Taking responsibility for your own education

The answers to the following questions:What does the next quiz cover?When is the next test?What’s covered on the next test?When are your office hours?Where is your office?

... are found in the syllabus.

Ask yourself “commentary questions”

As you solve a problem, ask questions of the form:What do I want to get?How do I get that to happen?

As soon as you finish a problem, ask yourself:What did I do here?What strategy should I learn? Is there a faster/slower wayto solve it?

The key reason for asking questions of the second kind is thatthey will end up helping you answer questions of the first kind inthe next section.

How to answer these “commentary questions”

When answering these questions, provide commentary infull sentences. As much as possible, use nouns (such asf (x) or “x to any power n”) as opposed to using pronouns(such as “it”).

Using the correct definitions (and keeping in mind the“parts of speech”) really helps!

My goal is to cover as much as possible, but there is no way toget to all of it:

Someone will prefer more examples and fewer concepts inclassSomeone else will prefer more concepts with fewerexamplesCompare the pace of this class to secondary trig.TWICE AS FAST

Learning mathematics

Math is not a spectator sport!

There simply isn’t enough time to cover everything in class.To do well, you must supplement class time withreading the book.You must try the exercises and be willing to get a littlestuck! Do not delude yourself into thinking that youhave mastered the material simply because you mostlyfollow my explanations in class!As you learn a new technique, you should look at problemsand start formulating in your own words when the newtechnique will/won’t work.Each day’s class will likely rely on the previous day’smaterial. If you’ve merely finished the WebWork whichwas recently due, you’re a week behind and class willnot be as useful to you.

Keep up to date on material

To be up to date, you must do exercises (textbook andWebWork) each day.If you want to be last minute, you’ll end up doing exerciseson WebWork each day (but you will be mentally about aweek behind the class)

Either way, you will be doing work for this class each day. If youhave to work on this class each day anyway, you might aswell be up-to-date!

Equation

An equation is a statement (using an equals sign) whichasserts that two expressions are equal.

In other words...An equation says that the expression on the left of an equalssign is actually the same number/quantity as the expressionwritten to the right of the equals sign.

Examples:x + 2 = 6

24 + 2x = x2 − 1

Task: Graph the function f (x) = |x + 2|.

First thoughtAhh! I have no idea what the graph looks like!

Second thoughtPick some random inputs. Write a table of input/output values.

The table you make with random inputs doesn’t completelyrepresent the function, but it’s representative data! Plot thepoints! Connect the dots!

Try it!
