Instructional Ideas
  • Instead of direct instruction the first day, have groups research the vocabulary terms and present them to the rest of the class
  • Groups can keep their graphs secret and have the class draw the graph based upon the key features given during the presentation
Classroom Considerations
  • Use functions that are familiar to the class to begin the lesson, or ones that are clearly not a specific type of a function
  • Based on the level of the course, the interval notation may need to be expressed as compound inequalities
Pros
