Let's hope our new work doesn't have this effect on you.

Valentine's Day

Now that we've had the first test...

I have posted videos for each course as introductions to our new work. Math 1044 has two videos totaling 9 minutes. Math 1054 has 3,  5 minute videos. They are in the course tabs. 

Test tomorrow

It's important to study for tests.

The calendar of lessons and assignments for the next chapter has been posted for each course.

Review day tomorrow.
Friday Test 1.
Math 1054 go to theYoutube tab and watch the first 7 minutes of the video on graphing rational functions. 

Welcome

Welcome to the Math Matters blog. You'll find material related to our course as well as mathematical items that I hope will interest, intrigue and amaze you.
Let's begin with the frequently asked question " Why should I study math?" 
The cartoon below answers this question once and for all.

All kidding aside, your main interest in math at this moment is probably to learn as much as you can to do as well as you can in my class. Hopefully there will be value in what you learn beyond the grade you receive from me.  This site is intended to provide you with another  resource to help you achieve that goal. You might even have some fun along the way.

Our revised calendar is the first item we need to talk about.

MATH 1044 and MATH 1054 will both be taking Test #1 on Friday Feb. 13. I expect to complete the new work this Monday and use next Wed. as a review day. A review assignment has been posted for each course.

Millions of people do Sudoku or crossword puzzles every day. The Academy Award nominee The Imitation Game is about the ultimate puzzle and how it was solved. Checkout the posting under Items of Special Interest for more about that story.
