The newest installment in Forza\u2019s iconic racing franchise, Forza Horizon 5, has shattered XBOX records and even won our official seal of approval. As players both old and new clamor to snag themselves the game\u2019s fastest car, or quickly earn themselves an entire treasure trove full of credits, one fan has decided to go down a very different route with his Forza experience. This player is Reddit user Rj_TBNR\u2018s precalculus teacher, who has found a way to integrate his love for all things mathematical with his passion for Forza. Teacher uses Forza Horizon 5 in class Showing off a picture of their lecture on Reddit, this astonished pupil describes \u201cmy Precalculus teacher playing Forza 5 in [sic] our 4k HD touchscreen board at our school.\u201d Charging up one of the game\u2019s spectacular mountain ranges full speed ahead, this has to be one of the most interesting teaching methods we\u2019ve ever seen \u2013 especially in calculus! However, despite initially looking completely out of left field, there\u2019s some method behind this teacher\u2019s madness. Calculus is defined as the \u201cmathematical study of continuous change.\u201d Considering both the car\u2019s dynamics themselves, as well as the impact that the surrounding environment has upon them are in constant flux, the example makes perfect sense. Of course, the entire comments section is green with envy that their own classes aren\u2019t as interesting as this one. A comment from Xbox\u2019s official Reddit account notes that \u201cwe\u2019d pass this math class,\u201d subtly showing their approval. \u201cAt 120mph in a two-ton hunk of s**t, can the class please describe how long it will take me to get obliterated by a tree?\u201d jokes one fan, while another responds \u201c\u2018less than two minutes.&#8217;\u201d One baffled respondent also notes that \u201cmath was a lot different when I went to school.\u201d Whether you\u2019re an avid Forza fan or otherwise, you can\u2019t help but admire this teacher\u2019s creative teaching methods. It almost makes us want to go back to school!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This teacher using Forza Horizon 5 to teach math has gone viral Pixabay, MicrosoftWhile Forza Horizon 5 is a pretty flexible game, one teacher has decided to innovate his classroom practices by using it to explain precalculus.
