This worksheet is for use with the lesson Comparison of Univariate and Bivariate Data (http://www.shodor.org/interactivate/lessons/UnivariateBivariateData/).
Defines the notion of prisoners and escapees as they pertain to iterative functions. A prisoner ultimately changes to a constant while escapees iterate to infinity.
Enter a set of data points, then derive a function to fit those points. Manipulate the function on a coordinate plane using slider bars. Learn how each constant and coefficient affects the resulting graph.
Run the classic game of life, learning about probabilities, chaos and simulation. This activity allows the user to run a randomly generated world or test out various patterns. This is a simple activity which runs directly in the Interactivate window.
Investigate the Cartesian coordinate system through identifying the coordinates of a randomly generated point, or requesting that a particular point be plotted. General Coordinates Game is one of the Interactivate assessment explorers.
Run a simulation of how a fire spreads through a stand of trees, learning about probability and chaos. Track the results of multiple burns and use the data to draw conclusions.
