 I've been meaning to put modules together for math for a long time. Take a lot of the content that we've created and glue them together with text, exercises I used to have online, but Google killed some of the stuff they had, so exercises got killed. But basically take the videos I've had online that I've made for the last long time. So long. In 2007, so 17 years of math content, hundreds of videos. Take that. Make additional math videos. Take that, cut them up, put them together with text, and create modules. So basic idea is this. Here's our module number one. I'll tell you what it's going to be. Module number one, have text, have video, have exercises, have text, have video, have or set of videos, exercises, exercises, and etc. And depending on the module that we're going to create, whatever we're going to talk about, the layout is basically this, but basically merging text, video, and exercises, trying to get people to learn, help people learn a certain module, and a module being a certain topic, geared towards teaching something. Start at a certain point and go to, at the end, to be able to learn something. So the first module we're going to do, we're going to do this, okay, we're going to do this. Our first module is how to deal with fractions, right? Dealing with fractions. I'm just going to do short form right now, dealing with fractions. And I'm going to create this, I'll make a flow chart really nice and stuff like this. I just want to give you guys a lowdown of what I'm going to be working towards as long as soon as some of the chaos around me subdues a little bit, right? Dealing with fractions is one of the most important things that people need to learn. Fractions is one of the first things that takes people out of the game, right? So I thought it was important to deal with the fractions first, because that'll help out a lot of parents that are homeschooling, especially elementary school and early high school, because that aspect of education in county United States has completely, it's been annihilated, right? Ennihilated, right? So when we're going to do this, this is what we're going to start off with. We're going to start off with the real number set. Whole numbers, whole numbers, integers, rational and irrational numbers. One of my first videos I ever put out was this, graffiti style, under a bridge in Vancouver. Important video. And we're going to redo that in this format. And when we're doing the module, creating modules, there's going to be text gluing everything together, putting it together, right? And there's going to be little segments, longer videos as well as little segments, to make sure the people who can't focus for an extended period of time get the little gist of it in little sound bites as well, right? And the most important thing about the real number set is, aside from the transition from natural to whole numbers being zero, from whole numbers to integers being negatives, from integers to rational numbers is fractions, okay, and irrational numbers being really connected up to primes and special numbers such as pi, right? To be able to understand this, and we've talked about this, we've laid this out and what not, right? The most important thing you need to get at this, at the beginning stages, the first thing you need to understand about mathematics to get into this is prime numbers, okay? Because prime numbers govern irrational numbers, for the most part, and prime numbers is the building block of the real number set, really, right? So prime numbers are ridiculously important, we'll focus on that as well, and we put a lot of videos on that stuff, right? Okay, because this is the building block, block of real number set, okay? So we're going to have a flow chart explaining all that stuff. Once we start talking about prime numbers, we're going to lay it all out, right? And by the way, this is the way I teach my students from the beginning when I get them, when I work with them, if they're just starting out the basics, right? And each student is different. Sometimes you need to focus on this, focus on this, focus on this, focus on this. That's why centralized indoctrination is pure garbage, because centralized indoctrination cannot meet the needs of individuals, right? Individuals extremely important, extremely important, right? But once we talk about the real number set, understand what prime numbers are, then you get into the operations, operations of adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing. And all of those are just an extension of addition, right? Subtraction is adding negative numbers, multiplication is adding the same number multiple times, and division is seeing a certain number, how many times a certain number goes into another number, right? The reverse of multiplication, right? What we will be doing is focusing on addition, subtraction, multiplication. I got my little flow chart here. I just generated this yesterday, but I know it from bottom of my heart. Like, just, I've been doing this for so long, I know this very well, and I fine-tune it again based on the student, right? So, oops, multiplication and division. And division is really important because it's related to rational numbers, which is fractions, right? Because rational numbers are just numbers that you can express as fractions of integers plus or minus whole numbers, I guess, if you want to think about it, right? Now, once we deal with this, we will mention the equal sign, which is really about solving. So, there's two types of operations you do in mathematics. One of them is simplifying, the other one is solving. When you're simplifying, you're really dealing with the operations. When you're solving, you need to know how to simplify before you can start solving, right? That's the general flow of how the information is going to be presented, and that's the general flow of the way you should start thinking about this stuff, right? Now, Q, which is really the rational numbers, rational numbers, which is really just fractions, which is anything that you can write as a fraction of integers, really means, initially, the first introduction to it, aside from ratios, because we