Mira Costa College Math Trial Report

483 Words2 Pages

For the math trial my group and I decided to take on this project at Mira Costa College. At Mira Costa College, we specifically focused on an object that is seen quite often in schools and in Mira Costa too. The object is a water fountain, which is very common to see and have at any kind of school. The water fountain we focused on was the one located very close to our classroom near the restrooms and vending machines. We chose to do our Math Trail at this location because of timing and unexpected changes of the group. However, we were to work together and would all agree that under these circumstances we were able to accomplish the math trail successfully. Since our location was Mira Costa College as students we typically come across water fountains many times and concluded that it would present several mathematical features. With an agreement, we wanted to determine the velocity by developing questions such as what would be the speed of the water to touch the base and what would be the time for the water from the knob to hit the base of the water fountain. The measurements …show more content…

When we got all the measurements we were then needed to calculate it together that was done with some additional help from the Math Learning Center. I knew that the math Trail would have some difficulties like where can you find math but I was impressed from the outcome because we were able to work through and receive effective results. If I were informed to perform another math trail I would absolutely pick another location because I think the beach or park would offer the mathematical features in a different perspective. Overall, I was able to connect with this project by being notified that math is displayed everyday in my life. As a group we can all agree that you will always be able to use or find math on the expected and the

When I was in 6th grade there was a Christmas competition where I had to dress up as a certain Christmas character. I was one of the winners in the competition, I was in third place. During 7th grade, I undertook a chemistry project to design a Beryllium molecule. I made the atom using plastic balls as electrons, and the nucleus. This was a three-dimensional presentation of Beryllium.

On 8/18/2017 at 1950 hours, FTO Buckley #1537, Officer Kenyon #189, and I responded to 20th St. and Shotwell St. regarding a call of an (S1) unknown male suspect possibly kidnapping an (M1) unknown female. On arrival Officer Buckley activated his (BWC1) body worn camera which was later uploaded to evidence.com. On arrival, I observed no unknown male suspect and unknown female at the location. I located (RW1) Joseph Donohoe at the south east corner of 20th St. and Shotwell St. Donohoe said that he had observed a (U1) grey Toyota Corolla with partial licenses plate 6VX role up onto the sidewalk of 3363 20th St. The unknown male suspect got out of the corolla driver side door, approached the female who was walking along the sidewalk and grabbed her by the arm say, “Fuck you bitch!

“This math test would make or break my grade, and I really needed to study. I honestly could not focus in my room, so I went to the waterfront. It was a nice day with no one in sight so I sat down on a bench and did my math homework.” Escandon said that he got a B on his math test and he felt the reason he did so well was because of “how relaxed he was while studying”. There is nothing like going to the waterfront and spending the day soaking up the sun while getting an amazing education at the same

Abstract: Mathematics is a great subject that has developed greatly throughout the years. It has been present for a long time and throughout different societies. The American Indians are a group of people with an incredible culture full of amazing facts. Evidence of their work proofs their knowledge and understanding of different mathematical concepts that only makes us admire their culture even more. Such evidence allows us to explore how the American Indians counted and how they displayed mathematical understanding in their earthwork and art.

My daughter has been doing track for three years now (both indoor and outdoor) and has done every hurdle distance, 200 meter sprint, relays, and this year the triple jump. I think that she prefers the triple jump out of all of the events. Like you, I want to learn how to teach mathematics to all grades/ages. I love math- just not statistics! I am looking forward to working with you as a classmate.

As a determined and persistent math learner, every step in my life resulted from my love for math and, in reward, won me better opportunity to do math, and finally lead me to computational applied mathematics. As one of the fortunate who had experience in several institutes, including UC Berkeley, UCLA, and find great interest in research, I am convinced that doctoral study in Mathematics at UCLA will provide me with the training I need to conduct research at the highest possible level. From elementary school to high school, I enjoyed intensive trainings to prepare for nationally renowned competitions. While the medals I earned in mathematics competitions have opened up doors for me from middle to college, the knowledge and experiences gained from years of unremitting dedication to the craft of problem solving have proven to be the most rewarding result.

Math became the tool for me to become a member of this unknown society. I will never forget the first moment I was first applauded by the teacher for answering a math problem that no one else knew. My classmates stared at me in a shock, with an air of surprised appreciation. When my classmates started to ask me for help to solve math problems, I felt that I finally became a person that could help out others. The day one of my classmate told me I was the best person in math in our class, I eventually began to be confident about myself.

My research paradigm and methods The research will be carried out using the qualitative research design that allowed the researcher to obtain a deeper understanding of the research situation. In this case, the researcher studied the participants’ application of mathematical concepts in visual arts. A qualitative research is chosen in order to understand how far mathematical concepts engage in the student affective domain of learning in which the researcher can ask a variety of questions (will not be limited to particular questions).

For this experience, I was given the opportunity to receive knowledge of the outside world through scientific tools and instruments. I was given the opportunity to be a mentor judge at the Thomas Alva Edison Regional Science Fair. With grade level ranging from middle school to high school, I was given the opportunity to evaluate the thoroughness and skills of their presentations. I was able to conduct and ask questions about the students' work and give constructive suggestions on their methods, conclusions, hypothesis, displays, and presentation. Through the interviews, I gained the valuable opportunity to hear out every student will and background of their individual project.
