Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around creating a lesson plan that incorporates technology, specifically using Excel or a TI calculator. The focus is on finding innovative ideas or resources suitable for a classroom setting, with an emphasis on potential applications in subjects like physics or statistics.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory, Homework-related

Main Points Raised

  • One participant seeks ideas for a technology-based lesson plan, mentioning previous unsuccessful searches on relevant educational websites.
  • Another participant inquires about the educational level and specific physics topics of interest to tailor suggestions appropriately.
  • A participant clarifies that the lesson is primarily aimed at middle school students and expresses interest in statistics, indicating uncertainty about the abundance of available resources.
  • One suggestion includes using Excel to determine accelerations and analyze statistical information.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

The discussion does not appear to reach a consensus, as participants express varying levels of uncertainty and seek clarification on the topic and educational level.

Contextual Notes

Participants have not defined specific parameters for the lesson plan, such as the exact subject matter or the depth of technology integration required.

I'm in need of making a lesson plan that utilizes technology. I can't find any good ideas. Checked out TI and NCTM's websites, to no avail. Anyone have any cool ideas or websites that would work? The lesson plan needs to use technology by means of Excel or a TI calculator.
 
Physics news on Phys.org
What level class are we talking about here? Elementary school, middle school, high school, college, graduate school? (these are for USA of course; if you're from somewhere else, substitute whatever is appropriate) What kind of physics do you want to do with this? motion, forces, collisions, thermodynamics, electricity & magnetism, or...? (This is for a physics class, right?)
 
mostly middle schoolers, and not necessarlity for physics, but it definitely can be. i was thinking about doing a lesson on statistics, but there is so much out there with it, i just do not know.
 
You can determine accelerations using Excel... statistical information using Excel again...
