Encyclopedia Project
For my Encyclopedia Project I focused on studying rational functions. During this project found a definition of rational functions along with what jobs use rational functions and what background knowledge you need to know to properly help solve a rational function. After a month of studying rational functions I put together a Prezi Presentation about the general usage of Rational Functions. During this project I focused on one job that uses rational functions, I studying how registered nurses use rational functions in there every day career. I specifically focused on how rational functions help predict the amount of drug concentration in a patients blood stream. During this project I also wrote a summery of what knowledge you need in order to use rational functions and properly solve a rational function.
I enjoyed this project because I was a great way to go in-depth with the basic understanding of rational functions. Instead of working in a book and trying to understand rational functions I was able to interview people in the field that use rational functions every day. This helped me become more engaged with my learning and find a motivation to why I should be studying rational functions.

First Semester
Once I heard there was going to be a two part exam, I thought my grade was over. Then after countless hours of studying and spending my lunches working with Effi, making sure I had a full understanding of the material. I take full pride in all of my work but I have to say I am most proud of my part 1 final, I am most proud of this project because, I spent the time making sure it was my best work. Going back and getting help with the curtain subject really helped me figure out what I did wrong and what I should look out for in the other test to come. With also spending the lunches working through tests also helped my grade get raised because of getting the corrections done I got partial credit back. Spending the weekend before the test studying and also going through the review packet for 20 minutes a day defiantly helped me when it came to the final exam. When I had a question about the practice problem I would ask a friend who helped explain it to me in a new way. Last year I was in an Algebra class for half of a semester, I did not understand my old teachers teaching methods. Having someone new with different methods helped me retain the information I was learning. With in this year I also learned very quickly that procrastination does not help you in the long run. This is helpful information for the future as well that does apply to any situation. With self advocating and learning how to study properly I can apply these skills to future test and class and even every situation I may get my self into with the future.
