Mindmeister - Math Lesson on Population and Exponential Graphs

Looked through the Internet to find a possible equation to explain population growth and designed a lesson that required the girls to look at world population figures over the decades and make predictions on population growth. Fundamentally, I wanted to girls to realize the function that best decribed the growth is an exponential one.

The lesson went quite smoothly and Wan was at one corner filming my every move but the important visitors had not turned up. I was starting to worry they would not get to see the girls in action.

Just as I got them to work on Mindmeister to think about the consequences of population growth and how the data and information help policy makers make important decisions, DSP came in with a throng of other officials. My mind went blank but apparently the girls did not. They actively discussed and penned down their thoughts into the mindmap and here's their work:

BK said the lesson went well. I think I could have done better and begged him to not let me have to go through such an event again.
