Curated OER
Types of Functions and Composition of Functions
Algebra II classes solve problems relating to piecewise functions, step functions, and decomposition/composition of functions. They utilize links to work with real world examples. Mr. Pleacher has added humor to the activity by including...
Curated OER
Composition Of Functions
Students investigate the concept of a function and practice using the notation and compute the values of composite functions. They use the examples provided in the lesson for guided practice with scaffolding provided by the teacher.
Curated OER
Functions / Domain
Students identify and define what a function is and how to identify them and relations. They also use functional notation to compute the values of composite functions. Finally, students determine the domain and range of a given function.
Curated OER
Composition of Functions
Students solve composition of functions. In this algebra lesson, students find the sum, difference and product of functions. They find the inverse of a function.
Curated OER
Functional Analysis
Young scholars perform functional analysis. In this pre-calculus lesson, students recognize the different elements of a function, graph a function and analyze it. They synthesize composites of other basic functions.

#3 Differential Calculus
Students create models of the Mean Value Theorem. In this Mean Value lesson, students use their knowledge of derivatives and exponential functions to explore the Mean Value Theorem. They illustrate the meaning of the throrem,...

Computer Graphing Calculator Explorations
Students explore the graphing calculator feature on the Macintosh computer to explore some "parent" functions and their translations, combinations, and composites.
