ESP_AF Module 6-Key Features of Quadratic Functions<\/h2><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

This module uses three Desmos tasks which focus on exploration of the effect of parameters on quadratic functions in vertex form. Video clips of student work provide the context for teachers to use noticing of student thinking and examine how particular design choices align with the learning and performance goals for each task.<\/p>\n<\/div>
