Exponents and Exponential Functions
Description
Most people have a basic understanding that exponential growth means rapid growth. But framing this concept in algebraic terms and applying it to concrete problems in real-world situations is a different story. Written and presented by internationally acclaimed math educator Dr. Monica Neagoy, this video builds on students' intuitive notions as it explores exponential notation and exponential function graphs with the help of TI-Nspire calculator features, such as sliders and graph transformations. Using exponential functions to model applications in the world of finance, the video also offers a problem involving Newton's law of cooling to help students further build a solid foundation for these fundamental algebraic concepts.
