Session 1

Quadratic functions & equations

Quadratic equations show up everywhere in higher level math. In this session, we will review quadratics and consider a variety of challenging real world applications, ranging from optimization to projectile motion.

Session 2

Systems of equations

Systems of equations problems are a must-know for real world STEM applications and higher level mathematics -- algebra I systems provide the foundations of more complex systems that one considers later on. During this session, we will cover a short review of systems of equation theory and spend most of our time one engaging practice/challenge problems to practice applying these skills.

Session 3

Exponential growth & decay

Have you ever wondered how people pick between different financial plans with differing interest rates? What about how scientists model the growth of bacteria? This session will focus on a variety of practice problems applying exponential functions to real world situations.

Session 4

Absolute value & piecewise functions

Absolute value functions are often underrated in their importance, as are piecewise functions. During this session, a focus on problem solving around piecewise and absolute value functions will let us consider where they might be applied in real world projects.
