Active Learning Math and Computer Science

This activity has students working in groups to evaluate functions. At first they evaluate functions given a value and are asked to find the domain of the function. The functions are in the form of an equation, a table and a graph. In this way students can be helped to understand functions from three different perspectives. Students are also asked to give examples of functions from the real world. By pairing students together in a collaborative atmosphere students not only develop their coll

This activity has students practicing adding, subtracting, multiplying, dividing and finding the composition of functions. They are given examples from three different perspectives: tabular form, algebraic form and graphical form. Using these three different forms students can gain a deeper understanding of the subject matter. Prerequisites Students have learned the basics of functions Students have learned functional notationStudents have learned compositional notationStudents have been introd
