I designed this web-based lesson prototype to make proportional reasoning feel more visual, active, and intuitive for middle school students. The lesson focuses on ratio tables, helping students move from concrete patterns toward a more general understanding of how two quantities relate.
The goal was to create an experience that feels less like a digital worksheet and more like a guided interaction. Students are not just asked to calculate missing values. They are asked to notice what changes, what stays constant, and how the structure of the table can help them reason.
This project is grounded in my experience teaching 7th grade math. In the classroom, I have seen that students often struggle when the first step feels unclear or when a representation feels disconnected from meaning. This lesson is designed to lower that barrier by starting small, revealing structure gradually, and helping students build confidence through action.
The broader design idea is that good edtech should make thinking more visible. A strong interactive lesson should help students see the idea behind the procedure, not just complete the task. For me, this project sits at the intersection of teaching, interaction design, and product thinking.
