Instructional Ideas

  • Pause the video after each problem is introduced to allow learners to make the calculations; play the video to check answers
  • Flip the classroom by assigning the video as homework, allowing scholars to use class time to complete and ask questions

Classroom Considerations

  • Requires proficiency with solving simple equations
  • This is the eighth installment in a series of 15 lessons

Pros

  • Reinforces the concept of significant figures and scientific notation 
  • Uses color to emphasize important information

Cons

  • None
