Research to make kids better at math

WHAT IS THE RESEARCH ABOUT?

Scientific research is the investigation of theories and hypothesis.It is conducting of experiments about different methods of teaching.

I learnt from the article that flipped classrooms are one of the ways to make kids better at math.Flipped classroom is where the kids stay at home browsing through the computer and the internet to research and learn about the topic that they have been told to do.In school, they discuss about what they have done at home and also solve problems and questions.For example, teachers use this method to teach algebra concepts. Students are told to stay at home watching videos instead of lectures in class.

Posture can improve understanding of math concepts . This is because sitting up straight makes students more alert and pay more attention in class.For example,students who had difficulty with mathematics while slouching were struggling with test anxiety.

I came up with a great solution!But it needs to be tested and proven to other people.

I made an observation that children did not pay attention in class and most of them liked mobile devices.

Therefore, I made a hypothesis that children will pay attention if their teacher uses devices in class.

In this experiment, my independent variable is whether the teacher is using mobile devices,my control variable is the number of students in the class and the topic that was taught , and lastly, the dependent variable is the class test scores after the lesson.

A possible result is that most of the students will score better in their class test if the teacher uses a device to teach them.

A possible error is different type of classes have different type of students at different learning paces, thus ,the results will not be fair.

What do you think of my suggestion?
