Student Collaboration through Mathematical Modeling and Reasoning

While math isn't usually the first content area that comes to mind when discussing group projects and student collaboration, McKinley High School's Quantitative Reasoning course provides a new approach to exploring mathematical concepts while giving opportunities for students to think critically and problem-solve through projects and group interactions. The situations that arise in these groups then direct the teacher's approach to instruction and skill building. While not a traditional environment for math instruction, the learning activities provide unique opportunities to think about math from a different perspective.
