Avg Customer Rating: 
Product Description: Whether the thought of pre-algebra stirs terror in your heart or you love math and want to jump ahead of the class, this educational video will get you up to speed in an organized--and sometimes entertaining--manner. Aimed at high-school and college students, this 90-minute video lesson begins with integer exponents, works its way through prime factorization and roots, and ends with inequalities. A series of actors explain the concepts with the occasional interruptions of skits featuring doofus guys or fake news broadcasts ("Let's go live to the Mathcam"). Just in case this sounds too frivolous, the Standard Deviants series comes Ph.D.-approved and has won Telly Awards in the educational videos category. Reference cards with the course outline and relevant formulas and definitions help students navigate the mathematical waters. --Kimberly Heinrichs

New Math Made Simple
As with all of the Standard Deviants educational series, the presentation is zany, and what you need to know is simply explained. It holds your interest so you don't get bored with the dry subject matter. To compare DVD format to regular video, the DVD has much more versatility because of its interactive testing capabilities. The viewer has an option to test and review the subject matter by using the remote keypad. These little tests are helpful for making sure you understand the points covered. The Pre-Algebra DVD covers math terminology, explaining each term so that it's easy-to-understand. Then they show you how it works. It takes the mystery out of math terms that intimidate all of us who didn't learn the "new math" during our school years. By viewing this DVD, I experienced a personal breakthrough in my struggle to learn the "new math". It was a tremendous help to me. I highly recommend it to others who struggle with this subject, especially parents and grandparents who found themselves unable to understand their kid's math homework. This subject brings it together for us so we can understand what our kids are learning.
