(PDF) Developing Expert Voices v3.2

The AssignmentThink back on all the things you have learned so far this semester and create (not copy) four problems that are representative of what you have learned. Provide annotated solutions to the problems; they should be annotated well enough for an interested learner to understand and learn from you. Your problems should demonstrate the upper limit of your understanding of the concepts. (I expect more complex problems from a student with a sophisticated understanding than from a student with just a basic grasp of concepts.) You must also include a brief summary reflection (250 words max) on this process and also a comment on what you have learned so far.

Reflections ...

I wanted to make it fun. Calculus is gross, but it doesn't have to be. I wanted to make problems that people will enjoy reading, and interesting. As much as possible, I wanted each problem to have a story. I wanted each problem to be an individual. I also wanted the problems to be simple. I made up problems out of my comfort zone, but problems I know I could grasp and learn about.

Why did you choose the concepts you did to create your problem set?

... to tell stories

Reflections ...

In the beginning of this project, I did not know what problems I would come up with. I tried to make them as different from each other as possible. I did problems that I was not comfortable in solving during the year so that I could learn to be comfortable with them. I have a much better understanding now, because I pushed myself as hard as I could to achieve this goal. The problems provide an overview of my best mathematical understanding of what I learned, by the variety of concepts I came up with.

How do these problems provide an overview of your best mathematical understanding of what you have learned so far?

... to push myself

Reflections

Definitely. Throughout the course I kept telling myself that I've failed after every test, because I never got the mark that I wanted. I always told myself I'd do better next time, and now I can finally say I did. I learned to solve these problems on my own. I learned to work hard for something I wanted and I truly believe that I got there.

Did you learn anything from this assignment?

... Yes I can!

Reflections

In the beginning, I totally disagreed with wanting to do this. I thought it was pointless, but maybe it's because I didn't want to commit to it. However, now that I'm done, I can honestly say that I'm thankful I did it. I learned a lot about math, and I learned a lot about myself. Before this project, I looked forward to being the scribe, because I always felt that being scribe forced me to learn better, harder. Now I am twice amazed, because I got to make the problems on my own and I got to understand it in a different point of view. Anyway, I'm really glad I did it. I think with all the things that's going on, this was a real good experience. I spent this weekend focused on this project and I got yelled at by my parents because I slept late. Anyway, I think it was worth it. I'm happy with what I've done, and I hope you all enjoy it too =)

Was it educationally valuable to you? (Be honest with this. If you got nothing out of this assignment then say that, but be specific about what you didn't like and offer a suggestion to improve it in the future)
