📈 Individualized Math Skills
In our class, we will use a systemic approach to leverage the resources available at Khan Academy to identify and address your unique math skills gaps at a variety of levels. This system involves identification, individualized learning activities, and progress monitoring.

🔎 Identification

First, you will complete a diagnostic test that samples skills from a particular math course or grade level. We will begin with courses below your current grade level and refer to each as your mastery course. These assessments are called the course challenges at Khan Academy and links to them are located at the top and bottom of each math course page. Course challenges typically include 30 questions representing the skills included in that course.

The purpose of a course challenge in our system is to help us understand what you know and what you have not yet learned. Course challenges should be stress-free and are NOT graded based on how many you answer correctly. You should spend no more than 2-3 minutes on each problem. We want to determine what you know now, not what you may be able to reason your way through if provided enough time. 

It is important to complete course challenges with fidelity so we can accurately identify your unique knowledge gaps and then work together to address those as efficiently as possible.

🚜 Course challenges are like plowing a field. As is the case with your math skills at any particular level, a field can look great on the surface but have problematic rocks underneath. The rocks are easier to find and address after plowing.  The same is true of gaps in your foundational math knowledge.

📊 Progress monitoring

Your Learner home page at Khan Academy provides a wide variety of metrics regarding your individual growth and the progress you have made toward your mastery goals at each level.

For example, you can navigate to your Learner home page and click on Progress under MY ACCOUNT in the left sidebar to see all of your recent progress at Khan Academy. This is similar to reports that are accessible to your teacher and can be used to track your recently leveled-up skills.

To count how many Attempted skills you have leveled up within the last week, for example, open your Progress page, and filter for the appropriate date range (i.e. last Thursday through this Wednesday). To see only progress within your Mastery Courses, select Course mastery goals from the All content dropdown. In this report, count all of the skills with upward-pointing green arrows and +2, +3, +4 or +5 in the CHANGE column. 

The screenshot below shows a total of 5 skills that have been leveled up. Note that the report may include multiple pages. Those can be accessed by clicking Next at the bottom of the report.

Additionally, your teacher may use a spreadsheet to showcase progress and generate reports that are easy to share with you, your parents, and other adults who serve in supporting roles.

After identifying attempted skills within a particular mastery course and leveling those skills up to familiar, proficient, or mastered, work with your teacher to determine which course challenge to take next. 

If we conclude that you still have skills to master within the same mastery course, take its course challenge again. The new course challenge will include items representing different skills than before. You may discover some new rocks to address by re-plowing the same field.

If you conclude that you should move on to the next course, it becomes your new mastery course. Complete its course challenge and begin working to level up any attempted skills that turn up.

The process repeats as you successfully fill in your individual foundational skills and knowledge gaps. Note that this system is also effective for learning grade-level and more advanced concepts at Khan Academy, including non-math courses.
