Instructional Ideas
  • Make the connection between translating general functions
Classroom Considerations
  • A better alignment might be HSF-IF.7.b
  • Requires signing up for a free account to access the CK-12 interactive
Pros
  • Allows the individual to view the correct answer if the initial response is incorrect
  • The additional reference makes the connections to translating a geometric figure
Cons
  • The interactive uses the square root function while the additional information is about trigonometric functions
