Proposal

I want to apply Active learning via Desmos activities for the Precalculus class that I will teach in spring 2020. I will teach this class at room N550 which comes equipped with computers for each student, this will facilitate the implementation of Desmos activities.

I will prepare worksheets and activities, similar to the ones we were given throughout our meetings using my Desmos account and will give them to my student throughout the Spring 2020 semester.

At the end of the semester I will compare the performance of the students based on

Fall 2019 (Using traditional Teaching) versus Spring 2020 (Using Active Learning via Desmos activities).

I will post the results of this comparison on my website at https://openlab.bmcc.cuny.edu/

Under “Projects” for all of us to share and reflect on it.

On Friday December 6 I will present the following Desmos activity as an example.

This DESMOS activity helps students to understand how to find the Domain and Range of a function when the graph of the function is given.

Best,

Ivan Retamoso
