Teaching StrategiesProjects

The course includes several major projects1. Cowculus and/or WebWork

a. Online homework and math practice. Provided in conjunction with Temple University andRochester University. See Homework Correlation at end of this document.

2. 16 Functionsa. Students create detailed and complete analysis of 16 basic functions. They must include ALL

information about roots, discontinuities, limits etc.3. Geometer's Sketchpad

a. A large collection of demonstrations and activities. A favorite is Dynagraphs which has beenmodified to match the 16 Functions activity.

4. Volume Projecta. Students create a volume model based on one of the volume integration techniques.

Accompanying paper work must show complete calculus solution, plus the actual value of theapproximation.

5. Daily Journal A collection of 1) assigned topics, 2) class impressions 3) independent research and 4)free writing. Students get daily practice in putting their mathematics ideas into words. Students will usedaily writing to explore calculus topics to develop an appreciation of calculus as a coherent body ofknowledge and as a human accomplishment.

6. Major Reviewa. Several "8-hour" review sessions are scheduled for struggling students. During these reviews a

complete review on basic topics is completed.7. Full Length practice exams

a. During the 3rd marking period, all students are required to take from 1-6 full length AP practiceexams. Exams are graded and returned during the sessions.

8. Mu Alpha Theta competitions and practicea. Students are encourage to participate in a myriad of mathematics competitions and practices.

Students can choose from as simple as ½ hour in class quizzes (Continental Math League) toweek-long major competitions.

b. Mu Alpha Theta, Florida Math League, Continental Math League , American Scholastic MathAssociation, AMC-8/10/12, AIME, USAMO

BC students, in many cases, are able to work independently. These students work through theCOWculus course as well as assignments from Larson. Progress is monitered through regularexaminations from the Larson Test Bank. In addition, these students spend a great deal of time workingthrough problems from mathematics competitions. Pacing for these students is self-directed.

Rule of Four __________

The "Rule of Four" is a fundamental theme in all my math classes. I have the four domains: symbolic, numeric,analytic, and verbal permanently written on my board. During all presentations and discussions, students areexpected to present their work in as many of the domains as they can. I find that most of my students have littleexperience in transferring thinking from one domain to the other. During most discussions and presentations Iwill pose the question in one format and then ask students to reinterpret in one of the other domains. Extensiveuse of Geometer's sketchpad allows me to create graphic situations. Students are asked to describe that theythink will happen under certain conditions. Three particularly good sketches are Dynagraphs, Color Bars andPolar Plots. In addition, each student has a notebook in which they keep a daily journal. Students use thejournal to discuss their impressions of math and lessons. The course teaches students how to communicatemathematics and explain solutions to problems both verbally and in written sentences.

AP ReviewsI generally am able to finish all new material several weeks before the AP Exam. I use this time for review andpractice. During this time, students work on the sample questions in the AP Calculus Course Description and onmultiple-choice and free-response questions from AP Released Exams as well as problems from the Barron'sreview book. Some of these are assigned for homework, while others are given as a quiz or test.

Topic OutlineI have included a sample of typical assignments and correlated them to the topics in the Course Outline. I usedthe following codes. There is a more detailed description of some assignments at the end of the outline.

Analysis of Graphs, Functions and Precalculus Review (summer or asneeded)

Students in BC should already be comfortable with these topics. Students work independently throughChapter 1 of the Barron's Calculus Book. Students are given a set of 16 functions to graph andcompletely describe. (See Graph Scoring guidelines at the end of this syllabus) At this time allfunctional transformations are discussed related to the graphs students are creating. GeometerSketchpad is use extensively to demonstrate the concepts of transformations. Students will be able towork with functions represented in a variety of ways: graphical, numerical, analytical

Details for Sample Exercises/Assessments from Topic Outline

Geometer Sketchpad Sketches1. Teacher created sketch which shows dynamically the interaction between the delta neighborhood and theepsilon neighborhood. Examples for the 16 basic graphs demonstrate all types of discontinuities.

2. Dynagraphs. Dynagraphs dynamically demonstrate the relation between domain and range with two parallelreal lines. Dynaquiz- is a version where students must identify the function from unlabelled Dynagraphs.

3. Color Bars. Using the Dynagraph program as a base, a second line is colored to match the image of eachpoint based on student selected function. Students pick transformation and try to describe that they think willhappen.

4. Integral Test: Students had trouble understanding diagram on page 577 of Larson. Teacher created sketch tolet students dynamically move the rectangles. Students see that the translated rectangles now fit under thecurve.

Calculator Exercises1. Epsilon/Delta Discovery: Students must adjust the window of the x-variable and the y-variable to help

understand the epsilon-delta definition of limit.

2. Local Linearity: Students will zoom in on graphs of functions selected from the Basic 16 functions. Inparticular, students will compare the graphs of 2y x and y x .

3. Graphing partial sums to see convergence: Sample problem Larson pg 568 Firgure 8.5 also problems fromsection 8.2
