SMART Goals Tool

Welcome to Hacking EdTech for Equity! In this video we talk about using SMART Goals tool in school.

How Does It Compare?

Is Lebron better than Steph Curry? Are Fords faster than Chevys? Will IU beat Purdue next year? Find out by engaging and creating your own statistical analysis, using measures of center and spread! After all, statistics do not lie.

Mortgage, Credit and the Price You Pay: A Mortgage Simulation

Experience one of the most important equations of your life: the mortgage equation! Do you know the price you are paying for your level of credit? Crunch those numbers to find out!

Optimization Week

Welcome to Optimization Week where you will have to solve a real world problem and share with the world why your solution is better than all other possible solutions!

Scale It Up!

Scale up your students’ knowledge of dilation and scale factor by having them work through scale drawings!

Perspective

This lesson is designed to prove the difference between what we think we see and what actually exists in the physical world. Students will use a variety of methods and concepts such as foreground, middle ground, and background, spatial illusion, and atmospheric perspective.

Reebop Breeding: Modeling Inheritance and Phenotype Digitally

In this interactive lesson, students will learn about meiosis, fertilization, heredity rules, genotypes, phenotypes, etc. through building marshmallow dragons (or reebops). Through this lesson, they will be able to understand and explain genetic and physical diversity from generation to generation.

A Feast of Proofs: Justifying Triangle Congruence

This lesson will help your scholars deconstruct proof level thinking. By utilizing Delta Math, students can progress from the visual level of thinking about triangle congruence and transform themselves into writing proof like arguments.

Line Segments & Distance

In this lesson, students will learn how to calculate distances in real life situations by using the distance formula and the Pythagorean Theorem. The interactive Nearpod is included in the lesson.

Trigonometric Functions in Right Triangles: An Interactive Nearpod Lesson

This interactive Nearpod lesson will help you teach your students about trigonometric functions in right triangles. To calculate heights of real-life structures, or sides of triangles, they will make use of the Pythagorean Theorem, sine, cosine, tangent, cotangent, secant, and cosecant.
