Math Reflection Reflect and Write

Reflect & Write Previous knowledge/skill and attitude (sometimes referred to as “mindset”) are important foundations for learning. In this first discussion, reflect on these two foundations and write a two-paragraph response (at least 500 words in total) for each of the following two areas to begin your practice of communicating technical information. Past Think back to when you were in your early school days and reflect on your mathematical experiences. Be sure to concentrate on you, rather than on the influences of teachers, parents, siblings, etc. Some questions to prod your thinking include: What study habits or classroom activities helped you learn math? Which ones were not helpful? Did group activities help you learn math, help improve your grade, or both? Did you have different study habits for your math classes than for your other classes? If so, why? Present Think about your college experiences with math. If this is your first college mathematics class, answer these questions with how you think this semester will go. Have your study habits changed or remained the same? Are they working? Are there any modifications that you have made, or plan to make, now that you are in an online math class?  In either section, Past or Present, refer to at least two of the Learning Outcomes listed in the syllabus to connect your memories to this class. Review the course syllabus located in the navigation menu. Post & Reply Post your 500-word, two-paragraph response by the end of the fourth day of the module week. Then, read your classmates’ posts and reply to at least two with observations that add to a conversation about the course topics. You must make your initial post before you can see the posts of your classmates. Please read these instructions for information on accessing the discussion rubric.  (Links to an external site.)
