Summary
Your students have been hired to develop a flooring estimate for two rooms in the home of a new client, Mr. Barlage. They will collaborate to create a proposal that fits within Mr. Barlage’s budget. The students are grouped based on their specialties and not all group members work in the same “office”. In the math class they specialize in finding area and perimeter while in the technology class, students specialize in finding materials needed to complete the job. The two classes will work together using discussion boards or GoogleChat to complete the task. At the end of the class, the groups will present their proposals to the client.
