Breaking Down Classroom Walls: Making Math Relevant through Culminating Projects
Description
Math is not separated into neat, topic-specific categories outside of the classroom, so why do we assess that way? We will show a different approach that allows for creativity and demonstration of understanding through culminating projects. These require mathematically based decisions that take students on different paths to the same goal.
