Partnership with HeyMath!

• Anglican High School partnered with HeyMath! from 2005 with the objective to improve student performance.
• Entire cohort of Sec 1 to Sec 4 students are on the HeyMath! E-learning system.

Check Your Understanding (CYU)

• CYU is an innovative feature developed by HeyMath! to assist teachers test the students' comprehension in the lessons taught.
• It is a bite sized online test available at the end of each lesson.
• It achieves a tighter integration between instruction and assessment.
• It provides teachers with useful data on students' progress.
• HOD Maths used the CYUs to test Sec 4 level students on the topic 'Differentiation and Integration'.
• Once the students have completed the CYUs, he then views the report to check the students' performance on the given topic.

Here's what the curriculum leader at the school had to say

I asked the students to do the Check Your Understanding (CYU) section when I was teaching Differentiation and Integration. I like the way that the answers provided may be in a different form to what the students worked out. This required students to do some algebraic manipulation to work towards the given answer. I find this an added bonus as students not only check their understanding of the topic but also practice their algebraic manipulation too.
