 Student Review (Not based on classroom experience)Reviewer: Millie, Nov 28 2005 07:57:54:267PM |
Review based on: Looking around and found it. |
Appropriate for: practice of skills and understandings |
What math does one need to know to use the resource? You need to know derivatives for sure. This is just extra practice on what you should already know. It's more like quizing you. |
What hardware expertise does one need to learn to use the resource? Not much at all. |
What extra things must be done to make it work? Nothing. |
How hard was it for you to learn? Easy |
Explanation: Just know that you move your mouse up and down to control your player (paddle) |
Ability to meet my goals: Effective |

| Teacher Review (Based on classroom experience) Reviewer: Craig, Jan 4 2005 09:26:49:423AM |
Classroom use in Courses and Topics: Calculus: Derivative as a Function |
Duration of classroom use: One Class |
What did students learn? Students got practice identifying derivatives quickly. |
What did students do with the resource? Use it for review, mainly. |
How hard was it for students to use? Easy |
Other classroom comments: I think this works best OUT of class... students doing it on their own, as review. |
Appropriate for: practice of skills and understandings |
Other Comments: Good review. |
What math does one need to know to use the resource? Derivatives of log, exponential, and all trig functions (in addition to basic laws) |
What hardware expertise does one need to learn to use the resource? None |
What extra things must be done to make it work? Nothing |
How hard was it for you to learn? Easy |
Explanation: If you "return" a correct derivative, you have to miss it on the rebound, or you'll be stuck in a loop. No score is lost if you miss it on the rebound. |
Ability to meet my goals: Effective |
