Review based on: I discovered this tool by searching the tools section. I would like to use this in the classrom as a way to show children how to look at an object from a 3-d perspective. |
Appropriate for: practice of skills and understandings, applications of a concept or technique, advanced investigations |
What math does one need to know to use the resource? not much |
What hardware expertise does one need to learn to use the resource? nothing |
How hard was it for you to learn? Ok |
Explanation: It takes thought to figure out the answers. It is not as simple as it looks. The computer allows one perspective therefore you have to use your imagination. |
Ability to meet my goals: Neutral |

Classroom use in Courses and Topics: Math 7: Logic and set theory Geometry Algebra |
Duration of classroom use: One Class |
What did students learn? There was some discussion on right/wrong as a group. When a shape is mirrored, both the right side and the left side can be turned to produce the image. This was only on 2 of the drawings. The discussion was intense! |
What did students do with the resource? They took turns to prove their answers. |
How hard was it for students to use? Very Easy |
Appropriate for: introduction to a concept, practice of skills and understandings |
Other Comments: I think it is very important that students have an opportunity to determine that more than one answer is correct and then formulate the conditions for those approaches. |
