Why I liked this GeoGebratube Worksheet |
Escherized Tessellation | A GeoGebra worksheet that allows the student to move one point on a master itteration of a tessellation resulting in the movement of all other itterations | I liked this worksheet because my group just finished investigating real world applications of vectors describing translations, and tessellations are an instance in which you can describe a translation with vectors from related points in a vector field. |
Solids and volumes of revolution (rotation about y_axis) | A GeoGebra worksheet that allows the student to change the function being rotated around the y-axis and visualize it in 3D. | I liked this worksheet because I remember having difficulty visualizing rotations around an axis, and this seems like it would make it much easier. |
Exterior Angles of Polygons | This GeoGebra worksheet allows the student to manipulate the angles of a polygon and then helps them envision the external angles. | I tend to be a very visual learner. This worksheet is attractive because it shows how one would extend the sides of the polygon in order to investigate it's exterior angles. |
Golf parabola | A worksheet that allows the student to test different values for initial velocity and shot angle of a golfball in order to get it as close as possible to the hole. | I like this because it shows that in kinematics that different values of a and velocity can achieve the same result. |
Incliend Plane Worksheet | A worksheet that allows the student to manipulate the forces acting on a box resting on an inclined plane. | I like this worksheet because I am also taking physics this semester and I think that this would have been helpful in setting up free-body diagrams for inclined plane problems, which I found particularly difficult to do. |
