Number Sense:
Evaluate:
Evaluate:
20 + .10 X 4
19.95 + .12 X 4
•Problem Solving:
•
AllCall charges $20 minimum
fee plus 10 cents per minute.
What is the monthly bill for 80
minutes of use?
The monthly charge for AllCall
cellular use can be modeled
by the function
Problem Solving:
F(x) = 19.95 + .12x
Determine the cost of 83
minutes of use.
If a family budget allocates
$42 to cellular use, how
many minutes can they use
each month?
Math – GRAPHING Calculator Use

Science example
NASA
http://www.sciencestandardslessons.org
The Space Foundation has developed a free,
comprehensive bank of science lessons for grades
pre-K through high school. The more than 200
lessons are divided into grade levels-preK-2, 3-5,
6-8, and 9-12- and all lessons specify the national
science standards met. Sample lessons for each
grade level are available online to preview. To
access the entire lesson bank, teachers must
register to establish a login and password.

– http://www.piscestt.com/pisces/ Link to forums
– Tappedin – teachers discussing various issues http://tappedin.org/tappedin/
– Definition – from http://www.marketingterms.com/dictionary/blog/
• A frequent, chronological publication of personal thoughts and Web links.
• People maintained blogs long before the term was coined, but the trend
gained momentum with the introduction of automated published systems,
most notably Blogger at blogger.com. Thousands of people use services such
as Blogger to simplify and accelerate the publishing process.
• Blogs are alternatively called web logs or weblogs. However, "blog" seems
less likely to cause confusion, as "web log" can also mean a server's log files.

OK to Link?

From http://www.benedict.com/Digital/Web/WebLinks.aspx info
on copyright:
Can you link to anyone you want? Do you have to get permission to
link to someone else's page? Can someone prevent you from linking
to their page? Can you prevent someone from linking to your page?
Is there such a thing as a doctrine of Implied Public Access on the
Web?
As it stands now, there appears to be a doctrine of implied public
access on the Web. The Web was created on the basis of being
able to attach hypertext links to any other location on the Web.
Consequently, by putting yourself on the Web, you have given
implied permission to others to link to your Web page, and
everyone else on the Web is deemed to have given you implied
permission to link to their Web pages.
