Lesson plan - Graph of quadratic function
General information
[list][*]Subject: Mathematics[br][/*][*]Class: IX B (profile, specialization natural sciences)[br][/*][*]Duration: 50 minutes[br][/*][*]ICTs: [i]PowerPoint presentations, computer, projector.[br][/i][i]ex. computer teacher projector, computers for students etc ...[/i][/*][/list]
Lesson theme
[i]The graph function of the second degree.[/i]
Specific objectives
[i][list][*]The recognition of the correspondence between the shape and position of the graph representation of the function of the second degree, coefficient values [b]a[/b] and discriminant[math]\Delta[/math];[/*][*]Graphical representation of a function of grade II[/*][*]Use of graphics to optimize reading and solving practical problems.[br][/*][/list][/i]
Operational objectives and evaluation
[b][i]-[/i][/b] to determine and discuss the intersections of a parabola with the axes depending on the sign of the discriminant[math]\Delta[/math]; [br]- discuss about graph shape and extreme value; [br]- write parabola vertex coordinates and establish minimum or maximum of a quadratic function.[br]
Teaching strategies
[b][i]Didactic methods and procedures[/i][/b] [br]-solving, discovery, modeling mathematical, exercise method. [br][br][i][b]Lesson times:[br][br][/b][/i][u] I) Introduction and organization of lesson (5 min.)[br][/u] The teacher presents the lesson theme and tell students that they will discover the properties of second degree function using computers and software GeoGebra. With projector shows the application "relative positions of a parabola - graph function Grade II" and how to use them.[br][br][u]II) Verification of prior learning (15 min.)[br][/u] Questions: - How are the intersection between graph and axes?[br][math]G_f\cap Ox=A\left(x_0,0\right)[/math] and [math]G_f\cap Oy=B\left(0,f\left(0\right)\right)[/math] [br]- How do we solve an equation of the second degree? What does discriminant [math]\Delta=b^2-4ac[/math] and how it will influence the intersection of the graph with x-axis? E.g,[math]f:\mathbb{R}\longrightarrow\mathbb{R},f\left(x\right)=x^2+x-6[/math][br]- How we deduced that the function of the second degree admits extreme value and how is it calculated? From the canonical form of function result that we have an extreme value (minimum if a <0, max if a> 0), equal to [math]-\frac{\Delta}{4a}[/math][br]- Examples: Write the canonical form and deduce the extreme value functions [math]f:\mathbb{R}\longrightarrow\mathbb{R}[/math][br][br]a) [math]f\left(x\right)=x^2-2x+7=...=\left(x-1\right)^2+6\ge6,\forall x\in\mathbb{R}[/math] [br][br]b) [math]f\left(x\right)=-x^2-4x+5=...=-\left(x+2\right)^2+9\le9,\forall x\in\mathbb{R}[/math][br][br][u]III) Learning of new knowledge (10 min.)[br][/u] Students study positions and graph shape using the interactive chart "The relative positions of a parabola -Second degree function graph". They will change the values of coefficient a and [math]\Delta[/math] observing and discussing the number of points of intersection with the horizontal axis and orientation parabola branches. They study all 6 possible combinations and organize the results, students write down the conclusions on notebooks next to graphs.[br][br][u]IV) The deepening of new knowledge (15 min.)[/u] [br]Create values table and draw on the notebooks graphs of the following functions[math]f:\mathbb{R}\longrightarrow\mathbb{R}[/math]. Discuss results by discriminant [math]\Delta[/math] and the dominant factor a: [br]a) [math]f\left(x\right)=x^2-3x+2[/math][br][br]b) [math]f\left(x\right)=4x^2+4x+1[/math][br][br]c) [math]f\left(x\right)=-x^2+x-1[/math][br][br][u]V) Review and ensure the transfer (5 min.)[br][/u] Students will write functions in input bar of GeoGebra Graph Calculator and compare them with those graphs above. They will communicate availability of this software adapted to mobile phones and will be invited to use personal phones. Then they will get home theme selection of exercises and problems from textbook.

Integrating new technologies
[list][*]GeoGebra will use graphics manipulation and detection of the extent of the intrinsic properties of second degree function and the way in which the coefficients affecting the graphical representation.[/*][*]material will be prepared for the event of absence of the Internet and download / stream.[br][/*][*]possibly students will study GeoGebra site in previous ICT lesson to accommodate with platform and will find that the software is available on mobile.[/*][/list]

Reflections after lesson
How you implement your lesson plan?[br][list][/list]Lesson was held in ICT lab, I entered Geogebra and I practiced with students graphs quadratic function, as I have stated in the lesson plan. [br][br]Integrate new technologies into lesson went well?[br][list][/list]Yes, students have benefited greatly and their level of understanding of graphics significantly increased. [br][br]Students reached the lesson objectives? [br]Although at first they needed a few minutes of adjustment, the site is easy to use and all were able to solve all the problems proposed, responding also to all questions during class. [br][br]What lesson have expressed their opinions about your students?[br][list][/list]Students were very happy to have used computers, they are very excited about the beginning of the idea itself. [br][br]What improvements could be made to the method used to make it work better? [br]The only difficulty that we encountered was the slow loading speed of the website.
