BOB - Logics

I'd have to say that this unit was quite different from the units that we previously worked on. Some parts were easier for me, so I hope I'll be able to boost up my mark through this. The same goes with everyone else. To be honest, I found it confusing at first, but since it related to real life, I began seeing the concept in a different perspective where I can understand it better. It definitely got my mind going though. So, hopefully this test will be smooth sailing for everyone.

Good luck everyone!

Hey BoB .. you've got anything to say?...no? ...y?

Hey guys,
i couldn't get to class today. well, i had a doc. appointment, and then felt like i needed rest. so, anyhow...this unit i would say was pretty interesting and sometimes mentally challenging (well, not quite).
Logic + Statistics are my favourite branches of math, cuz they dont just relate to real life. They are real life lol. And in this unit, i would say i tried my best, and it went fairly good, accept that i missed the last day. anyways, I'm hopin that i didnt miss that much, and am looking forward for a good grade on this test.

Hope this test will boost up everyones average!

BOB TIMEE - LOGIC

My view on our logic unit was a fair stretch of our mind. I think we may have all found it difficult only because our state of mind and way of thinking differs from dealing with triangles and square roots. Some particular parts of this unit was very plain and simple (i.e: the venn diagrams). Others required more thought and time (i.e: deductive/inductive reasoning). Although everything was possible to solve with either a formula or a broad set of rules to be followed. I hope we all do well on this test. I know its getting harder to stay consitent with our motivation to do well because the course is so close to over. I know for myself, I find myself slacking because I'm just so ready to be done. I know it's not smart on my behalf and I can already see the consequences by suffering of overload before exams. I just need to straighten out and prepare myself with a logical matter! Okay. GOOD LUCK GUYS

I had a fun time BOBing. Hey guys its our last one!

I personally think that this logic unit was somekind of a very...very ... long stretch for my mind. I think that i struggle for the most part of this unit. Perhaps , the easiest thing in this unit was the venn diagrams and valid and invalid arguments. I think that I really have to study very hard tonight or else i'm done. Well thats it I hope that I didnt miss too much information from todays class. Study hard and keep your body away from sickness!! Good night

BOB

Another unit test coming up. For me, logic was a lot harder than I thought it would be. Even if it's not that easy, I personally enjoy the challenge of finding the solutions. I've had experience with these kinds of problems in junior high, so I have a good starting idea as to how to approach the question. I just hope that we all do really good on this test, and hopefully, I get the mark I've worked to get. 'Night!

BOB

This logic unit was interesting. It was cool getting back to the Venn-diagrams, bringing back the memories of arithmetic's in elementary. The good old days, everything was so simple. This unit got more difficult when we started the inductive and deductive reasoning. I'm still having trouble with that.

That's all, good luck to everyone tomorrow!

BOB v.6 The LOGICal Bob

Well I can't say the logic unit was straight forward since we now know about the paradoxes. It was fun though doing those paradox assignments on "A Usual Day at an Unusual School." Venn Diagrams were easy to do and so were the matrix problems. It felt like doing jr.high stuff but more advance. It was awesome learning logic in math class where we discuss things that barely have to do with numbers as compared to the other unit we're doing - consumer math. We discussed confusing things suchas "the inverse is the converse of the contrapositive" and the existence of counterexamples. Learning logic was fun and very interesting and the countdown begins for the logic test to show.

BOBing

This unit was alright, logic. It was difficult at first because I wasn't sure how to start solving the problems. I like doing problems where you figure out if it's a deductive information or inductive information. I also like doing problems where you verify if it's a valid argument or invalid argument.
What I found most difficult is when I try to figure out if the problem is a paradox or not. Proving that the square root of some numbers are irrational is also something that I find difficult as well. The consumer math stuff was alright. There were times where I didn't understand it, that was when the question asked about stuff I didn't know yet. My parents helped me, because they deal with this stuff all year round. Overall, consumer math was good and logic was quite difficult. Well, I'll see you all in class tomorrow fellow classmates and I hope you all study hard!

BOB for Logics test in 1day and 16 hours

In logic we had done logical work like indirect and direct reasoning, inductive and deductive reasoning and that is what I am having trouble in. I don't understand the difference between the 2 reasoning in each set. I don't understand the definition on inductive and deductive reasoning.
Something that I am getting the hang of the is the Venn-diagram questions. They seem to be the easiest parts of logic.
In conclusion good luck everybody on the test that is happening in 1 day and 15 hours and 15 minutes from when I post this BOB :-)

blogging on blogging - logic

Well, this unit has gone by pretty fast. Of course that's not including the two weeks break we had. So not including that, it hasn't really been that many classes. Logic has been one of the more interesting, fun topics. Venn Diagrams, once you understand the method of how you put them together, they're pretty straight forward. And personally, if i know how to do something, it always makes it fun because i understand it. As for inductive and deductive, that's okay. i had some trouble at first, but nothing i couldn't fix. And what we did in class today was fun as well as our homework. So this unit isn't too bad.

Honestly, i can't remember if Mr. k said to do a blog for this unit or not? A lot of things lately have just been a dream, haha, so I'm not too sure. But better to do this than not to! Well, good luck everyone.

