Instructional Ideas

• Pause the video to have pupils draw particular solutions before watching the answer

Classroom Considerations

• Video assumes learners already know how to generate slope fields using technology
• Individuals should understand the concepts of particular solution and equilibrium solution

• This video is hosted on YouTube

Pros

• Concise video gets to the heart of the concept

Cons

• Only covers one example
• Narrator does not explain concept well
