MATH 7523 Project – Part One Replacement

For this part of the project, you will create a statistics activity that utilizes Fathom and is appropriate for use in your classroom. (This portion of your project is worth 25 points.)

Keep the following in mind:

• First, you must select/create a statistics activity that is appropriate for your grade level. The activity may be one that
• You already use in your class;
• You find in a journal or book;
• Is available on-line, or;
• Is one that you make up.

If you do not make up the activity yourself, be sure to cite your source. Note:

You may NOT download an activity from the Fathom website.

• After you have selected/created the activity, you will rewrite it so that it utilizes Fathom. As you do this, be sure to exploit the dynamic nature of Fathom so that you are creating a conceptually-based activity that allows students to engage in higher-order thinking.
• Identify the objectives of your activity as well as the QCC’s and the NCTM Standards that it addresses.
• When you finish your activity, it should be in a form that is ready to be handed out to and used by students in a classroom. That is, it should be written with step-by-step directions using Fathom. It should also include questions to which students respond. Consider the activities from our class as examples.
