The student pilot was performing touch-and-go landings. During the landing roll, the student pilot intended to retract the flaps, but accidently extended the flaps further. While correcting the flap setting, the student pilot transferred his attention inside the cockpit and the airplane veered to the left. The student pilot pulled the throttle back before the airplane departed the side of the runway. The airplane's nose wheel collapsed, and the airplane came to rest in the grass resulting in substantial damage to the fuselage. An examination of the airplane did not reveal any flight control anomalies.
Probable Cause: The student pilot did not maintain directional control of the airplane while landing. Contributing to the accident was the pilot's diverted attention to the incorrect flap setting.
