Take a great look at integration! Young scholars use an interactive to learn how to integrate a function. Learners input a function and view the integral as well as see a graphical representation.

Flipped classrooms and online tools killed the chalkboard! An awesome, hands-on technology workshop asks teachers across all content areas. to examine model lessons, become familiar with research, and explore tech tools they can...

Teachers turning into students? It's not Freaky Friday! It's a thoughtful workshop that teaches participants how to plan professional development for staff. Third in a 15-part series, the workshop provides a platform for the other...

Third graders use ruler and tapes to measure classroom objects. After discussing measurement tools, have students complete sentences stating what they would use to measure various objects. Later in the computer lab, they type their...

High schoolers explore an application of definite integrals. They graph three functions that go through the same three points. Learners use the symbolic capacity of their calculators to find the shortest path through the three points and...

Students investigate the idea of gender descrimination in the classroom. In this algebra lesson plan, students collect data in stereotyping, and gender bias in the classroom, school materials and activities. They graph and analyze their...

Learners tackle a wide range of intimidating topics in this comprehensive unit that spans piecewise functions, absolute value of functions, and inverse functions (among other topics). Investigative group work alternates with more...

Be integral to the learners in the classroom. Pupils use integrals, differentiation, and limits to solve the free-response questions from an AP® Calculus BC exam. Items cover topics such as area under a curve, particle motion, average...

Students redesign the classroom space. In this geometry instructional activity, students part take in making classroom rules and assigning value to the space in the classroom. They investigate measuring and problem solving in this...

Introducing exponential equations means learners need to take all the rules and tricks they learned for exponents and actually apply them. This presentation comes to the rescue by touching on changing bases in exponential...

A fabulous set of examples and problems that introduce basic trigonometry concepts, this packet is set apart by the care it takes to integrate both radians and degrees into the material. After defining radians, the author demonstrates...

Students use the disciplines of math and science to examine ecosystems. In groups, they calculate the amount of supplies they would need to live in the classroom for one day, a week and a year. Using this information, they apply it to...

Learners find the area of a region between two curves. They integrate functions such as sin(x) and cos(x) on a given interval and find the area bounded by the two functions. Pupils use their TI-89 to aid them in finding the bounded...

Analyze data using technology. Middle schoolers design data investigations, describe data, and draw their own conclusions. Then they select the best type of graph, graph and interpret the data, and look for patterns in trends. They also...

Young mathematicians represent recorded information in decimal form. In this decimals activity, learners play a "classroom friendly" basketball game in which pupils take 10 shots. Number of shots made out of 10 is recorded as a fraction...

Here is an impressive collection of lessons on sharks. In them, pupils undertake a serious study of sharks, their habitats, their social structure, and how humans adversely impact their existence. These lessons effectively integrate...
