After reading all your suggestions we decided to change and improve some ideas about our project.
With your suggestions we decided:
1) To change our rules and points in order to give opportunity to students with lower achievement at Math to compete equaly with the others;
2) To use kahoots to challenge them;
3) To have a final prize. However, instead of a Math book as suggested, we decided to give a smartband to each grade (7th, 8th and 9th). We hope that this wonderful prize can engage students even more in tha task!
Final Rules:
- Each challenge (has 3 exercises):
- Three correct answers: 140 points
- Two correct answers: 90 points
- One correct answer: 50 points
- Did not make the challenge or no correct answers: 0 points
- Scores in Math tests:
- 0% - 19 %: 0 points
- 20% - 49%: 100 points
- 50% - 69%: 200 points
- 70% - 89%: 300 points
- 90% - 100%: 400 points
- Marks at the end of each school term:
- Mark 1: 0 points
- Mark 2: 70 points
- Mark 3: 150 points
- Mark 4: 240 points
- Mark 5: 340 points
- Marks from the 1st to the 2nd school term:
- If student increases the previous mark: 200 points
- If student keeps the previous mark (if the mark is 3 or 4 or 5): 150 points
- If student keeps the previous mark (if the mark is 1 or 2): 0 points
- If students decrease previous mark: -50 points (loses points)
