Instructional Design

I designed this curriculum for students to create a personal goal-setting tool. The target learners are middle school athletes who use the GameChanger app to track their performance. This particular group of learners are baseball players, but the curriculum could easily be modified to work with any sport that utilizes GameChanger or another statistical tracking application.

Students learn mathematics by realizing a personal need and investigating the mathematics necessary to provide a desired solution. By making a personal connection, students develop a deeper understanding which increases retention and prompts curiosity for further learning.
