Exam Error Analysis For Linear Equations In One...
I reviewed my home work problems and went over my notes.
The same as I did before.
I Understand all the concepts if I review 15 minutes a day.
I need to work on bringing down my signs and checking my answers.
They were all pretty easy for me, but the fractions were a little tricky for me.
LEARNING STYLE SURVEY
ilovepadre:
1. VISUAL LEARNING
2. AUDITORY LEARNING
3. KINESTHETIC/ TACTILE LEARNING
THINGS THAT HELP ME WITH LEARNING:
TAKING GOOD NOTES AND HIGHLIGHTING THINGS THAT ARE IMPORTANT SUCH AS FORMULAS OR TERMS.
NOTE CARDS ARE ALSO A GOOD IDEA BECAUSE U CAN USE THEM AS FLASH CARDS BEFORE THE TEST.
REWRITING NOTES OR THINGS THAT ARE METIONED IN CLASS PRIOR TO THE TEST ARE IMPORTANT SINCE U ARE...
learning style survey

visual learning
kinesthetic/tactile learning
auditory learning
before i do the problem i visualize it in my head first/ i think its easier this way because when you put it on paper you can see what you did wrong.
i have to have the teacher write things on the board to understand it/i have to do that so i know that im doing it right and im not trying to figure something out i have no...
SELF TALK
ilovepadre:
1. I AM RESPONSIBLE FOR MY OWN WORK TO PASS THE COURSE.
2. IF I STUDY HARD THE MORE PROUD I WILL MAKE MYSELF AT THE END OF THE SEMESTER.
3. IF I FOCUS ON MATH THE MORE LIKELY I AM TO UNDERSTAND IT.
4. IF I THINK NEGATIVE IT WILL RESULT IN A POOR GRADE.
5. MATH SKILLS ARE USED IN EVERYDAY LIFE.
6. THE MORE I PRACTICE THE EASIER MATH WILL BE.
7. KEEPING AN ORGANIZED NOTEBOOK WILL...
Chapter 4 Self-Talk
If I just pay attention in class I will get good grades.
Just do the homework and I’ll learn.
The more I practice the easier it will become.
Math is just as hard as you make it.
The sooner I do my work the quicker I’ll be done.
If I’m having trouble don’t be afraid to ask for help.
just remember in the end I’ll be making more money.
Chapter 3 Techniques from the Learning Styles...
My primary learning style is visual.
My second is kinesthetic.
My third is auditory.
Very organized and thorough note taking, because I feel that is a strong point with me.
Making note cards sounds like a good technique because the I’ll have small enough cards that I can carry with me and study every free chance I get.
Writing and highlighting in my text book would help alot, then I...

Chapter 10 Putting It All Together
I think the most effective technique for me is studying my notes, studying my past tests, taking mock tests, and making a cheat sheet. I don’t think I’ll be using the technique of writing my own test for the simple reason that I have a great teacher that will give mock tests or quizzes.
Chapter 9 Retention and General Study Strategies
I learned in chapter 9 that when you first learn a skill you need to practice it over and over to obtain it in your long term memory. Anything you learn goes through your short term memory to your long term memory. Your short term only lasts for 30 seconds, so when some one says they’re craming it into their short term memory they are wrong.I also learned there are techniques you can use...
Exam Error Analysis
I studied my mathlab and notes.
I will do the same next time.
Follow steps of order of operation.
I have to not rush through the problems.
I thought they were all pretty easy, the problems at the end of the test were a little more difficult, but I understand what I did wrong.
Finding Professor Right
ilovepadre:
I think a few good qualities that a teacher should have are:
1. Really caring about how they lecture and making sure the students understand.
2. Making sure that the assignments go along with the topics not just any random questions.
3.Being available for students to ask questions and make appointments for tutoring.
I totally agree with you on #3!

What makes math tough?
I believe that math is tough because of the formulas that are implied on spacific problems. Also, perhaps that all the numbers that hold different sighns of operations cause a organizational problems for me. THe vocabulary as well can be an issue such as it is implied on the instructions.
Pg.18
Quality 1 The teacher must be able to break the work easily...
Chapter 1 and 2
Quality 1: Catches your attention and keeps it.
Quality 2: Great knowledge of what they are teaching. Just because they teach dont mean they know everything of what they’re teaching.
Strict but not overly strict, and not overly leanant.
Chapter 1 and 2
I think what makes math tough is all the formulas, procedures, and steps you have to memorize to work out problems. They can get confusing. I sometimes use the wrong steps of formulas or procedures to solve a probem.

ACAM DAY 1
montano18:
I LOVE TO STUDY WITH SOME BOMB ASS STUDY SKILLS!!!! I ALWAYS GIVE 99% PERCENT OF MY MIND SKILLS TO MY WORK CUZ I DONT WANNA GET A BRAIN OVER LOAD IF YA KNO WHAT I MEAN LOL
I know what you mean!
Acam day 1
My study habits are as follows 1st I have to take excesive note taking for studing. 2nd I have to study alot to do good on tests and finals. Finally I have to pay attention in class or I know i’ll get lost. Also when i’m studying I need to be left alone. I don’t ask alot of questions I try to figure out myself. So that should some up my study skills.

Today I worked on word problems on the disk, I also got certified on algebra I skills, I also went over both my mock finals. On wed. i did some fractions /. And on monday I did the mock final i had(I was out of town).I wasn’t able to blog on those days so thats why i’m doing it now. Every thing is coming together so I feel I’ll do fine on the final.

Today I worked on the disk I worked on fractions did practice problems started a certification got some tutoring worked on multiplication and division problems on woorksheet(fractions). Going to work on a mock test for friday, i might be here i might not. My wifes grandmother passed away yesterday so i’ll be leaving to Denver friday so I might miss class depends on what time we leave....

Today i forgot my work disk so i worked on multipling and dividing fractions on worksheets. I also worked on the problems i missed on my placement test. In which i did better than i thought i did. I also got some tutoring on the problems i missed from Amber. All in all it was a good productive class!
math class
today i worked on the work disc (instruction) on fractions and some other stuff
i did some work sheet problems and did some certifications on the disc
its all starting to come together slowly but surly
all in all a good couple of hours
math class
Today i learned alot about whole numbers that i forgot . Actually once i started doing problems it started coming back to me. I forgot how hard math can be but i enjoy the challange of tring to figure problems out. what a great begining

I’m feeling pretty excited about starting school again.
