Description
Use diagrams and words to explore the very start of algebra, with puzzles and intuition guiding the way.
By the end of the course, you'll be able to simplify expressions and solve equations using methods that impart deep understanding rather than just procedures. You'll sharpen your problem solving strategies and explore what's really useful about algebra in the first place.
