| Abstract: |
Too often students view mathematics topics as isolated from each other and believe mathematics is disconnected from the world in which they live. Teachers need ways to engage students in tasks and experiences designed to deepen their understanding of the mathematical connections in the world in which they live. One way teachers can do this is to allow students to experience mathematics in context, thus making mathematics relevant to their lives and connecting it to the world in which they live. A lesson plan incorporating the use of technology, namely Calculator Based Laboratories (CBLs), can provide students with this experience. In this course, you will learn to design an inquiry-based lesson plan incorporating CBLs for use in your own mathematics classroom. This lesson plan will be aligned to local, state and national mathematics standards. |
| Outcomes: |
After completion of this course, you will be able to:
- Develop a lesson plan that incorporates a CBL experiment in
a way that supports your curriculum.
- Select algebra investigations using CBLs that align with your
curriculum.
- Identify the various CBL probes' capabilities and mathematical
applications.
- Design a data organizational tool for student use that is "user-friendly"
and suitable for use with this CBL investigation.
- Describe an assessment plan that is appropriate for experiment-oriented
lessons.
- Create a rubric for evaluating student work and performance.
