Algebra 1A class
- This online course is equivalent to 1 semester of high school Algebra 1 or
half of Introductory Algebra in college.
- This is a self-paced course.
- There is a sequel to this class, Algebra 1B.
You can register for it later, if you choose.
- There are LESSONS in the required textbook and my own LESSONS and Chapter Tests are in our online classroom. These Lessons give the student detailed instructions on what to complete in the book as well as more examples, games and drills. The online tests and online assignments are graded and returned to the student by email.
- The student will be given 6 months to complete their course work. Most students require much less time so the 6 months is ample time to complete a 1 semester course. For example, if registration is completed on June 12 then the course work must be completed by December 12.
- A certificate (private web page) is offered after all of the course work (assignments and tests) is completed satisfactorily. A final grade and a listing of all scores on tests and assignments is given as well.
- Refunds given only within first 3 days and if no work submitted for grading.
Conduct of Students, Instructor and others using the Math in a Box workspace:
- Students are required to answer my emails, follow the order of the lessons (that is, not jump or skip lessons/assignments), be respectful, courteous, honest and truthful.
- The instructor will be sure that the student's emails are answered daily; if one is overlooked then a kind note to the instructor is appreciated.
- The student's submitted work will be graded daily and returned to the student by email.
