Multimedia+Project

__**Introduction**:__
This project will help the students identify how math is used in their everyday life. This project will help build an awareness toward everyday math and understand its importance in daily living. Students will also explain its use in application. The students will have the opportunity to work independently on a project using technology and then combine it with the rest of the class to make a final class project.

__**The Task:**__


 * Identify when you use mathematical concepts during an activity in your day. For example, sports, hobby, craft, chore, collection, etc.
 * Think about how math is used in that activity and what mathematical concepts are being used.
 * Put together a short video showing how you are using math and what mathematical concepts are being used.

__**The Process:**__

1. Write down a brief outline or a few sentences about how you use math during an activity in your day. 2. Submit your outline or sentences for approval. 3. Once approved, write a short paragraph for a script, that you will either memorize or recite during a short video clip. 4. Either by camera, computer, or videotape, have a friend or a member of your family, video you demonstrating how you use math in your day. Make sure you include the mathematic operation that is being used. 5. Save it to a flash drive or email it to me to be included with the rest of the class.
