Linear Relationships and Functions – Part II
In this module you will further explore the nature of linear equations and functions. You will also analyze and experience learning activities which help you accomplish the following:
- Identify how tables are used to describe changes in values
- Reflect on activities that challenge your students to recognize linear patterns in data from everyday occurrences and situations
- Help your students analyze change in multiple situations and contexts
- Explore and analyze activities which help students translate data stories and graphs into linear equations
- Help students master translation of this data into linear equations.
- Help students recognize when a linear pattern or equation is and is not applicable to the data they find or experience
At the completion of this module, you will be able to:
- Explore the inter-connective properties of coordinate graphs, tables, and equations
- Discover how the expressions of approximate and direct relationships are related in data by using tables and graphs, linear expressions, polynomial and exponential relationships, and sequences.
- Interpret and predict future events or outcomes given a linear function.
