Vector Project Instructions

Here are the vector project instructions:


Vector Project - Math 40SA-1
Instructions:
Learning Objective: to correctly 'add' two
or more vectors using appropriate scales,
methods and strategies.

1. Select a 'scenario.' DESCRIBE your
scenario using a maximum of one paragraph
of text, using technically correct communication
skills. (ex. how you get to school, football passes or run plays, directions to/from)

2. SELECT a 'FROM' location. This location indicates where your scenario starts from (and goes to)

3. SELECT a 'to' location. This is where
the vectors eventually will end, and
completes the 'from/to' idea.

4. Using a minimum of three vectors
(including the resultant vector), PROVIDE
instructions on how to get from 'FROM' to
'TO'.
PARAGRAPH FORM
& CORRECTLY SCALED
VECTOR DIAGRAM
(with or without technology)
Euklid or ArcView or GoogleMaps

MACRO 'big scale', maps of geographical
areas
MICRO 'small scale', smaller than reality

5. Once your resultant is established,
INCLUDE three other, alternate routes, that will also get you from 'FROM' to 'TO'. (detours?) use the same paragraph form and scale diagrams to DESCRIBE appropriately these routes.

Your project will include (since it is a project...)

Title page
Table of Contents
Diagrams (various)
Description of Scenario
Descriptions of Routes
An introduction and a conclusion

Due Date: To be discussed in class


***There is no limitation on the format of the project....i.e. It does NOT have to be created on paper. Electronic versions of same are encouraged and even welcomed....
