Bravo!!<BR/><BR/>As well, I appreciated your honest reflections in the podcast. <BR/><BR/>I was surprised to hear that not everyone felt this project deepened their understanding of the concept. Do you have a sense of what way the assignment could be altered to ensure that each of you enhanced your learning?<BR/><BR/>Best wishes,<BR/>LaniAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-781836819966406887.post-52633033020079027642008-12-19T19:11:00.000-06:002008-12-19T19:11:00.000-06:00Intrigued by the possibilities.

I have tried to get my Physics and Applied Math classes to do some video assignments, but I set them up as bonus type of things. So far, just a lot of talk and not much action. I am interested in seeing your kids' final results.<BR/><BR/> <BR/><BR/>One question though. I am wondering why you chose youtube over teachertube. Unfortunately youtube is blocked at school and I am imagining that other schools are in the same boat.

One on <A HREF="http://www.oame.on.ca/clips/index.html?cluster=1" REL="nofollow">Fractions</A> and one on <A HREF="http://www.oame.on.ca/clips/index.html?cluster=2" REL="nofollow">Periodic and Sine Functions</A>.<BR/><BR/>I think the title "Who Cares?" might be a tad negative - however, it is surprising how difficult it is to write an "elevator pitch" for some of the topics that are staples in the Math curriculum.<BR/><BR/>The ones that we tried certainly don't stick within the 30 second requirement.<BR/><BR/>If I was writing one about the derivative, the organizing concept would be "change".<BR/><BR/>If the class gets good at these, maybe they could help us with our next "Who Cares?" movie on Linear Growing Patterns.Ross Iseneggerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10837152655858983232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-781836819966406887.post-39533312357183288632008-12-15T05:31:00.000-06:002008-12-15T05:31:00.000-06:00I am looking forward to this video project.
