Order of Operations
A WebQuest for Advanced Math Students
Task
You are going to determine the order of operations that is used to evaluate mathematical expressions.
Once you have done this, you will discover memory devices the United States uses to remember the
order of operations and compare them to those that other countries use. Then create your own
mnemonic and illustrate it using Microsoft Word. There will be several checks for understanding along
the way including a matching challenge and an online quiz. Finally, you will work with a partner to
analyze a problem that was done incorrectly and create a PowerPoint presentation that identifies the
error in the problem and demonstrates the correct way to evaluate the problem with a step-by-step
explanation.
