The internet can be a powerful ally when you are trying to figure out how to solve a problem. 

When you select the link to Learning Material for the week of the class, you will see a section labeled Handy Helpers.

The first section in the Handy Helpers takes you to a page with links to videos, math sites, PowerPoints, cheat sheets and other materials that explain the topics covered in that section.

Pick one of the Handy Helpers from either Week 1 or Week 2 that no one else has reported on, select Start a New Conversation, and make the subject the name of the link (for example: YouTube patrickJMT: Finding the Slope of a Line). Then give us a review of the "helper". Include what you like or don't like about it and why you think it may be helpful to others.

In the body of your text, also include a hyperlink to the site since it is sometimes difficult to find a specific item among all the resources. That way your classmates can also benefit from the site – or avoid it, depending on your review!

You must also give a substantive response to two classmate's posts. You may ask questions to elicit a more in-depth explanation, add additional information to your own posting in response to questions, share additional knowledge on another posting or share an example from your own life related to the topic. Simply saying "Good post!" will not earn any points.
