Description
This course will prepare students for the ACT Math section by teaching them techniques and strategies they can use on multiple-choice questions, show them how to use a TI-84 Plus graphing calculator to solve questions, and review/teach common topics from Algebra, Geometry, and Probability & Statistics. It covers over 80 ACT Math related topics in 10+ hours of instructional videos with example problems. It also features practice assignments (PDF) at the end of each module with over 150 total practice problems (and full video solutions to each problem) from previous ACT exams to ensure student mastery. The full topic list is available in the introduction section of the course.There are 5 modules in the course (Strategies & Techniques, Calculator Operations, Algebra Review, Geometry Review, and Probability & Statistics + Miscellaneous Topics) and each module has lectures which contain a video with notes and example problems on the various topics featured in it. Then, after the student has completed all the lectures in a module, there is a homework assignment (PDF file) which has 25-36 problems from previously administered ACT exams for the student to complete. There are video solutions to each problem on these worksheets included in the course. Students should have completed Algebra 1, Algebra 2, and Geometry in order to achieve the best results from this course and should have a TI-84 Plus model graphing calculator in order to achieve the most benefit from the course.
