I want a credit card--or do I?
Young scholars pretend to borrow $1000.00 on a credit card. They pretend to make the minimum payments for a year. When they're done, they make a pie chart showing how much of their payments reduced their debt, and how much was interest.
Curated OER
Calculus
Young scholars make an inquiry with the aid of technology into the concept of functions. The emphasis of the lesson plan is on the interplay between the geometric and analytic information.
