ABSTRACT
In this lesson students will uses their knowledge of lines, and parabolas as well as their
knowledge of the scientific method to conduct an experiment to discover how to maximize the
amount of time it will take a paper helicopter to fall to the ground.
Key words: Social Cognitive Models, Constructivism, etc. . . .
Tasks
Teachers Role
(How will the teacher
facilitate and then monitor
student response to the task?)
The teacher will use poll now
and leading questions to guide
the discussion.
Students Role
(How will students be actively
engaged?)
Students will be answering
poll now questions and they
will be engaged in a class
discussion. The students will
be designing their experiment.
The students will be creating
paper helicopters, dropping
the helicopters and recoding
the drops using a slow motion
camera so they can play back
in order to get accurate data.
The students will be recoding
data, creating graphs and
finding the equations that
represent the lines their data
has created.
the discussion.
