Grade 8 Module 2: The Concept of Congruence
Conditional Remix & Share Permitted
CC BY-NC-SA
Rating
0.0 stars

In this module, students learn about translations, reflections, and rotations in the plane and, more importantly, how to use them to precisely define the concept of congruence. Throughout Topic A, on the definitions and properties of the basic rigid motions, students verify experimentally their basic properties and, when feasible, deepen their understanding of these properties using reasoning. All the lessons of Topic B demonstrate to students the ability to sequence various combinations of rigid motions while maintaining the basic properties of individual rigid motions. Students learn that congruence is just a sequence of basic rigid motions in Topic C, and Topic D begins the learning of Pythagorean Theorem.

Módulo 2 de grado 8: El concepto de congruencia

(Nota: Esta es una traducción de un recurso educativo abierto creado por el Departamento de Educación del Estado de Nueva York (NYSED) como parte del proyecto "EngageNY" en 2013. Aunque el recurso real fue traducido por personas, la siguiente descripción se tradujo del inglés original usando Google Translate para ayudar a los usuarios potenciales a decidir si se adapta a sus necesidades y puede contener errores gramaticales o lingüísticos. La descripción original en inglés también se proporciona a continuación.)

En este módulo, los estudiantes aprenden sobre traducciones, reflexiones y rotaciones en el avión y, lo que es más importante, cómo usarlas para definir con precisión el concepto de congruencia. A lo largo del tema A, sobre las definiciones y propiedades de los movimientos rígidos básicos, los estudiantes verifican experimentalmente sus propiedades básicas y, cuando son factibles, profundicen su comprensión de estas propiedades utilizando el razonamiento. Todas las lecciones del tema B demuestran a los estudiantes la capacidad de secuenciar varias combinaciones de movimientos rígidos mientras mantienen las propiedades básicas de los movimientos rígidos individuales. Los estudiantes aprenden que la congruencia es solo una secuencia de movimientos rígidos básicos en el Tema C, y el Tema D comienza el aprendizaje del Teorema Pitagórico.

0.0 stars

The goal of this task is to give students experience applying and reasoning about reflections of geometric figures using their growing understanding of the properties of rigid motions. In the case of reflecting a rectangle over a diagonal, the reflected image is still a rectangle and it shares two vertices with the original rectangle.

Renewable Energy Design: Wind Turbines
Read the Fine Print
Educational Use
Rating
0.0 stars

Students are introduced to renewable energy, including its relevance and importance to our current and future world. They learn the mechanics of how wind turbines convert wind energy into electrical energy and the concepts of lift and drag. Then they apply real-world technical tools and techniques to design their own aerodynamic wind turbines that efficiently harvest the most wind energy. Specifically, teams each design a wind turbine propeller attachment. They sketch rotor blade ideas, create CAD drawings (using Google SketchUp) of the best designs and make them come to life by fabricating them on a 3D printer. They attach, test and analyze different versions and/or configurations using a LEGO wind turbine, fan and an energy meter. At activity end, students discuss their results and the most successful designs, the aerodynamics characteristics affecting a wind turbine's ability to efficiently harvest wind energy, and ideas for improvement. The activity is suitable for a class/team competition. Example 3D rotor blade designs are provided.
