Category: Class Agendas

• In Regular bases, there will be:
• A textbook assigned topic for reading prior to each session, and after the session for studying in-depth.
• One or a few short videos to be watched prior to class. Those videos are related to the topic as entry to the new concepts and an/or an introduction to the new concept(s).
• There will be Homework assigned on our City Tech WebWork class site.
• The class sessions mainly will be held on the Blackboard Collaborate Ultra with some exceptions for a few sessions that will be in zoom. Those sessions will be announced. Recordings will be released for each lesson on Blackboard Collaborate Ultra(Most of them) and/or zoom (depended on where the session will be).

There will be a group research project related to real-life applications of inverse functions. This project will be launched in detail in the second half of the semester.

Class Info

• Date: Fall Semester starts on August 26, and ends on December 21, 2020.
• The first class is on Wednesday, August 26, 2020.
• The Final Exam will be in the last class which is 12/21/2020.
• Meeting Info: Our meetings on the blackboard. You can access it by logging in to the blackboard, and select Collaborate Ultra on the menu of the course.
• For the zoom, you will receive the first announcement which will have the information and the link to access the meeting room.

Important to know: Not all the videos in the link above are the same as the ones on the table under this note. You can explore and choose the ones that work best for you. When I assign any discussions or quiz, etc around the topic(s), you can watch any of them/or all of them and answer the questions or discuss.

The first Lesson Agenda example:

To-Do Before Class

1- Read the textbook Pages 2-11, The absolute value.

2- Watch the video:

Topic

1- Absolute Value Inequalities

2- Interval Notation

Objectives

• Understanding the absolute value and being able to find the absolute value of a real number.
• Solving absolute value equations and inequalities.
• Writing solutions in interval notation.

Activities

Lecture and examples, solving absolute value inequalities class activities, readings, videos, slides, notes, recordings of class meetings conducted via web BCU. 

(BCU stands for Blackboard Collaborate Ultra, OL for online, OLab for the open lab. I will be using them a lot)

To-Do After Class

• Study, practice, and do the assignment on Webwork.
• Use all the resources provided and listed for Lesson 1.
