APPLYING STEM EDUCATION IN TEACHING REGISTERS OF REPRESENTATION OF THE FIRST-DEGREE FUNCTION
Abstract
STEM education is one of the approaches recommended for the new curriculum after 2018 in Vietnam. This article utilizes this approach to construct a teaching situation which allow students to explore and convert among various registers of representation of the first-degree function. The situation was experimented with 9th graders, and the results demonstrated that these students were able to connect mathematic and physics knowledge to create a dynamometer.
