To finish semester one in January of 2013, a song mashup was created for the Grade 11 U-level Functions course (MCR3U), based on the Ontario Curriculum. It was put together in FinalCut Express for the Mac. Here's the whole story:
The recorded version can be found on YouTube here (unfortunately blocked in some countries, YouTube cracking down more since 2013):
The explanation of how it was put together can be found on Blogger here:

The song excerpts came from the following full length versions:
1) Polynomials
3) Vertex
4) Exponential
5) Cosine It
6) The Sine
Enjoy! Feel free to comment in any of those places, or leave Feedback on the page to the left.
