Tutorials for High School Mathematics presents twenty-six online tutorial lessons designed to help students review high school mathematics topics. The topics are basic to student success in post-secondary science, computer science, and engineering courses.
Each tutorial lesson features a short video of a teacher reviewing the key mathematical procedures and ideas and demonstrating their application. Students are encouraged to work along as they watch the video. Several videos require the use of a graphing calculator. After viewing the video, students should take the Self-Check to evaluate their understanding of the topic. In addition to the video and Self-Check, each tutorial includes a printable copy of the video presentation and provides a list of additional online resources for further study.
