Students will be able to solve complex mathematical problems
more quickly by using mental math to solve simpler parts of the
problems without using calculators. They will do this by learning
and memorizing rules for the multiplication, division, addition
and subtraction of integers; they will use mental math in games,
word problems, and drills. They will show mastery of skills
throughout the course by solving problems in front of their
classmates in groups (ie. teaching each other how to solve
problems), culminating in a ‘final exam’ for the instructor!
