This video series is now part of Media4Math+. Click here to see a Preview of M4M+.

These DVDs answer the questions, "What is algebra?" “Why do I need to learn algebra?”

The answer is an impressive array of real-world algebra applications, including:

  • Algebra Applications: Measuring slope for a bike ride in the hills of Tuscany.
  • Algebra Applications: Measuring the impact of the earthquake in the Sichuan Province in 2008.
  • Algebra Applications: Using quadratics at car accident scenes to calculate speed.
  • Algebra Applications: Exploring the mortgage crisis of 2008.
  • Algebra Applications: Analyzing the path of a space ship to Mars.

Dynamic footage, 3D animations, and high production values make these DVDs stand out from other educational DVDs. The DVDs include graphing calculator applications using the Texas Instruments TI- Nspire calculator, but can easily be adapted for use with the TI-84.
Each of the DVDs includes a teacher’s guide and correlation to the NCTM standards for math instruction.
These DVDs cover the complete scope and sequence of an algebra curriculum and can be used for pre algebra, algebra 1, and algebra 2 courses, as well as post-secondary instruction.
Produced by the Emmy Award-winning team that produced Assignment Discovery for Discovery Channel.
