Back to NCTM San Diego: Algebra For Everyone

This is the summary of a presentation given at the 74th Annual NCTM Meeting, 25-28 April 1996, San Diego, CA.

This workshop will emphasize hands-on activities. As the NCTM says, "Learning in mathematics is synonymous with doing." Developing a robust curriculum around doing math should make the subject available to everyone. We will incorporate writing, reporting, and the use of technology. Activities include gathering data, sketching scatterplots, linear, and non-linear graphs, and interpreting data.
