Sophie and Haley's D.E.V. Project

These are our videos: 














Reflections:


The reason why we chose the concepts we did was because we understood them the most. We did a graphing problem, a wheel problem, two verifying problems, and a problem where you had to find the exact values of three different values. Haley and I understood these types of problems the best, and whenever your trying to teach someone something, its best to understand the material to your fullest ability. These problems provide an overview of our best mathematical understanding thus far, because we chose a variety of problems from different units. Our first problem, which was a graphing problem, was from unit two, the graphing unit. Our second problem was a wheel problem from unit two. Our third and fifth problems were verifying problems from unit three, the identities unit. Lastly our fourth problem was from the first unit of measurement, and we did a problem where you had to find the exact values of three problems. Overall this project was a good review of what we’ve learned thus far. Therefore, I was reviewing and relearning problems and concepts that I’ve learned so far in the class. For this reason I feel like this project was educationally valuable, and made us dig deeper and expand on concepts that we’ve learned thus far in the class. -Sophie 




The reason why we chose to create our problems was because we wanted them to be on the more challenging side. We wanted something that was not too easy but challenging so that we would understand how to solve them. These problems cover all of the units that we learned. So, they provide an overview of the best mathematical understanding of what we learned this trimester in class. We wanted to make our project diverse, so we managed to cover some of the main material in each unit. This shows that we learned a lot over the units. I learned a lot from this assignment. I did not know how difficult it would be to actually come up with problems on our own. I thought that it would be really easy, however, it was actually quite a challenge. It was difficult coming up with hard problems because you actually have to solve for them. This project helped me understand how the units are all related. It also really helps you study for the exam because you are looking over all your materials. Overall, this project was very helpful and enjoyable. -Haley
