BACK IN THE CLASSROOMby Jackie J___
Back in the classroom, students typed their interviews. We then compiled our research and created a series of information Factoids. This was then displayed within a brochure. Students also used T1-83 Graphing Calculator to predict the Age Expectancy of the elderly through a mathematical concept called linear extrapolation or forecasting. This was transferred into a PowerPoint presentation, so that others may get an overview of the project. It is our hope that this project will produce useful information on Social Security, Medicare and other information that can lead to a healthy, happy retirement.
