  1. Design & Implementation ProjectAlgebra: Equations & Inequalities Lisa Freeman EDIT 6200 Fall Semester 2008

  2. Purpose • To provide 7th grade math students the opportunity to create a computer math preview game using existing PowerPoint game templates and primary and secondary math-related multimedia (hardcover and web-based) to preview integers, equations, order of operations, and inequalities.

  3. Instructional Goals & Objectives • SWBAT demonstrate a variety of text, graphic tools, and software to research, generate, and demonstrate a project related to math • SWBAT demonstrate inverse operations and properties of equality to generate and solve one- and two-step linear equations and inequalities • SWBAT identify a variable, demonstrate an equation, execute the equation, and identify the solution for a given problem.

  4. Rationale of Technology • The learners have a very low level of motivation when it comes to traditional school assignments. • Because of a culture of entertainment, students seem to get bored with any one style of delivery. • The learners’ motivation for using multimedia resources for academic purposes is great. • Multimedia learning opportunities coupled with collaborative groups fosters academic achievement.

  5. Instructional Models • Constructivism • Instruction is designed around a learning objective, resources are gathered, and students explore, build, and demonstrate their learning by creating a computer math game. • Collaborative Learning • Students work in groups to generate and solve math problems and to use those math problems to create a computer math game. • Discovery Learning • Students discover the math skills the teacher wants them to discover using a specific process, e.g. using various resources to construct math problems to be used in a computer math game.

  6. Materials Needed • Laptop or desktop computers (1 per student team) with LAN access • Teacher laptop or desktop computer with VGA connection to ceiling projector and with LAN access • Computer math game PowerPoint templates • “Jeopardy” • Baseball Challenge” • “The Happy Game” • “Math Computer Game Project” packet (1 per student) • Holt Mathematics Course 2 student textbooks • Holt Mathematics Course 2 Know-It Notebooks • “Computer Game Critique” forms (2 per student) • Pretest/Post-test (1 per student) • Scantrons (2 per student)

  7. IMPLEMENTATION TIMELINE

  8. Day 1 • Administer Pretest • Preview unit by demonstrating modification of a computer game template • Divide students into teams • Assign computers and Computer Math Game packets • Students preview, choose, and save a computer math game template • “The Happy Game” • “Jeopardy” • “Baseball Challenge” • Observe students • Grade pretest • Debrief and memorialize the day

  9. Day 2 • Review Day 1 and preview Day 2 • Review “Math Computer Game Project” packet • Students breakout in teams • Students begin creating questions/answers using hardcover and web-based resources • Observe students • Debrief and memorialize the day

  10. Day 3 • Review Day 2 and preview Day 3 • Students breakout in teams • Review instructions in “Math Computer Game Project” packet for modifying game templates • Model computer game template modification • Students modify computer game template by inserting their questions/problems and answers generated on Day 2 • Observe students • Debrief and memorialize the day

  11. Day 4 • Review Day 3 and preview Day 4 • Distribute and review “Computer Game Critique Forms” (2 per student) • Students breakout into teams • Students play computer math games of at least 2 other teams and complete critique forms • Observe students • Collect completed “Computer Game Critique” forms • Debrief and memorialize the day

  12. Day 5 • Part 1 • Review Day 4 and preview Day 5 • Distribute “Computer Game Critique” forms (2 per student) • Students breakout into teams • Students continue playing computer math games of at least 2 other teams and complete critique forms • Observe students • Collect completed “Computer Game Critique” forms • Part 2 • Administer Post-Test • Debrief to recap the entire project and learning experience • Grade Post-Test • Review completed “Computer Game Critique” forms
