Math+TPCK

Math Lesson developed with TPCK framework.

**Post your lesson by October 12th to allow for discussion. In the syllabus it mentions Math/Science lesson but that is only a suggestion, please integrate in whatever way fits for you. DS**
Lesson 1 Penny Nutting - Math lessons Ernie Geddes
 * Also, since there are four of you lets split the group to make collaboration easier.**

--- Sounds great! Penny, what type of audience would you like to target for the Math Lesson? I was thinking 4th-6th graders, but absolutely open to other ideas. As for the concept/learning objective, any suggestions? EMG091209

OK!!!!!! Got to start thinking. Maybe tomorrow :) PN091609 Tomorrow has come and gone. :) Ernie, I added a link to Lesson 1 so we could work without crowding Lesson 2. __SKIP AND MICHAEL__ - I've also added a page for lesson 2. Hope you don't mind. 4-6 grade is certainly fine with me, but are there math concepts you also need to teach?...As in using spreadsheet's graphing or functions or certainly there are other needs for, I'm assuming the adult population? As far as an elementary concept, we could do something around **statistics**, (gathering data and graphing) or **geometry** (there are many web tools + I also want to someday explore the idea of using Google Sketch-up for teaching geometry), or **fractions** ( students sure need alternative sources than just the text book and visuals they have in the classroom for understanding the various concepts of common denominators, and combining fractions.) If you want we can approach one of these topics. Or I'd love to hear your ideas. PN 092709 --- Hello fellow classmates! The final lesson plan and example of the activity are posted below in PDF format. You can use the link above entitled "Lesson 1" to review the development of the plan. EMG101109

Lesson 2 Skip Davis Michael Campbell

MIke lets do a lesson using ohms law, I have allot of stuff for this and I know you have a use for it as well. Maybe calculate a power supply load or somthing.

Ohms Law Works for me as well I will email you some ideas.

Mike - here is the description I came up with Description – The purpose of this lesson is to facilitate student learning through the use of simulation software, and an online wiki. Using circuit simulation software students will assemble circuits from a schematic, prove ohms law, perform circuit test and measurement through the use of virtual test equipment and develop basic trouble shooting skills. Students will learn collaboratively through the use of a wiki. They will be assigned a small circuit analysis project and must come up with a solution using the wiki.

Skip i will post the content of what I have so far below let me know what you think. I will also type up our discussion from last night.

Mike - Here is a little blurb for credntials

Professional Credentials - For students who are in pursuit of a state electricians license this course meets the educational requirements for electrical theory.
