112- Building Math: Integrating Algebra and Engineering in the Classroom

Thursday, April 26, 2012: 10:30 AM-12:00 PM
124 (Convention Center)
Lead Speaker:
Peter Y. Wong

Participants learn about Building Math, a supplemental program for middle schools. Three books—Everest Trek, Stranded!, and Amazon—each offer engineering design challenges in which the math guides the design. Participants work through two activities: one is hands-on, and the other uses agent-based simulation.