won't get into ratios yet, is fractions is part of a whole, part of a whole, right? Why are fractions important? Because if you don't know how to deal with fractions, fractions, if you don't know how to deal with fractions, then your whole life is going to be whole numbers, right? That means you'll never be able to eat an apple, or half an apple. You'll only be able to eat one whole apple, because you won't understand what a half means, right? You'll never be able to eat half a watermelon, because you won't understand what half a watermelon means. You can only eat whole watermelons, right? I know that sounds ludicrous, because it is. If you don't understand fractions, that means you haven't lived. So we, as human beings, have an innate understanding of fractions. We're just adding a syntax to it, right? Being able to quantify fractions in a way in the language of mathematics for us to be able to do higher level mathematics, to take that information, expand on what we mean as part of a whole, right? Once we hit up fractions, again, we're going to be dealing with adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing. Because the initial phase of the operations, adding, subtracting, and multiplying, is going to be based on natural numbers, whole numbers, and integers, right? Natural numbers, whole numbers, and integers. Once we hit division, that's when we're going to get into rational numbers, right? And once we get into rational numbers, we start dealing with fractions, then we have to relearn, or learn the process of how we add, subtract, multiply, oops, and divide fractions, right? Okay, again, that's the flow of information coming at you, right? And once you understand this, then you can start introducing the equal sign. Let's do it this way. Let's write it out this way. Once we hit this, then we can bring in solving, okay? Which is really learning how to deal with the equal sign. So let's just write that up. Learning, learning how to deal with the equal sign. Which is basically solving for equations, solving for the unknown, right? Solving for the unknown. And all of these, in each step along the way, in each step along the way, we're going to have examples, okay? Examples are going to be practice problems, practice questions, and stuff related to math and real life, applied in the real world, applied. Math in real life, math in real life. And then you have your exercises. And these two are going to be embedded at every step along the way. And the text plus videos is going to be what glues it all together, okay? And this is the way I teach my students. This is really, there's a little minor tangents that we go off depending on the student. I mean, we'll probably encounter those as well as we're generating this first module, this first module. And what we'll do is we will put out a booklet with the text and titles of videos and exercises and stuff. And the content will be compiled together into a specific, its own section with the text available online as well, with the videos embedded within the article. It's going to be a lot of work. I still have to figure out what the best way to do this is without being censored, de-platformed, off of, you know, by technocrats, right? But what I want this stuff, what these modules that we're going to create, especially this first module, incredibly important, because this is going to be laying out the foundation of how we're going to go about things, right? So we're going to spend a fair bit of time on this fine-tuning things, figuring out what the best way is to present this information, is to really have this available in a format where it's going to help educators. And educators could be teacher, could be a mentor, could be parents, especially parents because homeschooling is kicking up like mad, and parents are desperate, as well as students to be able to take this module and either help someone learn it or learn it themselves, okay? I want this to become a resource where people can go. I want to learn how to deal with fractions. How do I learn how to deal with fractions? And they go here, and by the end of it, when they get spat out, right? They come out and go, wow, I know how to deal with fractions. That's my plan. Now there's a saying that says, if you want to make God, if you believe in such things, if you want to make God laugh, tell him or her your plans. Well, this is my plan. Let's see who's going to laugh. I can guarantee you we'll have it out, okay? There's been a lot of people that are supporting this work on Patreon for a number of years, and I promised people that I was going to do this a long time ago, right? And we got caught up with a lot of things. So huge, huge respect to all of you who remain on Patreon supporting this work, huge respect to everyone that's been supporting this work for this long. We're getting into the final stages of it or the beginning stages of it, you know, the final stage of one phase and the beginning stages of another phase, where we're going to start dealing with the stuff, okay, producing the stuff. And I'll try my best to stay on top of it, make sure we do it. And my plan is to have my guesses, this is going to take a year, okay? By the end of 2024, maybe sooner, hopefully in the summer when I have a lot of time, we will have the first, you know, one-on-one version of this out, okay? And then we can fine-tune it from there, fun, fun, fun. I can't wait, I can't wait. I just want to give you guys a little down of what's going on in my mind and where I am, okay? And give huge, huge kudos to the people who've been supporting this work on Patreon. There's been a lot of you guys, some of you guys that have been there for a very, a lot of you guys that have been there for a very long time, very long time. And I will definitely make sure your support is you're happy with supporting this work, as well as on other platforms, gang. Again, we'll put it all up, we'll put it all up, we'll put it all up, we'll put it all up, and more, and more, okay? And a huge thanks to the mods, gang. I'm just going to read the chat a little bit, just because I saw some stuff popping up, but I didn't want to lose my train of thought.
