The 0Maths blogDifferentiation built in
A 0maths class can be more differentiated than on any other platform:
- Difficulty levels
At a click of a button, students can make a question easier or harder. Depending on the question type, this may mean there's an illustration, an interactive widget, some other form of scaffolding, or it may just mean easier numbers.
- Same topic, different year
Pupils in a mixed class can be doing stage appropriate work in the same topic - ie direct the kids to area and there's everything from rectangles, through triangles, kites, parallelograms, trapezia, circles and segments (and more!). Pupils will see a stage-appropriate list of topics. There are, of course, difficulty levels within each of those topics.
- Personal adaptations
A teacher can do a lot to customise 0maths for each child, we have about 30 personal adaptations, including dyslexia fonts and settings, a minimally distracting environment for ADD / ADHD, and of course a host of maths anxiety settings, including minimally different questions. These can be set up in bulk to save time.
- Foundation topics
At a click, pupils can go back and revisit foundation topics.
- Setting assignments
As 0maths gets to know each student, we can (optionally) tweak the difficulty level of each question to each pupil's individual ability. Pupils can also be free to revert to foundation topics for topics they're unfamiliar with.
- Worked solutions
Glossary linked worked solutions keep the whole class moving forward.
