Opthalmic Fabrication is the course that will really strenghten my math skills! The first day Rebecca asked who hates Math, and I shot up my hand LOL, after she explained more in depth that we mostly do Algebra, I was so relief. Not only did the sound of her saying Algebra brought peace of mind to my ears but when she set us up in groups and I got to meet Waleska and Malinda brought very much comfort. I love that we get the chance to learn from our peers, Malinda and Waleska were very helpful and taught me multiple ways to conprehend the material. I love group work, we get to know each other better but also learn skills off each other. The first day of class was very memorable, class was interrupted due to a gas leak in the building, having us to evacuate the building. It was a very cold morning too! Unfortunately some of us were feeling dizzy, so class was dismissed early. For the first week, I’ve learned many new terms like Ocular Dexter which is your right eye! Oculus Sinister is the left eye. I enjoy looking through the glossary and finding the definitions, it’s not only beneficial for us but as I skimmed around some terms stood out to me that I was able to read about.
My favorite Math problems were negative/positive addition and subtraction, I was able to pick up on it. My least favorite is Calculating percentages! That one is a challenge! I’m looking forward to bettering myself on that portion. Overall I really enjoy class and the professor, Rebecca is great and I’m excited to learn more !
