A COMPLETE
ONLINE ALGEBRA COURSE!
The Algebra Program is
- Divided into 6 modules
- Covers all the essential elements in
Pre-Algebra, Algebra 1, and Algebra 2
- Can be completed in one year if a
student does 1 lesson each day, 5 days a week. Two years if your
student does 1 lesson every other day.
Lessons are
- Only 5-10 minutes long
- Taught using computer generated
graphics and animation.
- Taught conceptually and for
mastery.
Students are
- Never taught tricks, shortcuts,
rules or formulas.
- Never asked to memorize
anything.
Rules and Formulas
- Just show up once the student(s)
learn the how, where and why of the concept
This program teaches you the language
of math!!!
How does this online program
work?
- To begin a lesson, the student is
told whether a quiz on a previous lesson is necessary.
- If a quiz is necessary, the
instructor will give the student access to the appropriate online
quiz or test, by clicking on the appropriate test icon. As well,
the test may be printed out for the student.
- The instructor will grade the
students test by clicking on the appropriate icon.
- Watch the new Video Lesson
online.
- Click on the prompt to automatically
bring up the appropriate Course Notes.
- Click on the prompt to automatically
bring up the appropriate WorkText pages.
- While viewing the exercises on the
screen, the student works on a separate sheet of paper.
- Click on the prompt to automatically
bring up the appropriate Solutions Manual pages.
- Click on the prompt to end the
lesson for the day.

The reason that we named our program "Algebra: A Complete
Course," is that we believe the best way to learn Algebra is to
start at the beginning and end at the end! In this program you will
find a complete study of the essential material covered in a
traditional Algebra 1 and Algebra 2 course.
However, we need to continue a little further
with this answer because Algebra 1 and Algebra 2 are terms that
refer mostly to the traditional way that Algebra has been taught.
Traditional Algebra 1 classes attempt to cover most of Algebra in
the first year, but the methods that are used, and the speed with
which the material is covered, hinders student understanding
of the material. Instead, the student is just exposed to memorizing
rules, formulas, tricks, and shortcuts. By the time they get to
what is called an Algebra 2 course, (sometimes after they
take a Geometry course), they have forgotten almost all of the
Algebra that they memorized. So, that Algebra 2 course
(which is by definition, a rehash of whatever has been called
Algebra 1), must repeat practically all of the Algebra 1
course. In fact, it usually repeats a lot of the Pre-Algebra
material as well. This is usually referred to as the "spiral
method" of learning, and it is not very effective in
helping students to excel, especially at this level of
mathematics.
We think that this huge overlap is generally
unproductive, and largely unnecessary if the concepts are taught
analytically. Therefore we call our program "Algebra: A Complete
Course," because we employ a mastery-learning approach, sometimes
moving at a slower pace, but without the overlap. As a result,
students often complete the course even more quickly.
When a student
completes Geometry: A Complete
Course
along with Algebra: A Complete
Course, the
publisher states that the student will gain four math
credits -
Algebra 1, Algebra 2, Honors Geometry and Pre-Calculus.
