REFLECTION

• Why did you choose the concepts you did to create your problem set?

The units that Ivanna and I chose for our project were the units that we both had difficulty in. The reason why we chose them because it would mean that we would have to practice it enough to actually teach it or explain it to someone else who didn't know a thing about that unit. By going through the units that were difficult for us would mean that we have to understand everything to teach it, so it would help us learn the unit itself.


• How do these problems provide an overview of your best mathematical understanding of what you have learned so far?

Well, since the units we chose were the units where we struggled in probably won't show our best. However we did try our hardest to learn the units as much as possible to generate hard questions and solve them. Our best work would probably be how hard we tried to learn the units and how hard we worked on the project.


• Did you learn anything from this assignment? Was it educationally valuable to you?

I learned some things from the assignment. Not very big but some things that will help in the future. I got a better understanding for the units and it defiantly got me to remember the units. I know how to explain how i arrived at my answers better as well. I learned how to generate my questions easier. By working backwards it will work out, like choose some numbers and make the question work for the answer. When I first saw this I was amazed at how easier it made everything. I tried it myself and it works better because now by working backwards I know how to explain it. This assignment was of much value to me, it got me to think and remember my units.
