The Basics of Math—Made Clear
121
Basic Math introduces students to the basic concepts of mathematics, 122
as well as the fundamentals of more tricky areas. These 30 fantastic 123
lectures are designed to provide students with an understanding of 124
arithmetic and to prepare them for Algebra(代数) and beyond.
125
The lessons in Basic Math cover every basic aspect of arithmetic. 126
They also look into exponents(指数), the order of operations, and square 127
roots. In addition to learning how to perform various mathematical operations, students discover why these operations work, how a particular 128
129
mathematical topic relates to other branches of mathematics, and how
these operations can be used practically.
130
131
Basic Math starts from the relatively easier concepts and gradually
132
moves on to the more troublesome ones, so as to allow for steady and sure
133
understanding of the material by students. The lectures offer students
134
the chance to “make sense” of mathematical knowledge that may have
135
seemed so frightening. They also help students prepare for college
mathematics and overcome their anxiety about this amazing—and 136
137
completely understandable—field of study.
138
By the conclusion of the course, students will have improved their
understanding of basic math. They will be able to clear away the 139
140
mystery(神秘性) of mathematics and face their studies with more
141
confidence than they ever imagined. In addition, they will strengthen
142
their ability to accept new and exciting mathematical challenges.
143
Professor H. Siegel, honored by Kentucky Educational Television as
144
“the best math teacher in America,” is a devoted teac her and has a gift
for explaining mathematical concepts in ways that make them seem clear 145
146
and obvious. From the basic concrete ideas to the more abstract problems,
147
he is master in making math lectures learner-friendlier and less scary. 148
With a PhD in Mathematics Education from Georgia State University,
149
Dr. Siegel teaches mathematics at Central Arizona College. His courses
150
include various make-up classes and a number of lectures for future
151
primary school teachers.

If the course fails to provide complete satisfaction to you, you can
153
easily exchange it for any other course that we offer. Or you can get
