MATH PROJECT 2011

Topics: Functions, Linear relations, Graphs

I post my video edits on now.

More like vlogs about my travels. Check it out!

Hello there! hope you like our song.. actually this is our math project, this song received 93 as our grade. :))

Math Song (Payphone Tune) – Lyrics

[Chorus]

I’m at a classroom trying to solve this

Math problem given by you

Where should I go now

Can you help me, I cannot take this anymore

[1st Verse]

Yeah, I, I know it’s hard to remember

The lessons that you have taught

It’s even harder to picture

That I can pass this exam

You said this subject is easy

But now what is going on

[Refrain]

And then that time that you said came

we are all nervous

[Pre-Chorus]

But now I’m trying to cope up

With your solutions

Even its hard,

To gain confidence to answer your problems

Still I am trying to understand

[Chorus]

I’m at a classroom trying to solve this

Math problem given by you

Where should I go now

Can you help me, I cannot take this anymore

[Bridge]

If mathematics problem did exist

I would still be solving you like this

I promise I will listen every time

I promise I’ll get higher grades tonight

[2nd Verse]

You’re still reviewing your lessons

You’re trying to memorize

I gave you my notes to borrow

But you just gave it away

You said you don’t need my help

You said you can handle it

[Repeat Refrain][Repeat Pre-Chorus]

[Repeat Chorus][Repeat Bridge]

Now I’m at a classroom

[Rap part]

Give me one whole sheet

I’ll be here solving all this problem while you’re looking around

Wondering what? the solutions will I use

I Made it from the first

But now when you see me I’m stunning

And all my answer starts with picking of a letter

Telling me the answer calculus? or whatever you call it

Switched the page to the other

So I’ll never forget it

Need your help on this test

Coz’ I don’t wanna fail it

Swish, what a shame could have got picked

Had a really long time but I missed the last part

So you talk about my answer at the back

Or what I could’ve wrote

But sad to say it’s over for

My answers are wrong, they are very wrong

Wish I have brain, got what you was thinking for

Now my score? I don’t want

to know so you can go and take that little piece of test with you

[Repeat Chorus][Repeat Bridge]

[Coda]

I’m at a classroom, done answering that?!

You have probably heard people say they are just bad at math, or perhaps you yourself feel like you are not “a math person.” Not so, says Stanford mathematics education professor Jo Boaler, who shares the brain research showing that with the right teaching and messages, we can all be good at math. Not only that, our brains operate differently when we believe in ourselves. Boaler gives hope to the the mathematically fearful or challenged, shows a pathway to success, and brings into question the very basics of how our teachers approach what should be a rewarding experience for all children and adults.

Jo Boaler is a professor of mathematics education at Stanford and the co-founder of YouCubed, which provides resources and ideas to inspire and excite students about mathematics. She is also the author of the first massive open online course on mathematics teaching and learning. Her book Experiencing School Mathematics won the Outstanding Book of the Year award for education in Britain. A recipient of a National Science Foundation “early career award”‘ she was recently named by BBC as one of the eight educators changing the face of education.

This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at
