  • Google Chrome version 101.0.49
Slide Number 4

Pre-requisites


https://spoken-tutorial.org

To follow this tutorial,
  • Learners should be familiar with topics in basic mathematics.
  • Please use the link below to access the tutorials on PhET simulations.
Slide Number 5

Link for PhET simulation


https://phet.colorado.edu/en/simulations/number-line-operations

Please use the given link to download the PhET simulation.
Slide Number 6

PhET simulations

In this tutorial, we will use the Number Line: Operations PhET simulation.
Point to the simulation in the Downloads folder


Number Line: Operations simulation

I have already downloaded the simulation to my Downloads folder.
Double click on the number-line-operations_en.html file To open the simulation, double click on the number-line-operations_en.html file.


The file will open in your default browser.

Point to the simulation interface This is the interface of the Number Line: Operations simulation.
Point to each screen The interface has four screens:

Chips, Net Worth, Operations, and Generic

Click on Chips screen Click on the Chips screen.
Point to the number line The screen has a number line to represent the total amount of chips or coins.
Point to the Total box The total can also be viewed at the top of the screen in the Total box.
Point to the right panel next to the Positives bag We can put chips in the Positives bag from the panel on the right.


This will increase chips in the total amount.

Point to the left panel next to the Negatives bag


We can put chips in the Negatives bag from the panel on the left.


This will decrease chips in the total amount.

Point to the information checkboxes On the top left, we have the following checkboxes.


Operation Descriptions, Operation Labels, and Tick Marks


We can use these checkboxes to show and hide the details.

Point to the reset button The reset button takes us back to the starting point of the simulation.
Point to the right panel next to the Positives bag Let us put the +1 chip in the Positives bag.
Point to the number line The description tells us we have added a positive 1 to the total amount.


The mark on the number line moves one place to the right.

Point to the Total box The total amount is now 1.
Point to the left panel next to the Negatives bag Let us now put the -1 chip in the Negatives bag.
Point to the number line The description tells us we have added a negative 1.


The mark on the number line moves one place to the left.

Point to the Total box.



Add annotation while editing.

The total amount is now 0 as 1 + (-1) is 0.


This means -1 is the additive inverse of 1.


Additive inverse of a number x, is a number that results in 0 when added to x.

Point to the number line However, we know 1 - 1 is also equal to 0.


This means adding -1 to 1 has the same effect as subtracting 1 from 1.


Let us try this with other combinations of chips.

Point to right panel next to the Positives bag Let us put +2 in the Positives bag.
Point to the number line The mark on the line moves two places to the right.
Point to right panel next to the Positives bag Let us further put +4 in the Positives bag.
Point to the number line The mark on the line now moves four places to the right.
Point to the Total box The total is now 0 + 2 + 4 which is 6.
Point to the left panel next to the Negatives bag Let us put the -5 chip in the Negatives bag.
Point to the number line The description tells us we have added a negative 5.


The mark on the line moves five places to the left.

Point to the Total box Hence, the total is 6 + (-5) which is 1.


This is also equal to 6 - 5.


Observe that adding -5 to 6 has the same effect as subtracting 5 from 6.

Point to the Negatives bag Let us now remove the -1 chip from the Negatives bag.
Point to number line The description tells us we have removed a negative 1.


The mark on the line moves one place to the right.

Point to the Total box The total amount is now 1 - (-1) which is 2.


We already know 1 + 1 is also equal to 2.


This means subtracting -1 from 1 has the same effect as adding 1 to 1.

Click on the Net Worth screen Click on the Net Worth screen.
Point to the right panel next to the Positives bag In the right panel, we have different assets.


Assets are items that a person owns which have value.

Point to the left panel next to the Negatives bag


In the left panel, we have debts.


Debt is money that a person owes to someone.

Point to the Net Worth box Using the Net Worth box on the top, we can calculate the net worth.


It is all the assets and debts added together.

Slide number 7

Assets and Debts table

See the following table.
  • Pause the video here and perform these transactions using the Net Worth screen.
  • Calculate the net worth of a person.
    (Note: See table 1)
Point to the number line After performing these operations, the final net worth of a person is $100.
Click on the Operations screen Click on the Operations screen.
Point to the number line The screen has a number line to represent net worth.
Point to the Initial Net Worth box


Click and show the net values.

At the bottom, there is an Initial Net Worth box.


Using the up and down arrows we can set a starting point.

Point to the top right box.


Point to the up and down arrow buttons.


On the top right, there is an option to perform two transactions.


We can select an amount using the up and down arrows.


A positive amount is an asset and a negative amount is a debt.

Point to the plus button.


Point to the minus button.


Click the down arrow.



Scroll the right arrow to move to right slide.

We can add an asset or debt using the plus button.

We can remove an asset or debt using the minus button.


Let us click the down arrow to add it to the net worth.


We can scroll right using the right arrow to perform the second transaction.

Point to the Net Worth box


Point to Simplify button


Point to equals button

The Net Worth box next to it displays the net worth amount.


We can click the Simplify button to simplify negative signs in the expression.


We can click the equals button to evaluate the expression.

Point to the information checkboxes On the top left, we have the following checkboxes.


Operation Descriptions, Operation Labels, Point Labels and Tick Marks


We can use these checkboxes to show and hide the details.

Point to the eraser button The eraser button takes us back to the initial net worth.
Click the reset button Let us reset our screen.
Point to the Initial Net Worth box Let us set an initial net worth of $200.
Point to the top right box Now let us add debt of $300 to the net worth of $200.
Point to the Net Worth box The net worth is now 200 + (-300).
Click and hold the Simplify button Click and hold the Simplify button.


This expression is equal to 200 - 300.


We have already learned this concept.

Adding a negative number has the same effect as subtracting its additive inverse

Click and hold the equals button Click and hold the equals button.


The net worth is now -$100.

This means the person is in debt of $100.

Point to the top right box Let us add assets of $500.


Scroll right in the top right box to add the asset.

Point to the Net Worth box The net worth is now 200 + (-300) +500.
Click and hold the Simplify button Click and hold the Simplify button again.


This expression is equal to 200 - 300 + 500.

Click and hold the equals button Click and hold the equals button.


The net worth is now $400.

This means the person has assets of $400.

Click on Generic screen Click on the Generic screen.


The Generic screen has some new tools.

Point to the Scale From this list, we can select the scale of the number line.


-10 to 10 is chosen by default.

Point to the net worth representations We can choose between representing one or two numerical expressions.


For two expressions, two number lines will be displayed.


One is chosen by default.

Point to the information checkboxes On the top left, we have the following checkboxes.


Operation Labels, Point Labels and Tick Marks


We can use these check boxes to show and hide the details.

Point to the number line You can explore the Generic screen yourself.
With this, we have come to the end of this tutorial. Let us summarise.
