#precalculus — Public Fediverse posts

"I need a tutor who really understands precalculus."

"Hello, I can help with your precalculus needs."

"Okay, but do you *really* understand it."

"Er... yes?"

"Prove to me that you really understand it."

"Hmm... okay. Imagine a right triangle...."

"A right triangle? OMG! You're a genius! Tutor me! Tutor me, now, and forever!"

I have a file of note on conics... I called it "Conics (Prealgebra)"

WTF prealgebra??????????????????????

Conics are not seen in prealgebra.

I probably meant precalculus and my brain farted.

I'm also searching for resources on the web. It is really great when I run into a syllabus that does not have any class content in it. Oh, you got loads of class rules, but who knows what the class actually covers.

I'm also realizing that the US is as bad as Canada when it comes to ensuring consistency. I find Precalculus syllabi that don't include limits.

Lol wut???

Isn't this a Pre*calculus* class?!

I guess universities here have to do the same thing that École Polytechnique de Montréal had to do when I went there. The first year was designed to equalize the student population. I was bored out of my skull because the classes I had prior to entering covered the necessary material.

Does anyone have an online and free Precalculus course that they especially like and is tutor-friendly?

I have a student who might ask for a full Precalculus class. I'm not sure yet.

Note, that I do know about Khan Academy's course. That's the one I used for review.

(Alternatively, if you know a tutor-friendly website with free math courses, let me know.)

So, I need some input from other #teachers in #education who are #teaching on a #blockschedule. This is the first time that my school will be doing it, this is only my 2nd year teaching and last year we had normal 50-minute classes. I am going to be teaching #algebra2, #precalculus, and #apcalculus. My question is -- what break duration do you suggest? I'm thinking 5 minutes and give them the chance to walk around the room and such, get up, stretch, at about 40 after class starts, pick up again from 45 after and continue until the 90 minutes is up. I would love to get input?

@screwtape doing the #precalculus as a pre-req for university-level statistics. I’m doing a try-before-you-buy routine on data analysis as a career change.

Time for some #precalculus and #bourbon - yeah I know how to Saturday…
