Blogging Tip: Tutorials

People have expressed a desire to become stronger on such topics as factoring, long division of polynomials, interpreting graphs of trigonomteric functions, etc.

A useful and interesting post (and one incidentally that would weigh quite favorably in the grading scheme) would be to post a mini-tutorial that you have created.

Such a post might inlcude:
  • Background theory
  • Examples with Solutions
  • Practice Problems
  • Extra challenge problems
  • A link to a help site

The sky is the limit. I think that if you undertake such a project, you will find it much more rewarding and effective than doing homework problems from the book.

"See it. Do it. Teach it."

Consider employing some interesting form of presentation. See Mr. Moyano for technology tips.

Good luck.
