Lead Speaker:
Jeffrey J. Steckroth
Many procedures for factoring trinomials like 6x^2 + 5x – 4 exist, but most make little or no sense. Using a unique transformational approach to graphing, the presenter of this session will show why methods like Slip and Slide and AC work, while also strengthening the important connections among algebraic, graphical, and numerical representations of quadratic functions.
Presentation Format: 9-12 Session
