Active Learning Math and Computer Science

This is a multi-day activity that bundles the vertical, horizontal and reflecting activities that are also sold on this site. . Students learn math concepts best when discovering mathematical patterns on their own rather than being told by the teacher. This activity is designed to have the students discover the rules for graphing the transformation of functions by discovering them on their own. Students will be using an online visual tool, Desmos, in order to aid them in their discovery. Stude

Students learn math concepts best when discovering mathematical patterns on their own rather than being told by the teacher. This activity is designed to have the students discover how changing the equation of an exponential function changes its graph into a growth or decaying exponential function. Prerequisites 1. Students have learned the basics of functions 2. Students have learned functional notation 3. Students know how to graph a function by hand given a table of values 4.. Students h

Students learn math concepts best when discovering mathematical patterns on their own rather than being told by the teacher. This activity is designed to have the students discover how to graph inverse functions as reflections across the line y=x. It also leads students to discover the relationship between the domain and range of inverse functions. Finally students will learn how to determine when functions do not have inverses. Prerequisites 1. Students have learned the basics of functions 2.
