Course details
This course is next in a series of how to simplify and apply operations to rational expressions as well as solving rational equations. Like with any book or lesson plan the course is broken down into three parts.
- Introduction
- Examples
- Conclusion
The introduction is broken down to a couple of segments to help introduce the student to what they will learning throughout the course and what they will need to know to be successful. Providing essential definitions, processes, and tips and tricks that will help the student work through the examples outlined in the course.
In the examples the student will have access to a wide variety of problems that not only focus on basic to advanced but also additional skills that students may see in problems on a test or homework. The variety of the problems are designed to always keep the student thinking but remained focused on applying the general concepts of the course. The student will explore problems using the the properties of exponents to factoring different types of quadratics to help multiply and divide.
Each example is accompanied by a step by step tutorial for the student to follow if they get stuck or simply want to check their answer. If the student prefers to try on their own but just wants a hint on how to start. Each tutorial's description outlines that Properties and Processes used for the problem as well as a helpful hint to help you get started.
To finish of the course you will be asked to discuss and reflect on a set of essential questions that cover what was taught during the course. You may also elect to challenge your skills with extension problems. A summary will be provided with common mistakes and highlighted points from the course that are essential that you remember.
This course is apart of the series of Rational Expressions and equations and is really your foundation for what you need to complete the other courses. The course will only take a couple of hours but is designed to be used as a complete guide and reinforcement tool to be used over a couple of days.
