52- Functions as Dances: Experience Variation and Relative Rate of Change

Co-Speaker:
Scott Steketee


 

How better to explore rate of change than as independent and dependent variables dancing together? We’ll vary x and y by doing both real and computer-based dances based on geometric transformations, dynagraphs, and Cartesian graphs of various functions. Bring a laptop or iPad with Sketchpad. Leave with student-ready geometry and algebra activities.
