Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My Students
I have extraordinary students with limited resources, but they are courageous and have a zealous spirit to achieve greatness in mathematics and beyond. All my students attend the Math, Science, and Technology magnet as they have shown an affinity for the content. My students have so much character and creativity to think outside of the box. This is shown by their desire to go deeper with mathematics by their creativity in assigned projects. We are located in the San Fernando Valley, just north of Los Angeles. All of my students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.
My Project
The new reality as a mathematician I must adopt is engaging my students with 21st technology. I am excited and nervous at the same time. I am asking for the virtual reality device to explore mathematical concepts that we discuss in class as a method to engage and stimulate connections with other topics.
VR MATH will help my students to see 3D geometry.
That is important in topics like geometry as well as calculus when finding the volume of cylinder using an integral. Students will be able to have a deeper understanding that reach mastery level and trigger thoughts educational pursuits. Furthermore in my algebra 2 class, I will like to use the Oculus quest 2 in when teaching about parabolas. Students will be able to see why the vertex is the vertex and how majority of sports balls create a parabolic shape when they play. I am thankful to receive one, and I am hoping to pair with another so two students can interact with each other for collaboration and calibration.
