Week 18 Notes 

Tuesday, January 17, 2006  

This is it!!!! This week, just review lessons, and in calc, not even that. We're almost halfway through the year, which is pretty amazing, I think.

Anyway, by virtue of these being reviews, these are pretty good lessons to check out before finals. See you soon!

Week 17 Notes 

Tuesday, January 10, 2006  

Week 17 is the penult for the fall term, which is a word I learned in college and doesn't actually apply to weeks. It also makes me sound smart, which is, as you have all heard me say, pretty good cover.

Anyway, calculus is reviewing this week, Math B is working on interest and half-lives, and statistics is taking a look at the standard normal distribution before it turns to a review for the final.

Week 15 & 16 Notes 

Tuesday, January 03, 2006  

So, the thing about week 15 was that there was this transit strike. You may have heard about it. It was awesome. I got some exercise, which was good considering how much I ate over the holidays.

Anyway, our schedule got all screwed up. The week 14 homework is now due this thursday, and there are a few lessons listed here for everyone, except stats -- you guys will finish your project this week, and then we'll begin reviewing for the final.
