This unit has impacted many critical thinking and communication skills in by significantly improving my vocabulary for pre-calculus related concepts and units by giving more insight on how to turn a mathematical skill such as turning a variable into a negative variable (x -> (-x)) and how you can understand and verbalize what happens when you change the sign. As well my creative thinking has improved by learning with peers and asking questions to clarify concepts and learning by noticing patterns such as the opposite effect applied to a coordinate from a formula transformation.
