Answering Questions in MATHstream

During each Skill Stream, you will be prompted to answer questions that appear during and after the video.

The progress bar at the bottom of the video provides a way to see where you are in the stream. The white circles indicate where questions occur.

 

Answer Streaks

You will be rewarded for Answer Streaks and will receive a badge for:

 

Answer Passes

Answer Passes will allow you to maintain your streak, even if you come upon a question that stumps you. If you’re sure you don’t know an answer, you can use your Answer Pass and get a “pass” for that question until you understand it better. Using the Answer Pass prevents you from losing your answer streaks. Be careful though! Only 2 answer passes can be used in one stream.

Answer Streak Repairs allow you to “fix” your streak after breaking it.
