This experiment started as my simple idea: "does playing chess before math improve math?" Then the experiment started once I had everything figured out. Here is the experiment that led to STORMCHESS.ORG! š
Red is no chess before and green (blue) is chess before. These are my bar graghs showing my
data
My hypothesis was that if I played chess before doing math problems, it would improve time, accuracy, and focus. For accuracy: After my experiment, I concluded that accuracy was only improved if I played chess less than one hour . Example: Session 4's accuracy was broght down to 7/9 (A session when I played chess before math, but I played chess more than 59.) compared to trial three when it resulted in 9/9 when I played chess around 5 minutes. Focus was not improved, in fact chess broght down focus. Time was improved for example 2.14 min. for chess before compared with 4.54 min. for no chess.
