This is the fifth course in a year-long sequence which covers standards and ideas in Algebra 1 intended for learners in middle school ready to begin Algebra 1 or high school learners who need additional support. These courses are taught in small-groups to provide individual instruction and social-learning opportunities aligned with a social constructionist or situated cognition view of learning. The curriculum is problem-based this means instead of lectures or videos students work together as a small group to solve problems to discover principles and strategies with teacher guidance, as necessary. Therefore, we will spend approximately 90% of each class period working on problems and discussing them as a group. The use of discussion and problem-solving leads to generalized mathematics or proofs and students will construct their own models or proofs of real-world scenarios in project based assignments. This process prepares students well who may seek advanced mathematics in high-school or beyond. In this unit, learners are introduced to exponential relationships. They will learn these relationships are characterized by a constant quotient over equal intervals, and compare them to linear relationships which are characterized by a constant difference over equal intervals. They encounter contexts with quantities that change exponentially. We will discuss these situations and present them with words, tables, and graphs. They will construct their own equations to model and solve problems. They learn that the output of an increasing exponential function is eventually greater than the output of an increasing linear function for the same input. We will view these new relationships as functions and employ the same notation and terminology. We will graph exponential functions and abstract this to generalizable ideas. We will also introduce several financial literacy ideas such as credit, loans, debt, savings, and interest as real world contexts. Week 1: - Readiness Check which allows instructor to identify areas of potential acceleration or needs for extra support for individual learners and the whole group. - observing growth patterns (exponential and linear) - comparing growth patterns (common differences vs common factors) - introduction to growth factor - representing exponential change - exponential growth and decay Week 2: - Diving deeper into exponential decay - equations of exponential change - analyzing graphs representing situations - negative exponents and exponential change Week 3: - Revisiting Average Rate of Change - Modeling Exponential Behavior - Reasoning about Exponential Functions on the Graph -Mid- Unit Assessment Week 4 - Reviewing Percent Change - Functions Involving Percent Change - Compounding Interest -Different Compounding Intervals - Math Modeling Project Week 5 -representing repeating percent increase - investments and interest -comparing exponential and linear growth - connecting to slope - math modeling -end of unit assessment
学習到達目標
HSF-IF.A
Understand the concept of a function and use function notation.
HSF-IF.A.1
Understand that a function from one set (called the domain) to another set (called the range) assigns to each element of the domain exactly one element of the range.
HSF-IF.A.2
Use function notation, evaluate functions for inputs in their domains, and interpret statements that use function notation in terms of a context.
HSF-IF.A.3
Recognize that sequences are functions, sometimes defined recursively, whose domain is a subset of the integers.
HSF-IF.B
Interpret functions that arise in applications in terms of the context.
HSF-IF.B.4
For a function that models a relationship between two quantities, interpret key features of graphs and tables in terms of the quantities, and sketch graphs showing key features given a verbal description of the relationship. Key features include: intercepts; intervals where the function is increasing, decreasing, positive, or negative; relative maximums and minimums; symmetries; end behavior; and periodicity.
HSF-IF.B.5
Relate the domain of a function to its graph and, where applicable, to the quantitative relationship it describes. For example, if the function gives the number of person-hours it takes to assemble engines in a factory, then the positive integers would be an appropriate domain for the function.
HSF-IF.C
Analyze functions using different representations.
HSF-IF.C.7
Graph functions expressed symbolically and show key features of the graph, by hand in simple cases and using technology for more complicated cases.
HSF-LE.B
Interpret expressions for functions in terms of the situation they model.
HSF-LE.B.5
Interpret the parameters in a linear or exponential function in terms of a context.
HSF-LE.A.1.b
Recognize situations in which one quantity changes at a constant rate per unit interval relative to another.
HSF-LE.A.1.c
Recognize situations in which a quantity grows or decays by a constant percent rate per unit interval relative to another.
HSF-LE.A.2
Construct linear and exponential functions, including arithmetic and geometric sequences, given a graph, a description of a relationship, or two input-output pairs (include reading these from a table).
HSF-LE.A.3
Observe using graphs and tables that a quantity increasing exponentially eventually exceeds a quantity increasing linearly, quadratically, or (more generally) as a polynomial function.
HSF-LE.A
Construct and compare linear, quadratic, and exponential models and solve problems.
HSF-LE.A.1
Distinguish between situations that can be modeled with linear functions and with exponential functions.
HSF-LE.A.1.a
Prove that linear functions grow by equal differences over equal intervals, and that exponential functions grow by equal factors over equal intervals.
HSF-BF.A.1.a
Determine an explicit expression, a recursive process, or steps for calculation from a context.
HSF-BF.A.1.b
Combine standard function types using arithmetic operations. For example, build a function that models the temperature of a cooling body by adding a constant function to a decaying exponential, and relate these functions to the model.
HSF-BF.A.1.c
Compose functions.

教師の専門知識と資格
Professional Experience:
I have been a math tutor for over 12 years and have worked with students from ages 5-25 in small group and academic settings including serving as a primary teacher for home educated learners. I have received training and tutoring certification/awards from nationally recognized organizations. I was a group supplemental instruction leader for math at the collegiate level for four years at ETSU including working with dual enrolled and accelerated learners. I have taught and tutored math up to a graduate level in algebra, geometry, probability, and quantitative reasoning.
Academic Experience:
Constructivism and Mathematics, Science, and Technology Education
This graduate level online course for educators used practical examples and empirical research to connect the educational philosophy of constructivism to best practices in STEM education and demonstrated online teaching strategies for this endeavor. It highlighted the power of solving problems through building and applying understandings rather than rote processes which influences the problem-centered curriculum This class also addressed common misconceptions or alternative schemas students develop for math and science prior to instruction and provided ideas for experiments and explorations to adjust these conceptions.
Math 1410 Numbers, Concepts, and Algebra for Math Teachers
This in-person semester long coursed prepared students to teach common core mathematics to students in grades kindergarten through eight including early access to algebra. It included practical teaching experience, ensuring the personal math conceptual fluency of each educator, and demonstrating expertise on the Praxis math exam for educators.
Math 1420: Logic, Problems, and Geometry for Math Teachers
This in-person semester long course prepared teacher candidates to teach common core mathematics to students in grades kindergarten through eighth including advanced ideas of logic, problem solving, and geometry using a constructivist lens.
