Graphic Organizer Explanation
My graphic organizer is first broken down into three sections, based on the main headings found in the curriculum document. From there I grouped the overall expectations together in a way that I felt I would teach the course. This created six units. I decided that rates of change would be the first topic cover, as it takes knowledge that students have learned in the previous course and expands on ideas and concepts.The overall concept of rates of change had three overall expectations, which I broke down into three units. The first unit covers expectations that require students to demonstrate an understanding and make connections regarding rates of change. I feel that it is important for students to gain a

From the previous units students have the knowledge and the skills needed to solve real world problems and develop mathematical models. The graphical rules and connections made in units 2 and 3 will set the students up for the curve sketching that will be covering in this unit. I have noticed many connections between the topic of rates of change and derivatives and their applications. The graphical rules are established in the overall expectations for rates of change. This leads students directly into curve sketching and applying those rules to solve real world problems. Without first having the built a clear understanding of the rules and seeing the connections between the different representations of a function and its derivative students may stubble on the application process. Where these skills are required in order to solve the problems …show more content…
This unit focuses on lines, planes, and vectors. I have placed this at the very end because I feel that students need to gain an understanding of vectors before they move on to lines and planes in two and three space. Students who have taken physics will be familiar with vectors and I feel would be more prepared to move on to the lines and planes portion of the expectations before those who have not taken any physics course. Even though there many be students who are familiar with vectors I still feel that it is important to start with the basic understanding of vectors and move on from there. This allows everyone to be on the same page and progress through the course
In Unit 1, many topics and concepts about motion were covered. We started out with the basic ideas of motion into much harder ideas. Before that though, we learned how to read graphs to determine their mathematical expression and the keywords needed to understand motion. Such words includes position, velocity, acceleration, displacement, speed, instantaneous velocity, etc. Building off of that idea, we went on learning how to draw and describe acceleration arrows, motion maps, x, and v, and graphs based on the given scenario. Furthermore, we also learned how to calculate position and slope. We know that to calculate the position, the equation is position= (velocity) (time) + initial position and that the slope is the change in position over
It is being used in page 22, “Rate, Graph, Slopes, and Equations” Quadratic rate of change comes from the parabola in the graph or the table. We would have to find the rate of change on each point because it won't be constant. y=ax^2+bx+c is the quadratic equation that we can find with the quadratic rate of changes. It’s being used in page 32, “To the Rescue.” Instantaneous rate of change is at a particular instant time at a point of the graph. The derivative is a way to look at by the meaning of instantaneous equal to the instantaneous rate of change. It would help you measure the instant time rather than the time on the table. It’s being used in page 34, “The Instant of Impact.” The derivative approximation is the slope of the line that is tangent to the curve at (a,b). It is also the instantaneous rate at which the y-value of function is changing as the x-value increases through
This unit specifically teaches me the important of flowcharts or pseudo code are very similar to build a conceptual model of how a program will work but structurally deferent. It grate and wonderful for me before I get in to the complexity of the programming
concepts that you may have learned in an earlier course and give you an overview of what you will
This unit is based upon the understanding of linear equations in algebra, a unit that is very rigorous. In this unit a student will learn how to create, solve and graph linear functions. Word problems will be used as a tool for students to learn how to create equations between quantities. While exploring this unit, students will also
Standard: A1.4. Linear functions, equations, and inequalities (Algebra) Students understand that linear functions can be used to model situations involving a constant rate of change. They build on the work done in middle school to solve sets of linear equations and inequalities in two variables, learning to interpret the intersection of the lines as the solution. While the focus is on solving equations, students also learn graphical and numerical methods for approximating solutions to equations. They use linear functions to analyze relationships, represent and model problems, and answer questions. These algebraic skills are applied in other Core Content areas across high school courses.
Target team-members have one goal; provide their customer with the best shopping experience. In return, Target offers diversity, inclusion, a fun environment, growth and development to their greatest asset. However, an increasing number of team-member disagree and feel unvalued. Hourly employees desire higher wages, a minimum of $13.00 per hour; competitive bonuses for management comparable to Wal-Mart; minimum of 40 hours for full time and 20 hours for part-time per week; insurance after 60 days of employment and the ability to enjoy their breaks and meals off-site. Currently, hourly team-member make under $12.25 per hour, weekly schedules are inconsistent, insurance starts after 1000 hours, meals and breaks must be taken in the break room. It is against company policy for employees to leave the premise during scheduled work periods. Target team-members are covered under the National Labor Relations Act and have the legal right to form a union in their workplace. Union representation would negotiate and protect their wages, benefits and working conditions by a legal contract. Also, the union will defend team-member disciplined unfairly; ensure promotions are granted based on performance and not favoritism; and protect shifts, vacations and layoffs. The

Model with Mathematics. In chapter 12.2 and 12.3 there is only one mention of modeling the mathematics for each section. Example 3 in both section 12.2 and 12.3 has the student make a graph and table. However it is not the focus of the example nor is much emphasis placed on this in the teacher edition resources. In the word problems there are one or two problems that have the students graph the equations but again as a secondary project to the finding the answer. Given there are examples in the text and a practice problem, this practice is slightly above minimal but not moderately
Choose a change model. Discuss whether the change agent in your setting is using appropriate strategies to effect change. Discuss any resistance to the change that you see and what the change agent is doing (or can do) to decrease it.
When organizing my assets, I decided the hierarchy that was most important to users from less important. For example, students should be aware of expectations weekly through the Announcements learning assets which learners are notified of these items periodically. The items usually state to read a chapter or two, complete a discussion board, then maybe an assignment and or quiz to end the week. This sets a normal tone for the course and allows users to expect to read and discuss weekly topics.

List any two topics/concepts from the course material/textbook in which you could benefit from better understanding.
I was never one someone would consider responsible or organized. Missed deadlines were not a rare occurrence for me, and I would easily lose things. Ever since I started working, I had to figure out a way to balance everything. Having two jobs was not easy, but it forced me to become skilled in being organized. The moment I started slacking in school, because of my busy work schedule, I knew I would have to quit. It was not a fast skill to develop, so I tried my best to do it in small steps. So from one day to another I started implementing small goals to change bad habits that I had built up over time. Instead of talking with my friends at lunch, I made it a goal to head over to the library and finish whatever work I needed to do. In the grand
