Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using Alegbra Experiments I in conjunction with any algebra textbook, students construct mathematical models of real-world experiments. The seventeen experiments can be used to introduce, develop, and reinforce basic algebra concepts such as slope, intercept, and equation of a line; independent and dependent variables; the properties of a linear function; and the interconnections between the equation of a function and its graph. Algebra Experiments I reflects the basic philosophy of the NCTM standards for learning, teaching, and assessment. Students have an opportunity to work collaboratively, to interact, and to develop communication skills. Using the experiments, your students will: discover concrete meanings for basic algebra theory ; obtain meaningful practice in applying algebra skills ; experience success, as there are no predetermined correct answers ; understand better the relation of graphs and equations to the real world. Includes equipment lists, blackline master worksheets, suggestions for follow-up and conjectural questions, versatile extension activities, and evaluation and assessment guidelines. -- from back cover of Volume 1.
