There are few ideas in life that will be useful forever. Concepts that change the way people view the world, change the way people approach challenges. Nowhere do more of these brilliant notions exist than in the field of mathematics. Today you will explore one of these ideas for the purpose of understanding it’s vast impact not just within the field of mathematics, but also within your everyday life. You will become historians, engineers and fortune tellers, and in the end it will be clear that one little thought can have a lasting impact on the world as you know it.
In the following you will explore one of three concepts you know in math from three different angles. You will choose either the Pythagorean Theorem, The Quadratic Equation, or the number Pi and put together a presentation on where it came from/ the historical perspective, how its useful today/ the present perspective, and how it will continue to be useful/ the future perspective. Continue to the task page for details!

In groups of four you will construct a Power Point presentation to be given in front of the class on one of the three topics mentioned above. Your presentation will consist of :
•An introduction to your presentation telling us what it is on and what we can expect in your following slides.
•A main body that is broken down into four sections:1. Past, the history of your topic, who came up with it? When? What did
people think of it at the time? What has it been used for in the past? 2. Present, how is it applied today? Is it used in physics? Math?
Engineering? Where can you find an application of it in your life?3. Future, use what you have learned to speculate on how people will use
it in the future. Will it be the same as today? Will it become obsolete?4. Example, I want to see your topic in a worked example in a real world
application. Don’t just give me a2 + b2 = c2 , I want some thought into these.
• A conclusion summing up what you’ve told us, and what you learned from this project.

So you’re researching the past of the Pythagorean Theorem. As the historian of the group you will gather information on the history of the theorem. You should touch on Pythagoras, and his followers. Why was it so important back then? What was the inspiration for the theorem? How did he prove it? You could present information in a timeline, but anyway you can get the information across is fine. As you will find out the history of the Pythagorean theorem is a history riddled with mystery. You can use the following links to complete your research.

You may also conduct interviews with somebody you feel is knowledgeable on the subject. If you choose to do this you must present to me who you are planning to interview and why they are qualified along with a list of questions before conducting the interview.

It is easy to get frustrated with math when all you see are numbers and symbols on a page in your text book. It is my hope that when you complete this lesson that you will see how fun math can be! Or at least that what you are learning has some real world applications. Everything here has a fantastic history and future and if you so choose you can be a part of that future, and possibly change the way people think about math, the world, or the universe!

This lesson primarily involves 10th grade level mathematics, and technology skills, but also encourages public speaking and critical thinking. This is a moderately advanced lesson and could be used in higher grade levels as well.
Prior to this lesson students must have experience with web based research, PowerPoint, and at least an introduction to the mechanics of public speaking. Mathematics involved require knowledge of the Pythagorean Theorem, the Quadratic Equation, and Pi.

4. Example, students will present their topic in a worked example in a real world application.
• A conclusion summing up the presentation, and what was learned from this project.
•See the student process page for a step by step.
This lesson is intended to be comprehensive in nature accomplishing bits and pieces as the term progresses a minimum of three weeks assignment to presentation is recommended for completion. This lesson will require some outside of class work on the part of the students.
It is recommended that groups are selected by the instructor to ensure quality and cohesive work. Elaboration may be required on some of the critical thinking aspects of the project, and should be tailored to the instructors desired goals for the project.
It is recommended that computer lab time is set aside for this project at various stages of the term as the instructor sees fit.

1. Introduce the lesson: The student pages do a pretty good job with what is expected, but you may want to add some of your own thoughts or expectations here.
2. Explain the functionality of the model. The side bar links will help students navigate between main heading pages, but there are also many links on the pages themselves that they will need to follow.
3. Let them navigate their way through the task page where you may get some questions on expectations. This is primarily up to you to instruct them on what you want as the facilitator, you can also refer them to the Evaluation page, (link is in the sidebar,) for further details.
4. The next step will take them to the process page where you can assign them to groups on step 1or have them navigate further to get the feel of the project before letting them start. Step 2 of the process page allows student to choose one of the three topic options. You can assign a topic or let them choose. I will navigate you through the Pythagorean Theorem option, The other two are typical.
5. This link will lead them to step three of the process where they are instructed to divide up the work. I would leave this to them, but you may offer some guidance.
6. The research topics for them to choose are listed see next slide
