Hello class,

This is just a reminder that your first test will be on Monday, March 4, 2024. You will not receive a test paper unless you submit your cell phone and smartwatch (if you have one).

You will not be allowed to use a calculator.

There will be no “test corrections”.

The following topics you should consider studying (Some topics will be assessed in other topics.:

• Order of Operations
• Factoring (GCF, Grouping, AC Method, Trinomials, Difference of Squares, all of the above in the same problem )
• Addition/Subtraction of Polynomials
• Division of Fractions (with variables)
• Simplifying Rational Expressions
• Multiplying polynomials
• Division by Monomial
• Division by Polynomial
• Complex Fractions
• Integer Exponents

Your first OpenLab Discussion assignment is to introduce yourself to your classmates.  This assignment is due Monday, February 5th, 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.
