Difficulty of the lesson. Fair or Not?

• As a student who takes two classes online, it is a struggle to keep up with both classes. The videos of this course is what i really struggle with. When I am not on track with work, i think of it as unfair due to all the work pile-up. But when i know my pace with the work, it seems fair enough regarding with the time frame.

Comment on the teacher and if there is anything to improve the course.

• For this course, fun and simple activities should be put up such as crossword puzzles on the terms for a specific chapter, or problems for extra credit. The teacher should make ways possible for the student to pass, to help him/her along the way of getting what is required to graduate or simply pass. 

What have you learned throughout the quarter so far? What does the lesson remind you of? How can you use the things you've learned in real life situations? How is this relevant to your life?

• For this quarter what i have learned so far is how to simplify rational expressions using the distributive property and mostly how to determine them either by dividing, subtracting, adding or subtracting. This lesson reminds me of specific problems i had to do in Algebra 1 where the distributive property took place and includes so many steps dealing with inequalities. In real life situations, solving equations to get an answer is used in several subjects such as Chemistry. In my chemistry class, we use different type of graphs to distinguish a piece of information. Along with that graph comes a formula and an equation that you have to input the distributive property.
