Previous knowledge/skill and attitude (sometimes referred to as “mindset”) are important foundations for learning. In this first discussion, reflect on these two foundations and write a response for each of them to begin your practice of communicating technical information. Your response should be approximately 500 words containing two paragraphs, one for each foundation.

Now that you have completed the Module 1 Prerequisite Skills HW assignment and reviewed your Study Plan, reflect on how well you did. Some questions to prod your thinking include:

Do you remember learning these concepts previously?
Are there some rules that you forgot? Which ones?
Did you zip through the assignment with little or no difficulty?
Did you try out the Learning Aids in MML? If so, which is your favorite tool and why?
Attitude
Describe your thoughts or feelings about the skills you should have coming into this course and expectations for what you will be learning in this course. Be sure to connect your reflections to the Learning Outcomes listed on the Syllabus page. Just a reminder that the Learning Outcomes are different than those in MATH 111.
Some things to consider writing about:

Topics for this course that will build on the skills previously learned.
How a particular teacher influenced your feelings toward learning mathematics.
A good/bad experience in an early math class that might have influenced your attitude towards math.
How you use math in your work-related activities or daily life.
You also might want to consider the definition of Limits. How is the mathematical definition different from or similar to what you use in your daily life.
