New Insights and Implications

I am a notoriously poor math student. In high school, math was constantly the one class waging war against my GPA. Naturally, I dread all things math when it comes to college. This class is nice because it breaks down mathematics into coherent pieces which all fit together. I am beginning to develop a view of math in which all of the elements are interconnect. The activity we did with mean and standard deviation really cemented that concept. I think I will always be slightly uncomfortable with math, and there is no way I would be qualified to teach it at a high level, but at the very least I am confident that through this class I will build skills necessary to teach it at the elementary level, and convey connected ideas to students.
