8. Andrew Zucker Project Inquiries
9. Video&Hands-On Activities ! Smart Graphs 10.
11. Lessons use visual hints and annotations on graphs 12. Scaffolding (hints) revealed only as necessary 13. Software runs directly in a modern web browser (using Javascript) 14. Teachers can assign particular activities to their students via a portal 15. Authorable (eventually) by non-programmers 16. Project is conducting a sizeable randomized experimental field trial 17. Software permits use of probes/sensors (within the web browser) 18. Experiments under way to automate smartness for graph analysis 19.
20. Interpret realtime data from probes (patterns, noise, etc.) 21. Describe direction and amount of motion (contextual stories) 22. Understand rate of change (velocity and acceleration) 23.
24. Like Google Docs, activities run in web browser itself
Like mobile apps, activities hide extraneous UI to keep the student focused on the task at hand 25. Activities can ask students to enter text or manipulate the graph, and they respond to the student with textual and graphical feedback
