Final Blog Questions:
1. What would you do the same next quarter that you did this quarter? (notes, attendance, attentativeness, organization,.......etc.) I would keep taking the same types of notes, and try to keep my organization skills up.
2. What would you do differently next quarter that you did this quarter? Try to keep up with Mr. Fournier's computer work.
3. How does Mr. Fournier's grade compare to the one you feel you deserve? Elaborate on why you feel this way. Well, although I'd rather not say this, because I'd like to keep my thoughts and opinions to myself. But, I feel as if I deserve a higher grade. I do alot of work in this class, and I just can't keep up with the computer work, just like everyone else, I feel as if it is unfair.
4. What part of the subject of algebra did you become best at? Everything's a bit even.
5. What part(s) do you need to work on? How are you going to do that before it is too late?
I'd say I need to work on fractions. I've always been bad with fractions.
6. Keeping time & subject material out of the equation (since there is no control of that), what would you like to see Mr. Fournier do differently that would help you next quarter? I would like to see Mr. Fournier do less computer work, and more work sheets.
7. Imagine you were calling your friend who is a year younger and going to take this course next year. Explain to them in 25 words or less how to succeed in this course.
Don't miss one day of this class, or you'll end up failing.
8. Write a summary of the four projects that you did this quarter. (what were they, what type of math did you need to know for each, what math did you learn on the project, how does it relate to real life............etc.) The first project we did, the glogster project, glogster is an online program that you post writings, videos, and backgrounds on. We need note taking skills, because we were just writing what the teachers did on the videos we posted. The second project we did, the rumor project, we used another online program called blabberize, which lets you paste a picture on a webpage, puts a moving mouth on the picture, and lets you talk through it. We needed the skills of solving proportions, because we had to write a secret code, with proportions for the math problems. I learned how to solve proportions from this project. This could relate to real life, because we had to creat real life scenarios.
The third project we did, which was the virus project, we had to create a virus out of lines. The type of math we used for this project was the graphing of lines. I've always been bad at graphing, my teacher last year didn't teach it very well, so this was a good refresher, it cleared some questions for me. This could relate to real life because a virus might actually look like what someone created. The final project we did was the line of best fit project, in this project we had to copy our line of best fit from the website we did it on. We also had to post it to our blogs, and we had to write a description underneath it. We used the same type of math as the virus project, we needed to know how to graph a line. I didn't learn anything this project, because I already learned the math from the virus project. This could be used in real life because, it shows the increase or decrease in something.
9. Find some else's blog and leave an insightful comment on one of their postings. kk.
