Week of 2/13/12 Following up our Projects_Peer Assessment_Ch5 Stuff

General
This week we will be completing some follow up activities related to our Art Project and Portfolio Task.  Specifically, we will look at someone else's feedback related to our project or providing feedback to them about their work.  While doing this, we will dig deeper into our own trig. graph knowledge, but more importantly, we will practice how we communicate our understanding of someone else's work.  In additions, we will incorporate someone else's feedback to improve our product.  Learning to communicate constructively and effectively is a very important skill to develop that will help you in all your classes and in life!  Also, reflecting about how your original ideas were communicated in your project should teach you a thing or two (or at the very least point out you did not follow directions!) about how to approach more open-ended projects.

Content Goal 
Be able to understand the difference between the Law of Sines (including the Ambiguous Case 5.3) and the Law of Cosines and apply those relationships to new situations (other sections of Chapter 5).
