Exponential Functions Project - Life After College Budget
Exponential Functions and Their Applications to Financial Situations
Life After College Budget Project
This project is one of the best things that I do. I have used it for several years and it has undergone several revisions. I use it primarily with my Pre-Calculus students but have used it with Algebra 2 with very good results. A co-worker, Dave Roberston also a TPT contributor, created a spreadsheet for making the grading easy to do- I have this available for download as well but could no

Credit Card Debt Project (Exponential Functions in the Real World)
Through this project, students will…- Apply exponential functions in the real world.- Become aware of the increasing credit card debt in the United States.- Learn to be careful consumers of credit to avoid unnecessary short falls, huge debt, and bad credit ratings.- Use the knowledge that they gather through research and assignments, to create a PowerPoint presentation about the responsible use of credit in our society. They will also create pamphlets that provide useful information about credit

Functions in the Real World Project
This is a wonderful project that I enjoy doing every year at the end of my Algebra 2 class. After having learned about many different types of functions, students get to research applications of functions in the real-world. Students will create a report on 3 different types of functions (one sample function included for students' reference), and will prepare a presentation on one of the functions to present to the class. This file contains everything you need to implement this project:- Detailed

Cryptography - Matrix Decryption - Project & Practice
This is a project for students to complete on their own as an investigative project. Students will use different resources that have been found and linked, along with other resources of their finding to help them learning how to code and decode messages using matrix multiplication. There are 3 parts to the project:Learn on their own how to code and decode matricesPractice what they've learned using the assigned practice worksheetShow what they've learned by creating a 2x2 and 3x3 message and dec

Global Crisis Project (Exponential Functions)
The goal of the Global Crisis Project is to have students see and understand real applications for exponential functions. Students will do research on the population growth rate (globally or they may choose a specific location) and investigate the effect that a related global issue such as waste, food, disease, life"expectancy/mortality rate, poverty, inflation, national debt, etc. has on population. Students find accurate data points from reliable internet sources, and will use exponential reg

Calculus Career Project
Are you looking for an interesting and educational project to give to your Calculus students? You found one! So many times my students have asked what this higher level mathematics can do for them and how they can use it in the future. This project gives the kids an opportunity to not only see how math is used in careers but also what kind of schooling is required and what kind of salaries they can make using mathematics for a living! The project details and scoring rubric is attached!

Silence the Violence -- International Data Analysis - 21st Century Math Project
Silence the Violence intends to take a closer look at gun violence throughout the world. Is there a correlation between gun ownership and gun violence? While this is on the news, and people argue back and forth, unfortunately there are not a lot of statistics cited.I built this project through the use of correlations of authentic international data. I have included content for either middle school (plotting and calculating) or high school (calculating correlation with summations). The results ar

Performance Task - Pascal/Sierpinski Triangles
A great resource for International Baccalaureate mathematics! Although it can be used for non-IB classes, as well. I have used it for a midterm, but it can be used for an end-of-unit assessment, as well. This research project/performance task is designed to explore Pascal's triangle, its history, relationship with Sierpinski's triangle, and how it is used in the field of mathematics.

Functions Regressions Project: Using Math to Predict the Future
This project focuses on different kinds of functions and their applications in the real world. Students will “model with mathematics” using different approaches. In this project students will use modeling techniques to make future predictions using general statistics of a city or country and topic of their choice. Students look at different types of data; they analyze and interpret the data to decide which function best models the data. Students generate regressions of different types of functio
