1 Task: True or False? Grade Level: 8 APS Mathematics Standard: Data Analysis, Statistics, and Probability Mr. Hall gave a quiz with ten true-false questions. When he corrected the quizzes, two students, who will remain anonymous, had identical answers. Unfortunately for them, all of those answers were incorrect. Does Mr. Hall have reason to be suspicious? Explain why or why not. Would he be more or less suspicious if all the answers had been correct? Use math language to explain your answer. Implementation Notes: The mathematics assessments are not designed to be reading tests, when implementing the task, teachers should read the tasks orally to their students, and make sure that all students are clear on what the task is asking and answering any questions that students may have. Teachers should not lead the student to a specific strategy or solution. Students may use manipulatives to work the problem to a solution. Students should not be limited by the amount of space at the bottom of the task to complete the problem. Allow students as much paper as they need to solve the task. Although recommended times are given for each assessment, the assessments are untimed and teachers should allow students as much time as needed to complete each task. Students must do individual work on the performance assessments. (No group work or collaborations are allowed.) Context From the Task Author: This task was given to students during a unit on probability. Previously the class had studied how to find the probability of independent events (which answers on a true-false test would be). We had recently learned how Pascal's Triangle could be used to find probabilities and many of the students used that knowledge when solving this task. What the task accomplishes Students enjoyed this task. They could easily relate to the situation. Beyond the problem of finding the probabilities, this task gave opportunity for great connections as the student could analyze why Mr. Hall should or should not be suspicious. What students will do Students will recognize that this is an independent event with an outcome of 1:2. Those students who understand the patterns and applications of Pascal s Triangle will quickly begin work on the 10 th row of the pattern to determine the probabilities for the 10-correct/incorrect answers. Students will realize that the probability of getting 10 correct answers is the same for getting 10 incorrect answers. Time Required: Most students completed the task within the 45-minute class period. Interdisciplinary Links: I wrote this task after discussing cheating on quizzes with a teammate. Perhaps students will consider this task the next time they are tempted to copy off a neighbor's quiz. Pre-Assessment Activity: This task should be given at the end of a unit on probability. Students will need to do the task Pascal s Triangle included with this task. Teachers should start with students identifying the patterns within the triangle and then do probability of independent events so students have experience applying the concepts. There are excellent resources available on probability concepts and activities. The I Hate Mathematics! Book Marilyn Burns APS/RDA/CHF: Performance-Based Mathematics Assessment Page 1
2 Math for Smarty Pants Marilyn Burns Probability Games and Other Activities Ivan Moscovich How Math Works by Carol Vorderman. A Note about Teacher Resources: The first place teacher s should look for pre-assessment activities is the curriculum materials they are currently using in the classroom. The materials that are suggested here are additional supplemental activities. Teaching Tips Students need to recognize when the outcome of one event, in this case the answers on a quiz, is independent of the outcome of a previous event. They must then be able to multiply the probabilities for each event together or be able to "read" Pascal's Triangle to find their solution. Explaining whether or not Mr. Hall should be suspicious brings a higher level of thought process into the problem. Some students were not able to get there, while others analyzed the situation carefully. Suggested Materials: Calculators, paper and pencil, some may need manipulatives to determine the 1:2 outcome of the True-False Quiz. Calculator Note: Students should use calculators to solve this problem, it would be too time consuming to have students compute their calculations by hand. The intent of the task is to determine if students can use formulas and interpret data. Task Modification for Special Needs Students: To modify the task, adjust the number of questions on the quiz to 5.If the student uses manipulatives, encourage them to use the manipulatives to help them write/represent their answers on the paper. Teachers may modify the task for gifted students adjusting the number of questions on the quiz to 20. If any of the task had to be modified for a student, remember to mark the student s computer score sheet as modified. Possible Solution Step 1: Initial Analysis The student determines that answering True/False questions are a 1:2 probability (correct/incorrect). The student determines that each answer is an independent event and can use Pascal s Triangle to determine the probability of choosing 10 incorrect answers out of 10 questions. Step 2: The student represents Pascal s Triangle. Row 10: Step 3: Analysis of Pascal s Triangle (See the task Pascal s Triangle for an in-depth analysis.) The student adds the sum of row 10. The sum is 1024 The student compares the results of scoring 10 out of 10 answers correct, 9:10 correct, etc. to 0:10 correct. 1:1024 if 10:10 correct 10:1024 if 9:10 correct 45:1024 if 8:10 correct 120:1024 if 7:10 correct 210:1024 if 6:10 correct 252:1024 if 5:10 correct 210:1024 if 4:10 correct 20:1024 if 3:10 correct 45:1024 if 2:10 correct 10:1024 if 1:10 correct 1:1024 if 0:10 correct Step 4: Conclusion - The student determines that the probability of getting 0 correct on the quiz is 1:1024 and concludes that Mr. Hall should be suspicious of the students for cheating. APS/RDA/CHF: Performance-Based Mathematics Assessment Page 2
3 The probability of a student having all the answers wrong on a 10 question true-false quiz is 1 out of 1024 or (1/2) 10 or 1/1024. The probability of having all the answers correct (if you were randomly guessing) is also 1 out of But Mr. Hall should be more suspicious if all the answers are all wrong than if they are all right. Right answers could be the result of someone studying. Benchmark Descriptors: The benchmark descriptors and rubric are designed to help the teacher analyze student thinking and understanding at each of the four performance levels (Novice, Apprentice, Practitioner, and Expert). The descriptors are generalizations of what student work could look like. It is not possible to anticipate every answer a student can give, so in scoring student work the teacher must use these generalizations to come to their own conclusions as to where a student is performing on the assessment. It is recommended that teachers use the task specific rubric given for the assessment to identify the specific math skills that make up each section of the four performance levels for the task. Teachers should also review the benchmark papers provided to get a sense of the mathematics that students will use to solve the task. If the student does not attempt to solve the task or the work on the problem is completely unrelated to the task, the student s work on the task is considered Unscorable and should not be assigned a performance level of Novice, Apprentice, Practitioner, or Expert. General Rubric Novice The novice will not understand the concept of finding probabilities of independent events and will usually not even address any mathematics in the task. S/he is likely to answer the task by saying that Mr. Hall should check to see if the students were sitting next to each other. Apprentice The apprentice will understand the need to do something with the probability of right and wrong answers. S/he is likely to get bogged down in the process, and perhaps add the denominators of the fractions instead of multiplying. Practitioner The practitioner will successfully find the probability of getting all of the answers right or all of the answers wrong. S/he will use repeated multiplication of ½ rather than using powers of ½ to find the solution. The practitioner will not give an in-depth analysis of whether or not Mr. Hall should be suspicious but will base the reasoning on whether the students sat together. Expert The expert will clearly explain, using appropriate math language, the method used to find the probability of getting all the answers wrong or right. S/he will use either powers of ½ or Pascal s Triangle to find those correct probabilities. The expert will discuss in greater depth whether or not Mr. Hall should be suspicious. S/he may include a student-made version of Pascal s Triangle for a representation. APS/RDA/CHF: Performance-Based Mathematics Assessment Page 3
4 Mathematical Standards Alignment: All of the APS Performance-Based Mathematics Assessments being distributed district-wide in grades 2, 5, and 8 are aligned to the current Albuquerque Public Schools and NCTM Mathematics Standards. Each task lists all of the standards that align with that task. The performance tasks are math rich and align to many aspects of the standards. To focus the teacher on the key mathematics that is intended for the problem, Target Performance Standards have been indicated for each task. The dominant mathematics strand that the task covers is listed first. Every task covers Strand I: Global Mathematical Processes and is listed last.
