Instructional Ideas
- Use as a review for writing linear equations given various pieces of information
- Assign pupils several problems given various pieces of information mixed together; have them write the equation in just point-slope form
Classroom Considerations
- Pupils should already have an understanding of writing equations of lines, as the lesson is designed as a review
- Requires Internet access to watch a YouTube video
- A continuation of a 29-part series about functions
- This video is hosted on YouTube
Pros
- The instructor breaks down the ways the information can be presented into three categories, allowing learners to see the relationships between all types
- Simplifies all problems to slope-intercept form
Cons
- None
