Session Description

This workshop presents pedagogical approaches that will support teachers effectively unpack the concept of transformations and prepare meaningful activities. Through interactive demonstrations, using visual aids such as DESMOS, GeoGebra and technology CAS, we will explore transformations and the relationship between function notation and mapping equations. By navigating from concrete examples to general cases, and by using animations, the workshop showcases approaches to promote deep learning. This workshop is suitable for those teachers who would like to add new strategies into their repertoire and covers aspects related to level 10A of the Victorian Curriculum as well as Maths Methods Units 1-4 content. These activities will give students techniques they can rely on to successfully solve problems related to transformations in various contexts.

Key takeaways:
1. How to use technology to enhance student learning of transformations.
2. How to make the link between function notation and mapping equations.
3. How to use animation to understand general cases.
