Mathematics from Still and Moving Images
Pierce, Robyn; Stacey, Kaye; Ball, Lynda
Australian Mathematics Teacher, v61 n3 p26-31 2005
Digital photos and digital movies offer an excellent way of bringing real world situations into the mathematics classroom. The technologies surveyed here are feasible for everyday classroom use and inexpensive. Examples are drawn from the teaching of Cartesian coordinates, linear functions, ratio and Pythagoras' theorem using still images, and quadratic functions using moving images. Resources and tips for creating suitable images for analysis are given. (Contains 6 figures.)
