Algebra: A Complete Course (Videotext)

[Partial review] This unusual course actually combines pre-algebra through algebra 2 (including serious work with functions) concepts in a single course. If you are considering starting this at the pre-algebra level, you should know that most pre-algebra courses cover geometry, measurement, and other topics that are beyond the scope of this course. This course focuses on number concepts that are foundational for algebra: fractions, decimals, operations, prime numbers, signed numbers, etc. It continues, teaching algebraic concepts in a different sequence than is common to most other programs. Equations and inequalities are taught together, concepts are developed in order of degrees (e.g., first degree equations, then second degree equations), and it strives to follow a logical continuity from lesson to lesson as much as possible.
