Hello, Teacher!
As you are a teacher, there is no doubt that technology use in today’s classroom is very important for you to help students enhance and stimulate their learning. Today, mathematical contents are easily integrated with modifications due to the growth of technology. Moreover, you might realize that many universities and individuals offer various useful, helpful, and free websites. This WebQuest website might be one of them, and I hope that you will utilize this site for your students as needed.This webiste is created for Grade 7.
Standards: CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.7.G.A.2
Draw (freehand, with ruler and protractor, and with technology) geometric shapes with given conditions. Focus on constructing triangles from three measures of angles or sides, noticing when the conditions determine a unique triangle, more than one triangle, or no triangle. (https://www.corestandards.org/Math/Content/7/G/)
This project includes the following standards emphasized in mathematics integrated with technology.
NCTM Position
It is essential that teachers and students have regular access to technologies that support and advance mathematical sense making, reasoning, problem solving, and communication. Effective teachers optimize the potential of technology to develop students’ understanding, stimulate their interest, and increase their proficiency in mathematics. When teachers use technology strategically, they can provide greater access to mathematics for all students (https://www.nctm.org/Standards-and-Positions/Position-Statements/Strategic-Use-of-Technology-in-Teaching-and-Learning-Mathematics/)
NET Standard (National Educational Technology Standards)
Digital Age Learning Culture Educational Administrators create, promote, and sustain a dynamic, digital-age learning culture that provides a rigorous, relevant, and engaging education for all students (https://www.iste.org/docs/pdfs/20-14_iste_standards-a_pdf.pdf).
Connecticut Standards
The curriculum is aligned with the Connecticut Core Standards for Mathematics, both the Content Standards and the Standards for Mathematical Practice. It is based on the big ideas, conceptual understandings, real world applications, hands-on experiences gathering data, and appropriate uses of technology. (https://ctcorestandards.org/?page_id=1025)
