Pedagogies
How are technology, content, and pedagogical knowledge working together in this lesson?
This lesson is designed as a synthesis of information from the chapter (and parts of a previous
chapter). The students will be applying their knowledge in a group project. They’ll share ideas
and plans with each other. They’ll need to apply quadratic equations and interpret the results
and
mathematical properties in terms of a real-life object (a coin fountain). The project also requires
the group create a fountain mathematically and create a visual representation to show the
class.
Feedback Strategy