This was ok but I had some confusion. I still need a little work on the valid, invalid stuff. I hope we all do well on this test. This unit was a short one but easy. Sorry my BOB is so short and I promise I will put my scribe post up tomorrow morning. I am having problems with my computer.

BOB v.5 BcircleB Circle Geometry

When I first thought about Circle Geometry, I first didn't know what the unit will be about, but as we continued on with the unit, I found out it was about the angles and lines which make up theorems. Doing the investigations were easy and straightforward because all we had to do was follow the instructions...but in the end, we had to memorize them all! Yeah, so circle geometry was really straightforward. The only difficult thing about this unit is where you have to prove something which can take a LOT of time to do and that's the only part I'm worried about. My goal is to get at least a 70% or above on the test (depending on how many "proof" questions there are) which is coming up in about...less than two hours!! XD So I'll cya all in 6th period!

BOB; circles

Circle Geometry was by far the hardest unit yet. It was alright at first because we went through it as a class, step by step. Although, I didn't always understand the investigation because of my poor measuring skills. But, when all ten investigations were done I finally understood it all. I find it more easier for me to understand things when I'm told of what to look for and practicing it, rather than finding it out myself. Most of the investigations, I didn't know what I found because my measuring skills aren't so good.
I'm happy that I reviewed before the pre-tests and quizzes because that's where it came in place, piece by piece I began to understand what was going on and why different angles are the same or two times larger. This happened on Thursday I believe. It was like someone had replaced a light bulb to the lighthouse in my head. However, I wasn't prepared enough. So, my options are study harder or study harder (haha).
The up side is, I understand the theorems and I look for different triangles and angles. The down-side is, sometimes I doubt myself and have second thoughts about some things, which makes me to change my answers (which were right in the beginning). But, most of the things, I understand. Well, I hope that everyone does well and studies hard. See you all tomorrow fellow class mates!

B.O.B.

Once again, a unit finished.
This semester is almost over too. (tear*)
The circle geometry unit was a lot of fun. I really liked this unit, mostly because it involves looking at a real image and trying to figure out measures. I like how everything all connects, when you find one part you can also find another. The trouble I have is remembering the theorems. I'll just have to look over my math dictionary more. That's all for now, good luck!!

BOB

I actually found this unit to be the easiest out of all the other units we've worked on. I have the whole concept down on what Circle geometry is all about. Remembering the names of the theorems is probably the only thing I have to get used to. Other than that, I think I'll finally be able to get this test down and get a well rounded mark from it. I hope it's the same with everyone else. Study hard, and Good luck!

BOB - Anatomy of Circles

Well well well. Another test, another BOB. I find myself saying that in every BOB entry I write. Anatomy of Circles... well it hasn't been my favourite unit but more of a reason to look foward to our test tomorrow (so it'll be the end of it). I don't know why but I guess this whole theory of circles is something I find hard to understand and process in my brain by myself. We'd be in class and Mr. K goes over it step by step and it seems to be okay. I understand the rules and different theoroms when I'm in class. However when I get home and is presented a question- I sometimes dont even know where to start. I guess it is the fact there is a broad number of ways to solve any given question. Well, hopefully we all pull through the test tomorrow. As for myself I don't expect myself to do incredibly well :(, since it is one of my weaker units.

WELL GOOD LUCK AND GOOD NIGHT :)

11 days until christmas!

BOB - circle geometry

Yet another unit test. I was supposed to have two tests tomorrow. One for pre cal, and one for chemistry. Luckily! my chemistry has been postponed to monday. haha. Well, this unit was really confusing for me. I found it difficult at first to prove everything. And i still haven't memorized all those theorems. :\ Well, lots of cramming tonight! Anyway, i'd like to become like, pro at this. so i'm going to keep practicing to keep myself familiar with it. Besides that everything is fine. I've spent my whole evening besides my brothers christmas concert on math, so it's time for my break. Happy holidays guys! And again, good luck tomorrow on the test. =)

B0B Natnael

Well, this unit as Cherieeee said was quite easy, and the thing that made it easy, i think, is that its pretty straight forward. I mean, right now we now whats on the test (at least the layout).

I think everyone will do very good on this test...and some excellent(its not u Lauressa..jk)

goodluck on the test everyone! ;D

BEEE - OHHH - BEEE (.. spells BOB)

Ahhhhhh! Another unit test!
Oh well, nothing to worry about. I honestly think that this unit, for me, was easier to understand than the ones we've had in the past. There's just something about circles, triangles and geometry that make them easy to learn. There were times when I hated this unit because of all the PROVING we needed to do. But I guess, the more proving we did in class, the easier it seemed, and my hatred lessened. Today we had the pretest in class, and I don't think I did my best. Although, I did put in my first effort, and got about 70% of the questions right! "Sweeeeeet!" Anyway, good luck to everyone on the test tomorrow!

BOB for the Circle Geometry Test

Hi everybody and in a few days it will be our circle geometry test and I'm almost ready. All I need to do is to study and get down all the stuff I miss about 2-3 weeks ago. I need to practice the recent work which is to prove somthing using the given info in a question which is not that bad but since it's new it doesnt hurt to do stuff. I need to get my theorems straight and finish the new review. That's all and good luck on the pre-test and test. =)
