This site would be best for individual review or investigation but could also be incorporated for use in classrooms and into a homework assignment, individual learning, or group exploration in mathematics-related courses.
It is suitable for use in classrooms, for homework assignments, individual learning, or group exploration in mathematics-related courses.
Technical Requirements:
Any Browser
Identify Major Learning Goals:
To allow users to graph Differential equations in 1D and 2D
Students should understand differentiations and Integrations.
Target Student Population:
College General Ed, College Lower Division, College Upper Division
Prerequisite Knowledge or Skills:
Basic Calculus (integration and differentiation), linear algebra, and trigonometry.
Content Quality
Rating:
Strengths:
The Grapher provides a complete demonstration of the concept
The content is appropiate.
Concerns:
The Grapher does not include an adequate amount of material.
It should include some applications or some mention about the behavior of a physical, biological or economic system.
Potential Effectiveness as a Teaching Tool
Rating:
Strengths:
The Grapher is very efficient (could learn a lot in short time). It promotes conceptual understanding. This would be a helpful material for a quick refresher or for individual study. This would be a great resource to post in a course for students to review.
Concerns:
It would be helpful to provide the student learning outcomes to see the use of differential equations in real life.
The Grapher does not identify prerequisite knowledge.
Ease of Use for Both Students and Faculty
Rating:
Strengths:
The Grapher is visually appealing.
It is easy to use.
Concerns:
The Grapher is not of high design quality. No Mathematics PAD embedded.
It would help to include real life examples to make differential equation alive.
