EXTRA ITEMS FOR CERTAIN TOPICS
Reviews of and Lessons on Factoring can be Found Here.
You can believe me when I tell you that YOU WILL NEED TO BE SKILLED AT FACTORING. While I might do a VERY quick brush through review, I WILL NOT teach the topic from scratch and I WILL proceed on the assumption that you are able to factor.

BASIC FORMS
Basic Forms can be found Here
Occasionally students want to know what they can do before the semester to help them to get started. I would say there are two things:
1) Review your TRIGONOMETRY
2) Start (re)memorizing the first 18 or 20 of the Basic Forms

VIDEO LESSONS
The links to the video lessons are Here or you may use the drop-down menus above.
In the drop-down menus above, I have gathered the videos I made for when I taught the course during the pandemic. You should feel free to use these or not, as you desire.
If you miss a day of class, you may find the topic and watch the video for it. Hopefully that will help you get up to speed.
I should say that these are such as they are – the production values are VERY low. But they were sufficient for the cause, and if you wish, you are free to avail yourself of them.
