About the book
Each activity explores a scientific phenomenon, connecting it to precalculus concepts such as periodic, exponential, logarithmic, logistic, and parametric functions; modeling using functions ; asymptotic behavior; and transformations of functions. Students experience how scientists solve problems and use mathematical models to design experiments. They apply a variety of techniques to verify thier experimental results and develop conjectures. There are 15 activities: 10 use the Calculator Based Laboratory, CBL, with different probes; 5 require only basic tools, such as a stopwatch, metersticks, tape, and scissors.
