Sections 5.1 - 5.4 are planned to be covered until 4/2/10
Your skills checklist for Chapter 5 are listed below. Please copy these to a sticky on your laptop or write them down in your notebooks. I ask that you refrain from printing them since you have access to them on your laptop/electronically at all times. Please keep in mind that the orange, Pre-Calculus textbook is a class set textbook. We do not have enough for every student to take home so plan to use your time wisely to get questions answered and work done in class.
Skills List
On my own, without the assistance of the textbook, solutions guide, a classmate, or an instructor, I should be able to...
1. Recognize and evaluate exponential functions with base a.
2. Graph exponential functions and use the One-to-One property.
3. Recognize, evaluate, and graph exponential functions with base e.
4. Recognize and evaluate logarithmic functions with base a.
5. Graph log. functions.
6. Recognize, evaluate, and graph natural logarithmic functions.
7. Solve simple, complicated, and complex exponential & logarithmic functions.

Keep in mind that the videos above are a resource. They may or may not have material that applies directly to our math class, and might not necessarily cover everything we need to cover in class. So although they are very helpful, make sure you are not just learning the material in the videos.
There are MANY resources both in class and online that you have access to - UTILIZE THEM!
