Activity/Assessment Ideas

• Math Classroom Activity
• In response to the When are we ever going to use
  this question
• A group of students (4) must photograph a minimum
  of 4 images that are closely related to
  mathematical concepts. (can send pictures to
  right from their camera phone)
• The group is responsible for explaining in words
  how each of the images are related to
  mathematical concepts. (This will help them tag
  their images)
• The teacher then collects the images based on
  common tags and uses them to create real-life
  application problems for relevance in the
  classroom (i.e. architecture, nature, business,
  etc.)
• The images can be displayed around the classroom
  to create an environment of ownership for the
  students
• Optional After class has compiled all of their
  photos, ask the students to
• A) determine how many different concepts relate
  to one photo
• B) determine how many different photos relate to
  one concept
