Although I got my butt kicked this week on KA trying to get through the Multivariable Calculus Course, I’m happy with my overall effort this week and what I was able to learn. I only got through seven questions on the C.C. but watched five videos from the Engineering Math: Vector Calculus and Partial Derivative Equations playlist made by… Read More Week 251 – A Tough Course Challenge, a New Perspective, and a Better Week

I’m incredibly relieved to say that this was the best week I’ve had on KA in literally months. I FINALLY finished the Green’s, Stokes’, and the Divergence Theorems unit test and, even more surprisingly, actually think I’ve gotten over the hump of understanding the gradient, curl, and divergence operations in vector calculus. The tipping point came after… Read More Week 250 – 20 Weeks Later, Vector Calculus Finally Starts to Click!

This week compared to the past few weeks wasn’t too bad. I didn’t study for five hours which is always my goal, so in that sense it was a fail, but I made it through a bunch of videos and three exercises, AND surprised myself by getting the correct solution to all the questions in… Read More Week 249 – Three Exercises, a Perfect First Attempt, and Signs of Progress

I had another pitiful, write-off type of week on KA. I watched eight videos and attempted one exercise on Green’s Theorem but didn’t pass the exercise. I’ll go into more detail below, but I still don’t have a great understanding of what the hell is happening with G.T. which is super disappointing considering I’ve been… Read More Week 248 – Green’s Theorem: Better at Reading the Math, Still Struggling to Solve It
