Common mistakes

The misconceptions stored on this entity, with the correction to give.

  • Confident students rush number set notation and skip the checking step.

    Correction: Build in an estimate-before-solve routine so an unreasonable answer stands out.

  • Learners over-generalise a special case of number set notation to every situation.

    Correction: Present a deliberate non-example and ask why the rule fails.
