Learning Distance-Time Graphs with Robots
by Timothy Malan
Students code robots to match different distance time graphs. For each graph the teacher stamps their paper and they move on to the next more difficult one. Students will be able to replicate the movement depicted on a graph by calculating the slopes and separating some graphs into multiple linear equations.
