This is the first power point I have created for my class. Because I plan on teaching a middle school or high school math class, the topic of the slideshow is how to find the equation of a straight line. The slideshow covers how to find the slope and y-intercept using graphs, and the algebra supporting the y-intercept form and point slope form. Hopefully the information is helpful! media type="custom" key="5651877"

This is the second power point I have created for my class. It contains the same material as the first power point, but this power point has a recording of my voice. This power point is intended for students who have missed class. They can look at the same power point I showed in class, and they can also hear the side notes that I ended while teaching the class. Hopefully this helps my students transition into the new curriculum easier.

This is a Podcast that I have made and would be part of a segment called "The Future of Michigan Politics." The topics are the expectations of the new governor of Michigan. The hope is that there will ultimately be more funding for schools and more attention will be paid to our educational system. This Podcast features music from Internet Archive (http://www.archive.org/details/haning_by_a_moment) and quotes and information from the website DBusiness (http://www.dbusiness.com/DBusiness/March-April-2010/Michigan-school-districts-are-in-survival-mode-Fighting-to-keep-doors-open/).

I created this movie to share the story of how my friends and I got together to recreate Michael Jackson's Thriller. This movie also shows my ability to create a movie like this to share a lesson with my class. I will also be able to teach them how to create a similar movie for projects of their own.

I created this assignment for my students to learn more about math than just the numbers.
