Goal-setting for this semester's class

Hope this helps someone,
Luke
Goal Setting
Hey there.. My goal for the year in math is to learn everything well enough to obtain an average of 75 or better. I'm going to have to focus and do homework more regularly than previous years.
Here is a picture of my beloved cookie monster. I hope my average is better than a "c".
While searching the net i found the site.. "http://www.math.com/homeworkhelp/Calculus.html". It is very helpful if you are stuck on your homework. It offers formulas, tables, study tips and test preperation.

Goal Setting by IB
Font Test
My goal in this class is to obtain a final grade of 90% or higher. I am very confident that I will get very close to 100%.
Here is a picture of me:
At any rate, here is a resource I found on the internet:
http://www.artofproblemsolving.com/
It is for high school math students looking for a challenge and/or to practice for math competitions.
Good luck with the course.

Goal Setting
During the course of this semester in Pre-Calc Math I hope to achieve a goal of 80% or higher. I also am trying to pay more attention and be a more productive student than last semester.
This picture cracks me up everytime I see it. Make sure you don't do this on a test!

Finally, a link that I used briefly last semester and I think will be beneficial for everybody in the class room is as follows:

If you ever need help with theory or practice assignment, quizzes, exams etc.. you can go to this website.
Thanks,

My Goals
- My main goal for Pre-calculus 40S (and all my classes really, but especially this one) is that I won't be distracted by my friends and that I'll be able to stay focused on my work.
- I've also set a personal goal to achieve honor roll, so it will be very important to keep my math mark above 80%.
- Blogging is a fairly new thing for me so I'm looking forward to learning more about it.

I found this site with some sweet math games so I would advise you all to check it out.

Here's another great reference site. I found it had clear definitions and a lot of information. It's built with mathematica technology, which is extremely useful if I remember correctly from my grade 10 applied days...

Practice Post Assignment
Instructions: By tomorrow (Tuesday, February 12, 2008), you must have a created a post on our class blog, by following these criteria:
1. Must include some sort of measurable goal for yourself for the semester in this course that you can look back on once in a while to evaluate your progress. (Your goal may be a percentage grade in the course, attendance-based, related to your own tendencies to not prepare as well as you should, etc, etc., etc. …but it needs to be yours, it needs to be public, and it needs to be measureable)
2. You must include multiple text sizes, fonts and colours in your post.
3. You must include at least one classroom-appropriate image uploaded to your post. (Figure out how…your image may be uploaded from the school network or the web, but if you take the image from somewhere, give appropriate credit please)
4. You must include at least one relevant (to our class, to you, or to your goal-setting post) link on the web within your post. (again, figure out how…)
5. You must include these labels for your post: Your profile name on blogger (that you use to sign your posts), and also the expression "goal-setting"
Class blog URL’s are on the south wall of the classroom, and computer assignments are on the north wall of the classroom.
Good luck, and help each other wherever you can…
