Math 2008

For Math this year, I have decided to present 2 of my assignments which are:


My Special Number done during term 1 and

The Data, Anaylasis Assignment done during term 3.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Reflection 1:

Name: Math (LEAP)

Item: Special Number Assignment

Term completed: Term 1

Description:

My Special Number assignment was an assignment, where I had chosen a number from 10 -100 and explain why I had chosen this certain number. But I had to decribe this number and give 5 connection to this number, and also explain 5 mathematical things about this number as well. The number that I had chosen to do this assignment was 20.

Why I chose this piece of work?

I had chosen this piece of work because I had really enjoyed doing this assement and had found this an intersting assement done in math. I really had fun doing this assement and I also found it a nice and fun assement to start off the year.

What I learnt from this piece of work?

What I have learnt from this piece of work is that you can have both fun and math together at the same time. I also had learnt many intersting things about the number 20 just by finding some connection to this number and some mathematical. An example can be when I type the number 20 into google search, the resutls would be 9,940,000,000 which goes into 20, 497, 000,000 times.

Reflection 2:

Name: Math (LEAP)

Item: Data, Analaysis Assignment

Term completed: Term 3

Description:

This piece of assement was done during the middle of term 3, it is about anayalsing the data that was given from the class survery and the CAS survery done from the whole of Queensland. I had to anayalise some patterns that could have been seen in the survery and to be able to indetify which graph was suitable for the data to be shown with. I later had to write a conculstion which evalutes and explain about the data given from the 2 survery.

Why did I chose this piece of work?

I chose this piece of work because I was really happy with the results in the end of this assement. I was happy becuase I had recieved the results that I wanted after putting in all that hard work for this assement. But not only that, I also have learnt how to use excel better and to be able to turn given data into most graphs.

What I learnt from this?

What I had learnt from this assement was that after putting in all that hardwork into this assement I had achieved the results that I had really wanted. I also have improved my knowledge of using excel, by being able to know how to interpritate given data into graphs or the approiate measure of tendency. I also learnt what the measure of tendency was and the different types of graphs.
