Semester 1 Reflection
Content Skill:
One mathematical skill I feel I have mastered this semester has been F.O.I.L. F.O.I.L stands for First, Outside, Inside, and Last. F.O.I.L is used to simplify equations.
One mathematical skill I feel I have mastered this semester has been F.O.I.L. F.O.I.L stands for First, Outside, Inside, and Last. F.O.I.L is used to simplify equations.
Exploration 18 was an assignment that really helped me gain an understanding of the F.O.I.L concept when I had the assistance from my math tutor.
Exploration 19 was another assignment involving F.O.I.L where I could continue practicing the concept and getting more and more comfortable with it.
By the time I did exploration 20 I felt like I mastered this concept which made me feel very proud and I know will come in big for future assignments and tests.
Problem Solving skill:
A problem solving skill I feel that I have deomnstrated this semester has been asking clarifying questions.
An example of this would be on a quiz that happened towards the beginning of the year where I lost points on two of the last three problems and I had to ask my teacher for clarification in order to correct my mistakes on the test and earn points back.
Another skill I feel like I have demonstrated well has been Restating the problem in a different way that adds to our understanding. When I understand how to do a problem one way then it makes solving it another way much easier.
An example of this would be Practice 16 which involved rewriting exponential equation into logarithmic equations and vice versa. This helped gain an understanding of the whole concept of exponents and logarithms and how they compare.
