combine
computer
game fun and serious
mathematics in a face-off
of the "Green Globs
Challenge." After learning
about coordinate graphs
and equations in math
class, students put their
knowledge to work by
playing the "Green Globs"
computer game using
classroom computers and
laptops. Highest score
wins." McAuliffe
