Exponential Functions Project - Life After College Budget
Exponential Functions and Their Applications to Financial Situations
Life After College Budget Project
This project is one of the best things that I do. I have used it for several years and it has undergone several revisions. I use it primarily with my Pre-Calculus students but have used it with Algebra 2 with very good results. A co-worker, Dave Roberston also a TPT contributor, created a spreadsheet for making the grading easy to do- I have this available for download as well but could no

Credit Card Debt Project (Exponential Functions in the Real World)
Through this project, students will…- Apply exponential functions in the real world.- Become aware of the increasing credit card debt in the United States.- Learn to be careful consumers of credit to avoid unnecessary short falls, huge debt, and bad credit ratings.- Use the knowledge that they gather through research and assignments, to create a PowerPoint presentation about the responsible use of credit in our society. They will also create pamphlets that provide useful information about credit

Functions in the Real World Project
This is a wonderful project that I enjoy doing every year at the end of my Algebra 2 class. After having learned about many different types of functions, students get to research applications of functions in the real-world. Students will create a report on 3 different types of functions (one sample function included for students' reference), and will prepare a presentation on one of the functions to present to the class. This file contains everything you need to implement this project:- Detailed

Global Crisis Project (Exponential Functions)
The goal of the Global Crisis Project is to have students see and understand real applications for exponential functions. Students will do research on the population growth rate (globally or they may choose a specific location) and investigate the effect that a related global issue such as waste, food, disease, life"expectancy/mortality rate, poverty, inflation, national debt, etc. has on population. Students find accurate data points from reliable internet sources, and will use exponential reg

Functions Regressions Project: Using Math to Predict the Future
This project focuses on different kinds of functions and their applications in the real world. Students will “model with mathematics” using different approaches. In this project students will use modeling techniques to make future predictions using general statistics of a city or country and topic of their choice. Students look at different types of data; they analyze and interpret the data to decide which function best models the data. Students generate regressions of different types of functio
