This worksheet is for use with the Mandelbrot Set activity (http://www.shodor.org/interactivate/activities/TheMandelbrotSet/).
This worksheet is for use with the Venn Diagram Shape Sorter activity (http://www.shodor.org/interactivate/activities/ShapeSorter/).
Introduces students to modular (clock) arithmetic and its uses in real world problem-solving.
Students discover algorithms as they sort shapes into Venn diagrams. Then students compare the efficiency of their algorithms using box plots.
Estimator (Activity)
Practice estimation skills by determining the number of objects, the length of a line, or the area of a shape. Parameters: error tolerance of estimate. Estimator is one of the Interactivate assessment explorers.
Sets (Discussion)
Gives an introduction to sets and elements.
Divisibility (Discussion)
The question of fairness in a game of two dice leads to the concept of divisibility.
Mixtures (Activity)
Mixtures allows exploration of percents through two piles of colored and uncolored chips. The user must decide how many chips to color to create the desired percentage of colored chips compared to the total pile. Mixtures is one of the Interactivate assessment explorers.
Multi-Step Functions (Discussion)
Discusses the notion of composite functions as several "number machines" with the output of one machine becoming the input of another.
Cantor's Comb (Activity)
Learn about fractions between 0 and 1 by repeatedly deleting portions of a line segment, and also learn about properties of fractal objects. Parameter: fraction of the segment to be deleted each time.
