Penny Breaking Skin Short: youtube.com/shorts/rOO99M5WT1k?feature=shared
Math The World is dedicated to bringing real world math problems into the classroom and answering the age old question “when will I ever use this?”
This video answers the question “ [insert specifics about this video]” We use [insert subject] to answer this question and show a step by step process of our problem solving / mathematical modeling approach. We also address additional questions like “[insert other questions addressed in the video].”
We use unique algebra context topics, geometry context topics, trigonometry context topics, and calculus context topics. We go beyond context problems and use a technique called mathematical modeling to find solutions to real world questions and real world problems. These videos are great for students who plan to enter technical fields that require real world problem solving, and can be a great resource for teachers looking for ways to bring real world contexts into their classroom.
