The Trig and Pre-Calculus Tutor covers essential material
necessary for most calculus curriculum requirements in New Zealand and Australia, using the same language and formalism.
This five hour classroom supplement is not a substitute for a good teacher, rather it is an assistant: it can assist the teacher to be a more effective maths teacher using Jason's approach and ideas; or the teacher can use the DVD in the classoom - stopping and starting the DVD as Jason works through examples, you can check student understanding yourself, before
proceeeding with the DVD.
Disc 1 includes: complex numbers; exponential functions; logarithmic functions; solving logarithmic and exponential functions; angles. As any math teacher can verify - exponents and logs seem very mysterious to most students. Jason's approach is exemplary. Students understand the concepts better after viewing this DVD.
Disc 2 includes: finding trig functions using triangles; finding trig functions using the unit circle; graphing trig functions; trig identies and equations.
Again, Jason's approach is careful and clear. He uses day-to-day ideas and concepts to get the message across. Excellent for teacher and student alike. You can get a good feel for the approach taken in this resource by clicking the preview link above. Highly recommended.
