This video is part of a new vlog series for courses at UIC in which key concepts for a quizzes and exams will be highlighted to provide supplement information for courses that have proven to be challenging for students. The goal is to breakdown down information that may be difficult to grasp during class to allow students to develop a sound conceptual understanding of material that will appear on tests. It is important to note that this vlog series is only meant to be used as a supplement to lecture slides, homework, and discussion worksheets/problem sets. One cannot solely rely in these videos to do well in their class; rather, if one is struggling with a certain concept or in need of seeing the application of the concept, this series will aid in improving their overall knowledge.
