Exponential and Logistic Modeling Internet Project
Using the provided URL, the applet provides a population growth simulation for two scenarios: exponential and logistic. This worksheet presents an orderly way to explore both, taking into account pros and cons for each. May be used for solely exponential modeling, though the logistic modeling helps students judge between different types of mathematical modeling. Worksheet includes a total of 6 "Experiments" to run with the simulation. Can be done in a computer lab in one hour. May be used e

Teaching style
Non-American. Costa Higher Level, Bloom's Taxonomy, behaviorist, meta-cognition, bilingual, no spoon-feeding. I love teaching theory along with application. I hold students accountable for their learning. I had my Algebra 2 students working on functions and had them doing Newton difference quotient derivatives by the end of the day. I read math and science education research and am fascinated with the TIMMS. I look to our foreign counterparts for my pedagogy. I don't give homework. My students are successful and can overtake honors students in their depth and knowledge.
