Ziplines And Stuntwork, Kelly W. Remijan
Ziplines And Stuntwork, Kelly W. Remijan
Teacher Resources
This activity involves an engineering activity which connects the work of stuntmen/stuntwomen working with ziplines to the concept of linear functions. Students create a physical model replicating a given situation and then model the zipline algebraically by writing the equation of the zipline.
Complex Powers Of I Satisfying The Continued Fraction Functional Equation Over The Gaussian Integers, Matthew Niemiro '20
Complex Powers Of I Satisfying The Continued Fraction Functional Equation Over The Gaussian Integers, Matthew Niemiro '20
Exemplary Student Work
We investigate and then state the conditions under which iz satisfies the simple continued fraction functional equation for real and then complex z over the Gaussian integers.

A Simple Introduction to Rates
Before beginning this section of handouts, students will be introduced to a variety of vocabulary words often associated with calculus. These words will be used in an intuitive sense only and will not have been formally defined. Vocabulary should include graphical terms such as continuous, increasing, decreasing, maximum and minimum points, concave up, concave down, and point of inflection. In addition, discussion of the concept of "rate of change" should begin. It should be mentioned that many quantities change – population, cost, and temperature, to name just a few. All that is specifically required at this point can be related …
