Comparing Rational Numbers
Number sense is foundational to everything you do that involves mathematics. While some people seem to be intuitively good with numbers, most people develop number sense over time as they grow in their understanding of numbers, number relationships, and mathematical processes. Estimation is an important aspect of number sense, an essential skill with unlimited applications to the real world as well as other mathematical procedures.
In this Discussion, you will use number sense and estimation strategies to solve two mathematical tasks.
To prepare for this Discussion:
• Reflect on the short IMAP video segments presented in this week’s Learning Resources.
o How well do the students featured in the videos demonstrate an ability to make sense of the various meanings and notations of the fractions and decimals presented to them?

HERE IS THE VIDEO LINK

o What strategies do they use to help them understand and compare the numbers? What misconceptions are revealed as they explain their mathematical thinking?
• Review the article “Estimation’s Role in Calculations With Fractions”as well as the classroom video program for this week. Consider how concrete models, such as fraction strips and number line drawings, can be used to support the development of rational number sense and increase student’s ability to compare rational number quantities.
• Then, read through the mathematical tasks below and select two to solve.
1. Which fraction is closest to 1?2? 3?8 or 4?7?
2. If 50% of a number is 10, what is 75% of the number?
3. Is 3.586 closer to 3 1?2 or 3 2?3?
4. Which number is the greatest? –1.4 or –1 1?4
• For each task selected, solve using estimation and number sense strategies, rather than relying on rote procedures.
• Finally, consider how students might approach solving the tasks.
o What kinds of misconceptions might arise?
o How might you address these misconceptio

Managing time

Order Instructions:
Managing Time

As delineated by A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK® Guide), the knowledge area of project time management includes an array of processes that interact with each other within their respective phase of the project life cycle, as well as with processes that occur within other knowledge areas. The bulk of a project’s time management work takes place as part of its planning process group, including defining and sequencing activities, estimating activity resources and durations, and developing the project schedule.

To prepare for this Discussion, read the case study “St. Dismas Assisted Living Facility Project Action Plan—3,” which is in your course text Project Management in Practice on pages 189–193.

Then, using either the trial edition of Microsoft Project 2010 that is included with the course text or OpenProj 1.4 (which is available as a free download at http://openproj.org/) create a Gantt chart for the construction phase of the project. Your Gantt chart should include all of the data that is detailed in the action plan for facility construction on page 192.

Note: If you need guidance in using either the Microsoft Project or OpenProj project management tools, please review the software-specific tutorials and other user resources that were provided for your reference as part of this week’s Optional Resources.

By Day 4, post a comprehensive response to the following:

Based on the project schedule that you have generated in the Gantt chart, when do you estimate that the project will be completed if construction starts in November, as the Board has requested? When do you estimate that the project will be completed if construction starts in March, as the construction project manager has recommended? In support of your estimation, post the file of your Gantt chart along with your Discussion response.

Based on your estimations for completion, do you think it will be possible for the construction team to meet the scheduling constraints set by the Board? Why or why not? Explain your recommendation in the context of PMBOK-defined time management principles and practices.

What is your recommendation for addressing the scheduling discrepancy between the time frame that the Board wants and what the construction team says it can deliver? When would the project be completed based on your recommendation and what does the construction team need to do to meet this milestone? Again, be sure to explain your recommendation in the context of PMBOK-defined time management principles and practices.

Curriculum Alignment Issues

Order Instructions:
Issues Facing Curriculum Alignment
For this assignment, you will build on the same program designed in Assignment 1.
Write a six to seven (6-7) page paper in which you:
I have put down some thoughts that I would like to see in the paper.

1. Discuss the philosophical basis that affects the proposed curriculum design.

Progressive philosophy
Concept based curriculum H. Lynn Erickson
Backward Design Wiggins and McTighe
21st century learners: hands on, communicators, collaborators, global learners, etc.
2. Examine the elements of norm-referenced and criterion-referenced testing, and determine how to apply these methods in the proposed curriculum design.
3. Recommend at least three (3) ways to integrate interdisciplinary units into the proposed curriculum. Provide a rationale and support your recommendations.

I am designing a 1st grade curriculum on habitats
In my 1st assignment, I stated “To design a curriculum it is prudent to come up with questions to help in its development. The three essential questions relating to habitats are; why are there different habitats? Why do animals need to survive? Lastly, what body parts help them to survive in their habitat? These three questions are effective in answering various concerns about different organisms living in different habitats.”
I am integrating interdisciplinary units into the proposed curriculum in the following ways: Language Arts, Social Studies, Art.
For the language arts piece, students will be conducting research on animal of their choice. They will write a report on the animal’s habitat, its predators and prey and its adaptation to its environment. They will state special body parts that help the animal survive and the animal’s diet. They must also tell why or why not the animal could live in another habitat.

For the social studies element of the curriculum, students will be assigned to teams to research a continent. They will create a powerpoint presentation to demonstrate their knowledge of habitats within a continent. How does the environment help plants and animals survive? What are at least 2 events happening on that continent that endanger plants and animals? What would they do to solve the problem?

For the art aspect of the curriculum, students will be given the choice to create habitat diorama or poster that demonstrates their knowledge of the needs of the plants and animals in the habitat.
4. Select at least four (4) approaches that you would use to assess outcomes within the proposed curriculum design. Analyze the importance of each of the selected approaches in facilitating the comprehension of concepts and facts within a contextually based learning environment. Provide a rationale to support your position.

Rubrics (students are responsible for their learning; they know what they must do to earn desirable grades; this will be used to grade projects, group work, written work, etc.)
Student opinion survey (students reflect on their learning)
Portfolios (snapshot on learning progress)
Teacher made tests (did students master the standards taught)
