1.       Name: Cheryl Foland

2.       No nick name

3.       Height: 70’

4.       Age: 64 (wow, that is embarrassing!- be glad you're getting a degree now while you’re still young)

5.       Wake up time: 5-5:30 am

6.       Favorite Candy: Mango’s covered in Dark Chocolate (from Costco)

7.       Favorite Snack Food: Fritos and Cashews (a salt fanatic)

8.       Favorite Musical band/artist: I don’t have one particular groups or artists; I have many favorite songs  such as:  Elvis Presley “Memories” Fleetwood Mac “ You make Loving Fun” or “Dreams“, Michael Jackson “Thriller”, Lee Ann Womack “I hope you Dance” or Mel Carter “Hold me, Thrill Me Kiss Me”, usually because they are attached to a memories.

9.       Hobbies: snuggle with a pup named Harvey, hike & spend time outdoors, spend time with my husband and kids, historical novels and a good glass of wine

10.   Mathematical background: limited: I have taught basic math skill to students K-9, took Algebra/Trig in high school and bombed…..dropped out and enrolled in a Business math class and got an A, took one class in college for my AA and have never tried again…attitude: “I’m bad at math”….requires an attitude adjustment…..working on it.  Maybe this class will be a turning point.

11.   Comfort level with Math: Not really  sure I understand the differences

·         Word Problems: (U)for me, the hard part is not the calculations it’s understanding the words and how to translate that into a mathematical problem

·         Application Problems: (C or E), not really sure if I know what this means.  I work with computer applications here at CU, but somehow I don’t think that is the type of application you mean. If you mean taking real life/practical problems and applying mathematical expressions to calculate the answer, then I am somewhat comfortable (but if it means something else them probably extremely uncomfortable.

·         Conceptual Problems: (U) I feel abstract concepts and ideas are particularly difficult for me.

12.   Comfort level with Math

·         Computations and Calculations:  (V) I  feel very comfortable here; after years of memorizing my addition and multiplication tables

·         Using formulas: (C) I feel comfortable using formula’s in excel and for basic calculation, but Excel makes you realize how powerful these can be and would definitely like to know more

·         Following Steps and Procedures: (V) I feel very comfortable following steps and procedures; in fact I am lost without them, and don’t consider myself good at conceptualizing. (I need the instruction manual, have no idea what to do if you just hand me the parts)

13.   Comfort level with the following algebraic & Pre-Calculus Concepts: (U) I  have an idea about many of these but could use a review of all of the listed topics

14.   I have not taken any other QRMC courses

15.   Social Media I am familiar with: Texting and Facebook (what about e-mail?)

16.   Social Media formats I use most frequently: Texting and Facebook

17.   I am a Communications major

18.   I am taking this class to fulfill the math requirement

19.   I will probably not take another Math class; other than this class, I only need 1 other class to complete my BA.

20.   I hope to become a better at solving problems that require mathematical reasoning and enhance my critical thinking skills.
