During a unit on matrices and determinants, a teacher notices that several students consistently make errors when multiplying matrices. Instead of simply repeating examples, she gives a short diagnostic task designed to reveal where their thinking breaks down. Based on their responses, she forms a small group, revisits prerequisite ideas with concrete examples, and asks students to verbalize each step, so she can listen closely to their reasoning and adjust explanations. Which aspect of effective remediation is best reflected in the teacher's approach?
- 1Ignoring student explanations while re-teaching the same method
- 2Using diagnostic assessment and targeted instruction to address specific learning gaps✓
- 3Assuming all students learn at the same pace and in the same way
- 4Speeding through material without diagnosing misunderstandings
Correct answer
