Curated OER
Iterating the Function over Real Numbers
Students use a spreadsheet to find sequences of numbers. In this algebra lesson plan, students find the values for c of a quadratic written in standard form. They relate the behavior of the graph to the values of the equation.
Curated OER
The Mandelbrot Set
Students explore the concept of Mandelbrot sets and Julia sets. For this Mandelbrot and Julia set lesson, students use a function integrator applet to investigate two-variable function iterations. Students use Julia set and Mandelbrot...
