Using Clicker Items to
i. Deepen Understanding of Measurement Concepts
ii. Foster Desirable Habits of Mind
Logging In Procedure
1. Turn-on your clicker
2. Wait until it says “Enter Student ID”(Enter your 5-digit ID)
3. The screen should display “ANS”
Suppose p kilometers is equal to q feet, where p and q are positive numbers.
Which statement is correct?a. p > q b. p < qc. p = qd. None of the above
Item 1
Suppose p kilometers is equal to q feet, where p and q are positive numbers.
Which statement is correct?a. p > q b. p < qc. p = qd. None of the above

Suppose p kilometers is equal to q feet, where p and q are positive numbers.
Which statement is correct?a. p > q b. p < qc. p = qd. None of the above
Fact: 1 km 0.62 mile; 1 mile = 5280 feet
HoM: Explore and generalize a pattern

Procedure: 1 km 0.62 x 5280 feet = 3273.6 feet
Concept: Conservation (recognizing smaller units will produce larger counts)

True or False:
If the volume of a rectangular prism is known, then its surface area can be determined.
Item 2
True or False:
If the volume of a rectangular prism is known, then its surface area can be determined.

True or False:
If the volume of a rectangular prism is known, then its surface area can be determined.
HoM: Reasoning with Change and Invariance
Concept: Volume = Length Width Height
This misunderstanding appears to come from an incorrect over-generalization of the very special relationship that exists for a cube.”
(NCTM, 2000, p. 242)
“[S]ome students may hold the misconception that if the volume of a three-dimensional shape is known, then its surface area can be determined.
True or False:
If the surface area of a sphere is known, then its volume can be determined.
Item 3
True or False:
If the surface area of a sphere is known, then its volume can be determined.

True or False:
HoM: Reasoning with Formulas
Concept: A = 4 r 2
V = 4/3 r 3
If the surface area of a sphere is known, then its volume can be determined.
True or False:
If the area of an equilateral triangle is known, then its perimeter can be determined.
Item 4
True or False:
If the area of an equilateral triangle is known, then its perimeter can be determined.

“While mixing up the terms for area and perimeter does not necessarily indicate a deeper conceptual confusion, it is common for middle-grades students to believe there is a direct relationship between the area and the perimeter of shapes and this belief is more difficult to change.In fact, increasing the perimeter of a shape can lead to a shape with a larger area, smaller are, or the same area.”
