The Science of Understanding
In Japan, TTP has been well established in schools since 1990, with a focus on developing the ability to apply knowledge. It is said that when new ideas meet existing knowledge, new understanding is achieved. For essential improvement in math grades, it is crucial not just to memorize knowledge but to understand concepts that can be applied to unfamiliar tasks.
Evidence of conceptual understanding
This graph from TIMSS shows the relationship between the percentage of test material covered in class (X-axis) and the students' accuracy rates (Y-axis). Results from Japan show that students are managing to correctly answer questions on topics they have not yet studied by applying knowledge from previously learned subjects.
Elevate creative thinking!
To understand concepts, students first need to establish creative solutions on their own. Our LoiLo TTP Math curriculum focuses on creating moments for students to form their own thoughts and elevate those thoughts through peer discussion. Not only does this improve math grades, but it enhances students' critical thinking abilities.

Orchestrate TTP lessons for optimal understanding
Four types of lessons that generate "The Science of Understanding":
1. Investigate a new math concept by using existing knowledge.
2. Learn different solutions from friends and teachers.
3. Apply what you've learned.
4. Take on higher-level problems to test your application skills and review again.

Review “Stepping Stones” lessons for optimal individualized learning
For students who have knowledge gaps, we have collected unit summary cards that allow for quick review in a short amount of time. These short lessons are called Stepping Stones. Teachers can distribute these Cards to students individually to support their learning, or students can retrieve the cards themselves. They are also ideal for review before tests.
