During the Activity

Students will take the Learning Check to demonstrate their understanding of the concepts. The teacher should collect the results via the TI-Navigator

After the Activity

The teacher will be able to gauge student strenghts and weaknesses on these concepts after students have submitted their Learning Check via te TI Navigator.
