As you can tell I'm more interested in teacher reaction to the reflections following the problem. It's important for teachers to have a resource of problems like yours or mine but I see these as a springboard for generating dialog and developing deeper conceptual understanding. Mathematical habits of mind so to speak. <br /><br />Do you think maybe one student in a classroom would be curious about the general rotation problem or the general intersection problem? I believe it is our obligation to engender that kind of curiosity and NOT just with the gifted students.Dave Marainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13321770881353644307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8231784566931768362.post-14526581808004958632013-12-19T15:32:00.784-05:002013-12-19T15:32:00.784-05:00A related problem, no trig required:
