College Algebra

[edit] Introduction

The scope of this learning experience is to study basic mathematical concepts that are required for a general liberal arts education on a college or university level. Topics covered will include number theory, mathematical proofs, geometry, polynomial equations, and functions. Because there are multiple learning styles, each lesson will be presented (hopefully) in three ways. These learning styles are:

Visual (V)
Auditory (A)
Kinesthetic (K)

[edit] Study Materials

Instruction will occur primarily out of the (admittedly incomplete) Algebra Wikibook:

Algebra Wikibook

Additional resources will be obtained from existing Algebra texts listed below:

Mirwin 09:39, 18 August 2006 (UTC) I can help out with some mentoring or tutoring where materials are difficult to understand and possibly help fill gaps in available materials. I have a B.S. in Engineering Physics so I have done quite a bit of practical algebra even if it is a bit rusty in spots. Participants drop queries or requests for assistance on my talk page and we will create some appropriate space from there to work from.

--MarkyParky 22:58, 25 August 2006 (UTC) I can help out when people are stuck on some problem, or just need something explained from a different perspective.
