Week 1 - Progress

For the first unit I feel my understanding at the beginning of the week was not very good. I feel with the discussions in class are good for learning the new stuff but I really needed to go home and practice or make sure I could do it on my own. I think the homework is very helpful for this. For me personally, the inequality and interval notation came to me easily. As the week went on we got into domain and range, that's where I really needed to go home and make sure I could do it alone. The combining and composition was a little fuzzy at first, my main problem was finding out how to rewrite the "f o g." I did not understand how to rewrite it but by saying "f following g" and that made a lot more sense. Then putting it in f(g(x)). I feel by the end of the week when we had our test, I was confident about the general problems but got a little tripped up on 2 or 3 of the more challenging problems. Overall I feel this first unit went well and I learned what I personally need to do to stay on top of this class.
