1 Teacher Notes on Slope Intercept Technology Sequence Compiled and written by Leanna Deters for CSE 670 Math at Western Oregon University March 7, 2013 Section 1 This teaching sequence is designed for use in an 8th grade math class. The objectives of this lesson are to give students an intuitive understanding of how slope intercept affects the graph of a line, how rate of change in real world problems is related to slope in the linear formula, and to be able to compare rates of change by graphing the lines that correlate and interpreting that graph for answers. Section 2 Please make sure to check how the technology materials are used before you begin the lesson sequence. You need to have at least one device that will run the apps mentioned that can be projected onto the classroom screen. If your school allows for student use of their own devices, make sure you allow time and support for students to download apps on their own devices.
