    3.0 Problems In the Process of Creating the Tool We encountered a lot of problems during the process of doing the project, mainly in three perspectives. First is the lack of coding ability, none of us had prior coding experience before and the only Excel knowledge we know is what TAs taught us in the lab.

    College of San Mateo, and I felt so unconfident in the classroom because I was not a native speaker. There were also moments in my college classes where I felt empowered because of my strengths; for example, I felt empowered in my Math-120 and pre-calculus class because I already knew the concepts of these classes. I had a lot of moments in my life where I felt empowered and disempowered as a student, but learning from those moments helped me to succeed in my college classes. I felt disempowered in

("Mathematics dictionary definition | mathematics defined", 2016) It is a subject that is simple as well as complex. Over the years I have learned that math is not my cup of tea. I think I liked it more when I was younger, when it was simple, and easier. I guess you could say that I liked basic math, like adding, subtracting, and multiplying. Growing up, I actually

Mathematics is everything. Look around, with clear eyes, and

Whenever I am in a math class, whether it was my Algebra I class or my AP Calculus class, I am constantly thinking to myself “How were these mathematicians able to correlate how certain numbers had some type of relationship with a figure or equation such as the Pythagorean Theorem”?

    Why Is Algebra Important

    • 3 Pages

    Algebra When I decided to return to school to get my degree I did not think that much about which courses I would be required to take. I knew there were basic classes such as English, Science, History and Math, and then the courses that would be required for my degree. I knew I would be taking Algebra at some point but was not expecting it to be so early on. I am not sure I see a lot of need for Algebra itself in Human Resources, but I do know that I need it to graduate. I do not feel I am being
