Level Up Your Precalculus Class

Level Up Your Precalculus Class

If you or your school are still deliberating whether to offer AP® Precalculus next year, this webinar will help! Paul Battaglia, author, consultant, and teacher, will guide participants through ways in which they can begin with a single question stem and then branch into various topics and/or representations. How can a question about the linear velocity of a Ferris wheel turn into a deeper task with multiple parts, covering multiple Precalculus topics? How can you take three basic polynomial functions and branch from the analytical to the numerical to the graphical, AND cover asymptotes, exponential functions, and logarithmic equations?

View this webinar to see how it’s done! This type of questioning is guaranteed to have your students thinking laterally, and THAT will level up any Precalculus class.

Fostering meaningful mathematics: Learning through a virtual experience!

Student engagement is essential for building deep math conceptual understanding and fluency. Opportunities to explore, practice, and apply concepts help guide students from surface-to deep-level learning. How can educators achieve this effectively through a virtual classroom model? Facilitators should strive to mitigate logistical challenges while maximizing collaboration and interaction from teacher to student, as well as student to student. Hear from a panel of educators about how this balance will make math content come alive for today’s learners.
