The Blue Progression gem is achieved when a student passes an exercise and a test within Tutor. If there is no test and only an exercise, then a student will receive a blue progression gem if they pass the exercise. The pass mark for an exercise is 70% and 60% for a test. Students must demonstrate an understanding of the concept to progress.
A child cannot receive the blue progression gem in the red retention gem area by replaying exercises or challenges. Maths-Whizz encourages 45 - 60 minutes of usage per week, and within that time, students should receive a minimum of three blue progression gems. The amount of gems that a child has received is represented in a variety of areas in Maths-Whizz:
1. On the student status page, represented by the number of blue progression gems in the weekly gems eight-week history.
2. In the weekly tutoring map. This is represented by the number of blue progression gems that are found next to the student’s avatar on the top left-hand corner of the page.
