The Methodology

I thought the methodology was going to be the hardest part in writing my action research plan, but it ended up being the part where I was able to see all of my work come together.  Putting the methodology together made this plan seem real.  I feel ready and confident about implementing this action research.

Students will be given a pre- and post-test to determine if the DPR strategy was effective in helping students master mathematics facts.  Below you will find my overall methodology.


Measurement: Pre-testTreatment:Measurement: Post-Test
Student Achievement: Mastery of mathematics FactsExperimental: Students will be exposed to the DPR strategy
Control: Students will not get the DPR strategy and only assigned mathematics facts homework on a weekly basis.
Student Achievement: Mastery of mathematics Facts









Do you want to see if you are smarter than a 6th grader?  Take an example of a pre-test the students will take.  This is a shorter version with only 40 questions.  You can use the enter key to move you to the next problem.  Once you are finished please leave a comment with your score and how long it took you to answer all of the questions.

  1. Hard to do on an iPad. Did not accept my answer for (1x1) so I got 39 in 2:14

  2. 40 in 3 mins! Slow and steady wins the race, right? Loved being able to use my phone/device instead of paper and pencil!

  4. 38/40 in 1:25 sec. I goofed and typed two answers backwards 54 for 45 and 18 for 81. It was fun using tech to do it.
