Abstract
Students are immersed in a mathematically intensive, technological world. They engage daily with iPods, HDTVs, and smartphones--technological devices that rely on sophisticated but accessible mathematical ideas. Here, Silverman et al provide an overview of four lab-type activities that they have used successfully in high school mathematics classes to help motivate students to develop an interest in mathematics where their experiences intersect with the school curriculum. The activities were used as a real-world application after more-traditional instruction, but they can also be used to introduce the topics and to cultivate interest and increase motivation in prealgebra, algebra, and statistics courses.
