Making “Sense” of Functions
Session Format
Workshop (90 minutes)
Target Audience
Secondary Education
Location
Workshop 2 (PARB 126)
Abstract for the conference program
Student comprehension of functions is more complete when they are presented with multiple representations. In this session, participants will examine functions outside of the traditional numerical, algebraic and graphical models. Using the TI-Innovator, numerical input will be transformed into realworld output that students can see and hear. Real-world input will then be used to create numerical and graphical output. Come hear the difference between linear and exponential functions.
