuck in high school math, and hinder their ability to tackle high school
level math problems, eventually impacting their learning and later high school
graduation. A possible cause of this problem could be the way they are being taught. The
current instructional strategies being used could be the reason for the student’s inability
to master math fact fluency.
