B.O.B. - Progress

I have progressed pretty far since day one of this class. On the first day I sat down in a group with my friends expecting another "I'm going to syllabus you to death" class period. Instead I was given a review sheet which seemed like it could have easily been a final exam for AP Calculus. I didn't even remember what domain or range meant! But now that review stuff has come back to me and it all comes pretty easily now. But for the other problems we're working on in class it doesn't come so easily at times. When we first start learning and working on a new type of problem it takes a few problems for me to catch on but after working on a few by myself and checking the answers I gain confidence in what I'm doing and then the problems become much easier. The answer keys online help when I'm trying to catch on because they show you step by step how to do it and not just the answer. If I still don't understand something my classmates can help me or Mr. Jackson can if they can't. I don't feel like I've progressed very much but when I look back at the problems we did the first couple of weeks of class I realize that they are so much easier than they used to be and easier than the problems we're doing now. So not only have I progressed, the problems have too.
