This is my inquiry-based project, including: a grabber, introduction, lecture, and culminating activity.
Create a museum exhibit that will explore a specific historical time period or event through the display and analysis of historical artifacts and primary sources.
This is a project that generally follows the PBL framework that can be used to help students master the concept of qudratics in their study of intermediate algebra. Specifically, it was designed to help students master the concept of quadratic functions, equations, and inequalities, including the parts of both standard & vertex equations, as well as how to identify the domain & range of a quadratic function; how to apply quadratics as the square of binomials; how to make decisions about a specific quadratic problem or application relative to the significance of the vertex and roots; and how to transform a quadratic by manipulating its parent equation. Note that the project was designed and delivered per the North Carolina Math 2 curriculum and it can be customized to meet your own specific curriculum needs and resources.
