The Metric System: Metric and Scientific Notation - This lesson describes the history and basic operation of the metric system as well as scientific notation. The simplicity of the metric system stems from the fact that there is only one unit of measurement (or base unit) for each type of quantity measured (length, weight, etc.).
Unit Conversion: Dimensional Analysis - This module provides an introduction to the Dimensional Analysis method (i.e. the Factor Label Method) of converting among units of measurement and solving mathematical problems.
Using MyClassroom for Students: Student Help Page - This module is designed to introduce students to the features of the Visionlearning MyClassroom system.
Visionlearning: An Introduction - This module provides an overview of the resources available at Visionlearning and the teaching philosophy behind these resources.
