Reinforcement and repetition of visual examples (i.e. dimensional analysis) has proven to be an integral part of mastering the math involved in Chemistry, Forensics and IPC. This mastery of math that I am seeking is not just for daily assignments. Said knowledge will empower the students further in daily applications long after the classroom time has ended. We convert recipes, appliance wattage, electricity, bills and budgets, current event statistics and probabilities, keeping a checkbook and writing checks, etc. The applications are unending. I am determined to build a platform of knowledge that will answer the question, "When will we ever use this in life?".
