**Assignment 3**

"Lee Keller and Kim Cavanaugh continue their consumer episode by looking at researching cars online. This has consumer, math, and marketing implications but the real goal is to make our students smarter at making decisions. It doesn\'t hurt the rest of us to know this stuff, too. "Time:8:08

This vodcast is on TeacherTube.com, and is a great introduction to an online assignment we do in our Car Unit. It does a great job explaining 3 different car sites and how to navigate through each site. Once the kids watch this video, they are given information on a used vehicle that I am "interested" in buying, and what it is listed for in the paper. By using one of the 3 sites in this vodcast, the students need to give me the trade in value, private party value, and the suggested retail value of the car. In addition, they need to tell me if this is a good deal or not and why. Then they need to research the vehicle they currently drive, and tell me the trade in value, private party value, and the suggested retail value of their car.
