I am the first mathematics teacher that most of my students have ever had. Because of this, there are many gaps in their content knowledge. There is also a distaste that many of my students have for mathematics. The CBL2s will allow my students to connect probes to their calculators and explore how mathematics models the real world. This will allow them to see how the real world is based on laws and foundations of mathematics.
After being sent to online learning because of COVID-19 restrictions and then having a year with restrictions on their learning environment and activities because of COVID-19, my students are tired of the traditional classroom. They are ready to be interactive with mathematics and the real world. The CBL2s, their included probes, and the motion detectors will allow my students to break free from the classroom and discover mathematics in the real world. They will be allowed to collect data and then connect it to concepts we are discussing in class such as the parabolic nature of trajectory objects, the connection of liquids cooling and logarithms, or the sine waves formed by light particles.
