First OpenLab Assignment

Your first OpenLab Discussion assignment is to introduce yourself to your classmates.  This assignment is due Monday, September 4th, at the start of class. Late submissions will receive partial credit.

Assignment. Add a comment in reply to this post introducing yourself to the class.  Your comment should be at least 2 paragraphs in length.  In the first paragraph, introduce yourself in whatever way you wish. You could include your academic interests, why you chose your major, what you enjoy reading, listening to, watching, and doing in your spare time, or anything else you want to share (include your pronouns, if you wish).  In the second paragraph, choose ONE of the following two topics and write a response. Don’t forget to tell us which topic you chose.

Topics (choose ONE).

  1. Was math ever your favorite subject? If so, when was it? What about math made it your favorite? If math has never been your favorite subject, what about it do you not like?
  2. Sometimes people can recognize a time when their opinion of math dramatically changed either for the better or the worse. Tell us about it.

Extra Credit. Get to know your classmates! For extra credit, write a response to one of your classmates’ comments. Do you feel the same? Did you learn anything? Do you have any advice? Be kind.

Greetings and Salutations!

Hello all,

This is Mr. Lee… first blog and everything… MATH! Yay! Algebra and Trigonometry! Even MORE YAY!

I will try my best to keep you all up to date on the happenings within the class, whether it be assignments, course policies, deadlines, etc. This will indeed be quite important… as soon as I figure out how to use this thing.

It will be important to know that if you want to ask questions about  WebWork, you will need to register for an OpenLab account to do so. You need to have a city tech email.

My email address is vilee@citytech.cuny.edu.

Let us try our best this semester.

Thanks,

Professor Lee
