responses to each question must contain at least one substantive, 3-sentence minimum, well-written paragraph.

1. WHAT mathematical principles have you used this week in your personal or professional life?

This question is not specific to the particular chapter in which we are working; rather, this question is focused on mathematics in general.

In addition to your description of the mathematical principles, please provide the equation, formula, or numerical example to illustrate the way in which mathematics played a role in your personal or professional life.

2. HOW have your study strategies helped you become more familiar with the material this week?

This question is focused on how you’re studying and learning mathematics.

What strategies are you using to practice and learn the concepts covered this week?

How is this approach the same or different from the strategies you used previously?

Provide a step by step example of the strategy you used to solve one of the problems in the book (this means, did you go online, did you read the content, did you ask a friend).

What is your plan for mastering the material before the quiz or exam?

3. WHAT skill have you mastered this week that you didn't know how to do when you began the term?

This question is not limited to this seminar. Perhaps the skill you’ve mastered was covered in an earlier portion of your learning and it’s just now become clear.

What was it that provided the clarity in your mind?

HOW will this knowledge help you in the remainder of our course (or the future)?

4. WHAT is your favorite newly learned mathematics skill and WHY?

your post must be well-written, meaningful and detailed]

5.Search online for real-life examples that utilize the natural exponential function. Explain in your own words how the function models the real-life situation. Your example must be different from the examples posted earlier.
