Motivation vs confidence - or do I feel the way I should?
Students were given a Math Attitude Survey. While there were no outstanding trends it was interesting to see how many students said they believed that math was important, would be important in their future and that they should be taking more math classes while at the same time admitting that they found math confusing, or hard, that they felt nervous about taking math classes, that they felt they could not solve problems easily.
To consider: what can be done in Middle School to play on their apparant motivation in order to build confidence.
