Recognition and Memorization

Today we had a big class discussion and worked on our memorization skills. Throughout the class discussion, we used OneNote to organize our thoughts. OneNote is an amazing program that helps to organize all your work very efficiently and effectively. Watch this video to see more. After the class discussion, we were given the opportunity to ask any questions before we handed in a copy of our notes. Our notes were meant to show our thought process through the discussion and sample examples and memorization techniques. The most common technique is SOHCAHTOA, but I don't like that one at all. The one the teacher gave us is much easier to remember [Ophie had a hit of acid, and Ophie had a hangover]. The first letter of each word corresponds to the six trig function in order. Ophie had = o/h = Sin. During the class discussion we also talked about how you know when to use which function, which is pretty easy. That is what the quiz was on too, so I think I did pretty well.
