The pre-test consisted of 10 questions that spanned the material of the unit.
The students had clearly not been exposed to most of the content I would be
teaching. Most of the students missed all the questions. There was a major
improvement in the post-test. The average score was 77.28. That said, there were
five students who failed the test, scoring below 60 percent. Three of the failing
students were girls, two were boys, and all of them were white. These students did
most of their homework, but its possible they cheated off friends.
Males outscored females, with averages of 78.8 and 74.8 respectively. Asians
scored the highest of all the ethnicities, with an average of 82%, followed by whites
averaging 78.3. Hispanics/Latinos and Pacific Islanders tied, both having averages of
71 percent.

I had two questions on my test that had many students miss. As you can see in the
above chart, number 12 had the large majority of students miss it, and number 14
stumped half of my students. These were both subjects that I felt I did not teach
well, and it was due to time restraints that I was unable to revisit them.
