3
Mr. Borodin wants to use a technology- based tool to teach students a life skill of costing the purchase of a car Concepts maximized Mathematical calculations minimized
4
Technology for knowledge construction Tools students can learn with Tools that interpret and organize information
5
Time & efficiency Accuracy Rapid calculations Entries can be added or deleted Automatic Production of information charts Visualization of impact of change instant feedback
6
Students will learn terms & concept of amortization Students will learn connection between concepts and loan length on monthly payments Students will learn why, where, and how to access spreadsheet software
7
Students will individually use the same Web- based spreadsheet to determine “best buy for their buck” given specs on 3 cars (authentic scenario) Students will research in pairs
8
Formative -individual checklist of spreadsheet skills and loan analysis terms (borrowing rate, principal, interest, beginning balance, monthly payment, & amortization) Formative -Pair work costing several scenarios Summative -Pair car costing assignment (cloze activity)
