Class Discussion:
Reflect on what you have learned so far in this class, and use your experience to provide some advice to future MATH 105 students. The course includes consumer math, exponential and logarithmic functions, logic, statistics; and probability. Please address the following:
- How did you initially feel about taking this course?
- What did you expect to learn? Did your experience match your expectations?
- What worked well for you in learning the material (text, videos, ALEKS Objective problems, LEO problem sets, discussions, interacting with the instructor, other)?
- Is there anything you would have done differently? Is there anything that you wish someone had told YOU at the beginning of this class?
