Scientific Notation, the Metric System, and Unit Conversions are used in every branch of math and science including Algebra, Calculus, Physics, and Chemistry. In the course of solving problems the student will need to convert between various units in order to solve the problem. For example, if solving a Physics problem it may be necessary to convert between centimeters per second to kilometers per hour in order to correctly solve the problem. Frequently it is confusing on whether it is necessary to multiply or divide by the appropriate conversion factor in order to convert units. This DVD will teach you bulletproof ways to arrange your units and cancel them so that you are never left guessing how to convert to the proper units needed for the problem at hand. This DVD course teaches the techniques of the most common unit conversions by fully worked example problems. This DVD is not intended to be a reference DVD for all unit conversions that you will encounter in class. More importantly, the strategies associated with unit conversions is emphasized such that the student will be comfortable applying any conversion factor necessary to solve the problem - even those not found on this disk. This DVD is essential for any student taking Math, Science, Physics, Algebra, Chemistry, or any other class where knowledge of Scientific Notation, the Metric System, and Unit Conversions is needed.
