Discovering Algebra: An Investigative Approach 2000 Edition
This curriculum is published by the same publishers as Key To... Series: Key Curriculum Press
When you work with real data, real-life situations, and real-world applications, you can realize the value and enjoyment of learning mathematics. In an innovative classroom that incorporates investigations, experiments, and cooperative learning, you will approach traditional and contemporary algebra topics from many different perspectives, exploring concepts informally and intuitively before seeing algebra in its abstract, symbolic representations. Using technology such as graphing calculators, computers and electronic data-collection devices, you'll be able to explore problems, ideas and concepts from different perspectives in a learning environment that encourages a spirit of discovery and generalization. The graphing calculator and other technology will give you the computational and visual power necessary to access difficult, interesting and worthwhile real-world problems and their solutions.
Discovering Algebra: An Investigative Approach develops: *Mathematical communication *An understanding of connections among concepts *Graphic, numeric and symbolic approaches *Competence with the mechanics of beginning algebra *Positive attitudes about studying algebra
