‟Engaging Students Through Error Analysis Activities ” by Marcela Chiorescu <marcela.chiorescu@gcsu.edu>, Georgia College & State University

Abstract:

Error analysis is an instructional strategy in which students are asked to identify, analyze, and correct errors in problems that contain intentional mistakes. Error analysis has many potential benefits, including enhancing critical thinking skills, promoting a deeper understanding of concepts, cultivating a growth mindset, and fostering collaboration and communication. This presentation will discuss how error analysis activities were implemented in a Precalculus course.
